Something about the way he says hass-oll isn't right.
Also, the way he explains the hass-oll breathing it looks like he's conducting an anal sympathy symphony. posted by Civil_Disobedient at 9:03 AM on January 21, 2011

The only non-sexual time I've heard of anal massage, outside of medical prostate reasons, was someone having injured their coccyx and needing it put back into place. The instructor who explained that didn't make it sound like a fun process.
Never, though, have I heard that "high levels of well being" requiring "500-1000 anal 'breaths' a day". posted by yeloson at 9:17 AM on January 21, 2011

Also I'd like to thank hermitosis for ruining this song forever with the post title.
I think the song is improved by hermitosis' post title. Though I still don't want to listen to it. posted by oneirodynia at 10:06 AM on January 21, 2011

And to think he could have been practicing on the piano instead. posted by binturong at 3:17 PM on January 21, 2011
And to think he could have been practicing on the piano instead.
Oh, one can theoretically practice piano for several hours a day during high school and still have a rather copious self-love routine.
Theoretically, of course. I wouldn't know anything about actually having that kind of routine. Not me, not during high school. No way. posted by hippybear at 3:25 PM on January 21, 2011

OK, so I actually went back after the first round of lulz and watched all the videos and what really strikes me about this is that Eliot Glazer is a jerk. Yes, it's kind of weird that Dr. Kramer is so insistent on saying "asshole" instead of "anus" (and yes, "My Parents Were Awesome" was a pretty great idea, the questionable merit of a tumblr-to-book be damned) and his affect is unusual, but I'm sick of the easy and pervasive joke that is alternative-sexuality shaming.* It takes big fucking balls to say "I enjoy something that other people think is weird, even though it's totally harmless" and to be an advocate for loving your self (or, whatever, "making love to yourself") even though it's inevitably going to be a magnet for Internet gawkery and homophobia-by-proxy.
I'm pretty damn vanilla; I tried going to an all-male naked yoga class a few years ago before admitting that I just had certain boundaries to confront about personal space and was never going to be perfectly comfortable there. But I don't begrudge anyone else who enjoys it the experience. I'm glad it exists. I'm glad Dr. Kramer is out there and that maybe his video/program/thing will help someone out there get over their mind-rending hangups. I mean, really, Eliot? "Nightmare goggles" for videos of talking heads and footage of naked men from the waist up?
Roy and Suz are brave. Chester seems like an earnest guy. Annie Sprinkle is fucking awesome. The actual lulz here are about as potent as a limp dick.

I disagree on the count that the people who traffic in these sorts of alternative-sexuality ideas know perfectly well how ridiculous they or their ideas seem to everyday people, and most of them have an incredibly good sense of humor about it. You can't shame the shameless.
And c'mon, "ORGABUMPS"? I mean, hurray for people for unlocking their own sexuality, but incredibly personal sexual stories told for any reasons OTHER than arousing people are always going to sound really weird and make most people cringe. The "ZOMG I have to share this with the WORLD" aspect of people's sexual awakenings is always fascinating to me, and I suspect that's at the root of Glazer's interest too, underneath the cracks about "nightmare goggles" etc. posted by hermitosis at 11:59 AM on January 22, 2011

I guess my umbrage stems from the fact that the people they're trying to reach are going to shy away from anything that receives so much mockery, and that (on a completely different level) if you're going to engage in that mockery, funny > lazy.
