Quick question: You seem to prefer "orgasm" over "cum."
Ex: "I might have orgasmed onto her stomach and cleaned it with my boxer shorts"
Vs.
"I might have cummed onto her stomach and cleaned it with my boxer shorts"
Why is that? Does "cummed" seem too vulgar? Thanks.
good question, justin
I went to college with Melissa Grant. It's weird seeing people I know on the covers of books. Back covers would be less weird.
good piece, tao lin
also, good question, justin
Holy Shit! This was tight. Bro, you're an example of how many different ways a writer can write when they have a handle on their voice. This was very enjoyable. And I can tell there were parts where you were enjoying yourself, too, when it was starting to come together. Ive never read anything of yours in this style before. I know the changes are subtle, but its the shit. Use it more, dude.
@justin i think i generally prefer words that, if spoken, won't confuse someone
'cum' or 'come' sound the same, to me, so it might confuse people if spoken
i also generally avoid 'slang' or idiomatic language and 'cum' to some degree seems a little idiomatic to me
good job
