Slog - Comments on Unearthed While Cleaning Out My Office http://slog.thestranger.com/2008/02/unearthed_while_cleaning_out_my_office_1 A ball point pen from The Holiday Inn, Alpena Michigan; one "snugger fit" Lifestyles lubricated condom that expired on 07/2001; artwork that was *almost* a tramp stamp, I mean, a "lower back tattoo" drawn by my now ex-boyfriend; and some Polaroid pictures of "Santa" from a Christmas Drunk of the Week column......

Jealous? That other people have to hunch over computer screens in cube-farms in perpetual fear that one of their co-workers will catch them slacking off by looking at naughty bits on SLOG, while I on the other hand, sit in my comfortable office, clearing out my inbox with machine-like efficiency, thus allowing me plenty of time to SLOG without any fear whatsoever?

I think not.

That's it.

If you're lucky enough to work in an environment more lax with internet policy, be thankful for your situation instead of spiteful towards those of us less fortunate.

(And FYI, the boobies didn't worry me because they're small enough not to draw attention to themselves.)

If people are anal about NSFW material, don't read Slog at work. Period. Labelling items and putting them behind jumps are a courtesy from The Stranger, not a freakin' obligation... and when has anyone ever accused The Stranger of being courteous?

I enjoy reading Slog, so I'd rather not make that choice (and I would assume The Stranger enjoys the ad revenue as well) which leads me to exhaust all other options before I go.

And no one is ever obligated to do anything, Matty... it's just a sign of respect to your readers.

But judging from all the passive aggression on display, I'd wager respect is an antiquated notion anyway.

It's not the Stranger's problem you can't look at their Fun Blog while at work. You'll just have to ween yourself off it. "whaaaaaaaaaaa."

First, the people who whine about the content here are unlikely to click on the banner ads if they're so scared of incurring the wrath of HR. Second, they act as if no site on the internet has ever been successful by showing naked people on it. My guess is that page views go up with every NSFW image. They won't miss the whiners.
