The Mop | Official Thread

Just ordered mine...I've been scarce around here lately but had to come back and say something in here. I always LOVED when NZ would post his stories. So glad to see that this project got to see the light of day. I feel privileged being able to support this and everyone involved. Can't wait to get it.
 
The porn theater your brother used to own wasn't the Jefferson was it? I used to hear mad stories about that place when I was younger.
 
Nah. Not Portland.





The Mercury or WW did a story, years ago now, about how the owner of the Jefferson disappeared in the middle of some legal dispute and the manager just kept it running.


IIRC the article speculated that he was either; alive and well in Thailand, or had been murdered.

I especially enjoyed the 90-minute wait for it to be processed at the Zollamt :icegrill: where I was made to open the package before I could leave with it. I got a teeny bit nervous when I saw the (thankfully cropped) picture of a girl getting eaten out that was pasted onto the box, and wondered what else might come tumbling out when I opened it. Then I remembered I'm in Germany now, and they're not so uptight about that shit.





Digging the whole package - really beautifully done. It's a good read, too. I like the pulpy, journalistic vibe, and Alan's "voice" is warm and good-humoured enough to soften the edge of all the gross-out moments, many of which will make you wince, but which are vivid enough at times to put you right there amongst it. Great, sleazy fun.





A+++++ would definitely buy from this seller again.
 
finished last night. very enjoyable read....too many quotables to reference, but the imagery was just amazing (and frightening at the same time).





congratz again.
 
finished the book this past weekend. good read overall. had me crackin up a lot. some of the descriptions were perfect.


i think i wouldve handled things a bit differently had i been in the same situation, in front of 20 thai businesswomen in a porn shop.


good work nz, thes, and pl70 on an amazing package (pause)
 
My Mother-In-Law is all proud that I wrote a book. She asked for a copy. I just sent it with the following inscription:





Dear J****,


Please don't read this book.








Christmas is gonna be a barrel of laughs this year.
 
I read it in about two days, couldn't put it down. Sunday before last (I've been meaning to post but haven't been able to find the time) saw me sat down the pub on me todd, full pack of smokes and a pitcher of beer, sat outside in lovely FL sunshine reading about this delightful underworld.





When I finished it that night (back at home) I shucked my head back, put my hands over my face and chuckled. Two weeks later I still don't know if I was laughing or crying... Definitely a good read!





Starting the book during lunch with a sandwich in one hand, book in the other reading that first page was a bit off putting, though.
 
Finally got mine today!! Looks good. Also a 45 and a test pressing of the 45?!? I like it.





I've read it before, but I might read it again ;)

Doubles for the price of one?!?!?
 
I still have a couple 45 labels left if anyone wants one.

Didn't Cooper proof read this?


Gash.





But I'm hooked. Satan's spaghetti: YES.
