So my pal Jeff learned a very important lesson about the internet this weekend. And at his expense I have turned it into a joke for all of us to share and him to be humiliated by (see link below). You see, not only did he learn a lesson - but so did I.

I was hanging out with him and his brother at my house and camming it while watching movies (Meet Joe Black - a not so shitty chick flick - but with a fabulous scene of Brad Pitt getting hit by a car - we watched it in super slo mo twice and laughed our asses off). I was summoned away by another pal of mine (Jason) who had an internet connection as well and was having computer problems. I told Jeff I would be leaving the cam on in case he wanted to try it out, make goofy faces, flick people off, etc. And I told him that I would be tuning in once I got there so he could show off for our pals at Jason's house how my cam works.

Well, I got there and was telling Jason this was Jeff's "first time" so to speak and that we were to call him and show him the joy of being stared at by strangers while talking to them on the phone. (My mother calls me up to let me know that she approves of what I am wearing, and to take the old nail polish off and do something with my hair at regular intervals - so I wanted to see what it looked like from her end of the spectrum).

Jeff was all animated inthe pics as he was on the phone with us (Jeff actually needs no help looking animated, he has hair the color of a sunkist orange). We tuned in to the last six pics so we could get the full "Jeff" effect. Well, the first couple of pics were of him on the phone all wide eyed and waving at the cam. The second one was a smile at the cam. Then the next one was of his belt buckle - and I got scared. Then the final glory of his no-shame attitude confirmed my fear. Yep, you guessed it - he mooned my cam.

Jason was right on the ball as soon as he saw it and saved the pic (why, I don't know - but he emailed it to me so we could show Jeff what it looked like.) I was shocked and dismayed. First, i angrily thought "what a blatant disrespect of my site and me." - then the obligatory "I wonder who tuned in for that - namely - did my mom see this?" and third and possibly the most horrifying one - "I hope no one thinks that's MY ass."

I got home and Jeff immediately apologized for his actions and then proceeded to tell me that he didn't know my site was a no nudity (and most importantly no nudity of Jeff's ass) site and then told me that while I was on my way home he also showed a picture of a playboy centerfold as well as made obscene gestures at the cam towards "all the ladies in the house." Great.

Now it's my turn. "Here Jeff, check out that great ass scene you showed everyone"

Jeff: (laughing) "Yep, that's my ass alright. That was pretty funny of me - i bet you fumed on the way home about it"

Me:(yes I did fume - but I plotted as well) "you know Jeff, I'm gonna keep this picture as a memorable keepsake of this moment. In fact, I am going to make it into a Moment for Us. You even made it easy as I don't have to look up anything on the internet - i can just blast this pic up and leave it up for the archives so everyone can enjoy it - and not just people reading this within the time I post it."

Jeff: (looking concerned): "You can't do that - you don't have my permission to put that up there"

This is where I show Jeff the copyright and notice on my site and explain that not only can i post it here, i can post it ANYWHERE as I am the one that actually owns the pic now. Jeff is screaming now, telling me that he is gonna hack into my account (please note that Jeff has no email or computer nor knows how one works). Then I laughed - a lot - over my small victory.

I made a deal with Jeff. I will only post the pic here and not with his face attached. He in turn will never even glance at my computer again.

Note to self: Make sure cam is turned off and Jeff is no where near it without adult supervision.
