Guess Who Loves Him Some Cable Porn?

Posted on | March 18, 2012 | 44 Comments

James Wolcott praises “the porn that can be the only source of solace on those lonely nights away from the aggravations of home.”

Obviously, this is why Vanity Fair pays him the big bucks: To tell us what he does in his spare time. But you probably suspected this, didn’t you?

Apologies to readers disturbed by the mental image of a sweaty Wolcott in his undershorts getting his jollies watching pay-per-view cable.

    Honestly?  I have a hard time believing this guy has a handshake firm enough to cause the requisite beat-off friction. 

    But who knows.  Maybe he uses an appliance.  And anyway, who am I to judge?

    Exactly. The guy has to get his wollies somehow.

    Wolcott has long been one of the ugliest sumbitches alive.

    His physical appearance isn’t any great shakes either, but I’m hesitant to throw stones when I live in such a big fat glass house.

    I’m a little dim on the subject of how guys get off with porn, but, seriously — would he be wearing his undies?

    How would that work? Not well, I’d imagine?

    And, no, I didn’t need that image. I just had one of those – “that doesn’t make sense” moments.

    I can’t believe that James ever requires “solace on those lonely nights away from the aggravations of home.”  A charmer like him?

    Oh, wait… I just put on my specs.  Never mind that first paragraph… 😀

     Maybe it’s just that clip, but…ew? I mean, one’s afraid to scream, it might draw his attention….Let me just creep away quietly!

     Heck, I’m disturbed by the thought of Wolcott fully clothed and writing for VF.

     If James scratches his head, would that constitute jerking off?  Because he kinda looks like a giant penis to me…

     You just know he does that in his underwear… with a bottle of lotion nearby.

     Penises (in my experience) are not usually that pasty, baggy, and jowly. If they are, I simply do not need to know.

     There’s Michael Moore, and there’s “Falstaffian.”  Learn to live and love the difference.

     Rumor has it that Wolcott maintains a year’s supply of “Palm Balm” for a disaster.

    Instead of food.

     He’s not skipping any food.  Heck, he has TWO hands.

    In fact, his most interesting article was on why you don’t eat Cheetos if you are planning on switching hands – I think that was the year Eugene Robinson won the Pulitzer just for writing about something else.

    IMHO I don’t think Wooly is even faintly aroused by pr0n … he probably uses a mirror.

    nah, completely pantsless for easier access — does that look like the face of a man who wants to do anything more than absolutely necessary?

    Every time I see Wolcott, I get the mental image of Droopy Dog.

    That’s a bit hateful and unfair to the Droopster, don’t you think?

  37. Michael Smith

    Yeah, I should be ashamed of myself. I’ll bet Droopy doesn’t even watch cable porn.

    Hotel porn is hideous. Meth addicts giving each other HIV. Dirty feet. Silicone bags.

    When Smitty put the link up on Twitter, I laughed like Muttley. There might be mental images funnier and more disturbing than James Wolcott fapping, but I’m having trouble thinking of any right off.
