Imponderable #65: Clayton Cubitt

19 Oct

October 19, 2012

Going against the tradition of The Imponderable, Clayton Cubitt is not a place, he is a man. Read on.

And now, purely in the interest of science and research, are his videos.

WARNING: NOT SAFE FOR WORK.
And please, be over 18. While there is NO nudity or profanity here, this is not for kids.

I decided that it was in the best traditions of journalism that I present all four videos. And how about that Alicia? If those girls don’t make you a fan of literature I don’t what will. And if you are a true cosmopolitan bibliophile, follow the links at the end of the videos for foreign versions.

And as far as mocking a Victorian theory of hysteria in women, give me a break. Some guys will say anything to get a woman to do some things. The man, btw, lives in my neck of the woods, Brooklyn NY. I would love to run into him some day.

I did some research into this (in the name of journalistic integrity) and the women are either burlesque performers or adult movie stars, and what is going on below the table is probably just what you think is going on below the table. This is real.

But what is it? Art? Well, I guess it is, if only in the sense that everything today is art. Is it a statement? The artist seems to think so but I don’t believe him.

Is this simply the extreme that a man will go to just to get a sexual thrill?

The question is Imponderable. But the answer is probably yes.

You watched all four of those videos, didn’t you? 😉

Imponderable #64: Singapore

12 Oct

October 12, 2012

Before you read this, I want you to know that there were hundreds of comments after this article, many claiming that it was photoshopped or a fake, but the vast majority defended it under various grounds and reasons. For my own two cents, I believe it. I’ve seen many worse baby names.

In the comment section that followed, it was pointed out by some that the name “Suparman” is a common name in Singapore. True or not, I’m going to ignore that in favor of humor.

Who would name their son Batman? No one claimed that Batman is a common name in Singapore so I assume that it was deliberate. Why would anyone do that? Why open up your son to a world of teasing and schoolyard bullying?

Of course, maybe he really is Batman, son of Superman. Really nice of Superman to name his son after his best friend. And with DC’s habit of rebooting their titles and franchises, this could be the next Batman secret origin.

Why would anyone name their son “Batman son of Superman”?

The question is Imponderable.
