Spying on your own family
Not me, but my new boss. He's American: the most Republican, gun-owning, good ol' boy you can imagine. The first time he came to Europe I took him out to dinner and tried to make non-work related conversation in order to get to know him. He'd just moved house so we were talking houses and gardens, and told me that he had a lovely little play house in the garden which was a miniature replica of his own house. How sweet, I thought. Then he said, "But I haven't put the CCTV in there yet."

"Oh", I said, "are you worried about burglars in the play house?"
"No, no", he replied, "I just like to know what my family are up to. I have cameras in all the rooms of the house. I can access them via the internet so I can see what my wife and children are up to any time of the day or night while I'm at work or travelling."

After that I found that I could not discuss politics, climate change, health care, gun ownership and a host of other topics with him, as they exposed the massive gaps between our points of view. And this is my boss, so I have to at least get on with him. So now we only discuss work.

Set up a spoof website selling CCTV for the vagina,
then send him a link, and see if he buys ones for his wife.

Spoof?
I'm sure they exist. There's probably a community.

Nothing creepy or disturbing or completely fucking unhinged about this. No siree Bob.

You mean it's not normal to spend all day every day wanking over footage of your own kids?

Oh God
I can't remove this image from my brain. An image of my boss...

Could be worse, though.
Could be YOUR kids.

Wanking over footage of his boss?

Footage of his kids wanking over his boss's kids while his boss holds the camera.
And Smale is wanking while watching the video.

Are you spying on me?

If so, surely I should win this week.
Third-hand voyeurism.

Third hand wanking you mean?

(Smale is stuffed, Tue 7 Jan 2014, 15:27, closed)

I'm wanking to every single post in this thread.

I'm wanking to posts that aren't even here
I just think they should be.
