After reading the video description, I think this is some kind of comment on advertising and Faceless Corporate Greed(tm) or something. Ordinarily, I'd think something like this was pretty lame, but this works somehow. It doesn't take itself anywhere near as seriously as, say, Adbusters. Watching a grown man fuck a pillar made of Cheetos makes the point far better than listening to some college student shrieking about 9/11 conspiracy theories.

Or maybe I'm mistaken, and sometimes a grown man fucking a pillar made of Cheetos is just a grown man fucking a pillar made of Cheetos.

Also, fuck Cheetos. That shit isn't food.

If you think about it, Cheetos are a bit abrasive... Using powdered cheetos as the final step before that coat of wax on a new paint job on your car would probably leave a nice finish..

I was sort of disappointed. What? 8 minutes of dry-humping a pillar of cheetos® brand snacks?

Ok weird, but after a while it's clear he's just cock-teasing those cheetos.

A real artist would have dropped trou and f_ed the hell out of that tower of snack and then photographed his scraped, orange dusted genitals, and hung the prints in a gallery for critical review and sale.

This seems like as good a place as any to say that I actually enjoy the new Cheetos commercials. They're actually fairly clever, especially this one (check out the look on the flight attendant's face as Chester massages her shoulders) and this one, featuring the lovely Felicia Day.

NSFW tag, anyone?
posted by l33tpolicywonk at 7:15 AM on June 13, 2008


"NSFW tag, anyone?"

God yes!

I'm beginning to think that a higher-than-usual number of MeFi posters forget that on Fridays, for some reason. (Either that or they just assume that even on our coffee breaks, no one is ever going to browse the site from an office desk. Fortunately, I got a quick glimpse of the callout box on the right, opened the "For more information" link while the video was still loading and nipped its onscreen appearance right in the bud.)

So here's the message, people: ASSUME SOME OF US WORK FOR PURITANS!!! (In my case, "Government of Canada" in the present regime is actually not too far off.)

Further assume that some of us actually welcome the opportunity to take a quick diversionary break and put something other than (DOUBLE PLUS SECRET) on our screens while co-workers wander off to Tim Horton's. Further assume, too, that we do not actually take our desktop computers with us out the door.

And put a damned NSFW tag on it! Even if it's SFW in your job at the latex pajama factory, it ain't at mine. OK?

In all seriousness, the most disturbing part of this video was the lack of commitment to the cause. The guy's wearing a bag on his head...why? The mimed Cheeto blowjob -- mimed? You couldn't do better than mimed from about a foot away, in a video involving an edible product? Then, right at the blowjob's end, he goes up to give a kiss, hesitatingly goes back to the blowjob, goes back up haltingly...you don't even have the integrity to make an edit or do a recut?

The guy decided to try to do an internet meme. OK. He decided to go surrealistic. OK. He made a giant Cheeto out of Cheetos. Intriguing, OK. He decided his plot would involve him making love to the Cheeto. Now we're getting somewhere. Cheetos are an intriguing alien object, cold, sharp-flavored and dusty; sex is warm, liquid, and sweaty; great, we've got sufficient difference to be really surrealistic and challenge the viewer.

Now he decided to wear a thong, green paper bag on his head, and purple socks. Wait, those aren't artistic decisions -- those are ironic decisions. Those are giving up and making fun of the premise before it's even moving. He goes from Tron Guy (committed) and Sweater Girl (committed) and Bug Sex (committed) to a mess of different conflicting issues. He's killed the interesting 'sex' part of the premise, because we laugh at people who have sex with purple socks and inappropriate black thongs on, much less green paper bags on their heads. If this thing is going to work, the laugh has to come from being unsettled, not from Gong Show Unknown Comedian stylings.

Now he unwraps and starts caressing the giant Cheeto. Good idea, but his acting's wooden. You don't get a sense that he's really into this, which is key to getting the 'sex' part of the premise rolling. His body language is ironic. He's not supposed be ironic, we are. The camera is fixed, distant, like a security camera recording a crime. Which it is.

And then we get to the blowjob. Tediously assembled, with a bad zoom, mimed from a distance. This is where I want to see Matthew Barney come in from the side of the camera, off the top rope, and brain this guy with a chair. Oh shit, there's his manager, Bjork, except, what's this? Her legs have been sawn off at the femur, and in their places are four stilts -- red, black, yellow and green -- attached to each leg, so that as she moves they scuttle, like the eight legs of a spider. She undoes her kimono to reveal a black widow tattoo; the eyes of the spider are precious gems that have been embedded in her flesh. They pulse with hidden light as she begins to hum a low note.

Matthew Barney grabs the mask off the actor. The lighting slowly decays until there are just three hard, cold spotlights stabbing down from the ceiling -- one on Bjork, who has her back to the Cheeto, one on the actor, one on Matthew Barney.

Matthew Barney cradles the actor's ironically-bearded face in one hand, turns it back and forth disinterestedly, judging as one might judge a horse. He smiles and we see a hint of something gelatinous oozing between his teeth. Suddenly he turns and vomits on the Cheeto, a weird Jello-like green substance which begins to sizzle and smoke.

The actor begins crying and the spider-Bjork tilts her head and keens with pleasure. Matthew Barney looks back as you hear a far door slamming -- the cameraman has crapped himself and bailed. Matthew Barney pulls the actor by the chin closer to him, cradles him like a baby, and grips him in a bear hug.

Then, in American Sign Language, he motions to Bjork for the Cheeto.

A real artist would have gone through and done several of the more challenging pieces depicted in the Kama Sutra, had a better soundtrack; I'm think the endless mewling of kittens combined with water running and the sounds of a car going over rumble-strips on the interstate.

And then it would have faded to black with the title card: Fin.

This? This is just some guy dry-fucking a giant Cheeto. This isn't even soft core, it's basic cable snack food porn.

I'm not impressed.

That would have been awesome if it were about 5 seconds long. It would have been one of those "what the fuck was that" images. But at almost 10 minutes? There's only so much you can do to a cheeto - I'd have eaten the entire thing in 10 minutes.

fyi: THIS IS NOT FARK

A rule 34 admission: I recieve intense sexual gratification from newer users telling me that MetaFilter isn't Fark or otherwise telling me how to suck eggs. Thank you, may I have another?

So here's the message, people: ASSUME SOME OF US WORK FOR PURITANS!!! (In my case, "Government of Canada" in the present regime is actually not too far off.) ... And put a damned NSFW tag on it! Even if it's SFW in your job at the latex pajama factory, it ain't at mine. OK?

You should assume that some of us don't actually care where you work, and that some of us think you should take more personal responsibility for what you decide to do while you're at work - especially if you think you work for puritans. There is nothing inherently not safe for work about this. It could very well be a commercial advertisement made for broadcast.

You should further assume that some of us do not wish to self-censor for the comfort of you or your employers, and that some of us believe that this is a slippery slope rife with hypocrisy and dangerous catagorizations that will leave the rest of the world or internet sanitized for your protection - and our miserable boredom.

But really, if you or your work cares about it you shouldn't be viewing youtube at all while on the company network - and MetaFilter itself would be questionable as well. I speak this to you as an IT worker. If I were in your office, and if it was my contractual obligation to make sure that office was a puritan wasteland, I'd have a small script that would notify me who was using what spurious resources, upon which as a hypothetical IT manager I would probably be more annoyed with the time you spent typing your complaint then the link itself. (But since I have some funny ideas about ideals I wouldn't ever accept such an obligation, and I probably wouldn't work in that office. The same way I stand up and walk out on IT or creative technology interviews that want to drug test it's employees.)

In fact it's more work safe than about half of the fucking nunshitting comments I make in which I swear like a pig-fucked pirate with a bad case of Tourette's and an infected fucking hangnail being repeatedly smashed with a goddamned rusty fuckstick of a hammer. Heck, the link is probably more worksafe than your own comment about latex pajamas. Which is to say - this is high absurdism, sir. Your head appears to have been gnawed off at the shoulders by a distant cousin of the Bandersnatch known as the Panopticon.

Further, by reading the text of this comment, you've consented to intense psycholinguistic sex acts of the most depraved sort with the text itself. Watch out for the letters "x" and "t" as they're insatiable, yet pointy. They chafe something fierce. I recommend you wrap them in clingfilm and Cheetos before committing to penetrative acts while singing Roy Orbison songs and prancing about in latex pajamas. Now, to begin you should activate your webcam and start by kissing your keyboard and carressing it passionately. The rest should come naturally.

I love flamin' hot limon Cheetos.

One time, I ate several for breakfast. I was hungover. It seemed... right.

Then I decided for whatever stupid reason to wake up my boyfriend-of-the-moment with a blow job.

At first, he was like... ohhhh.... ohhh.... OH OH OW FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!! WHAT ARE YOU DOING!

It had become the "hateful blowjob."

Being a born problem-solver, I ran to the freezer and filled my mouth with Ben & Jerry's Cherry Garcia.

And thus, the ice-cream blowjob was born.
