12 Glossary
69 (sixty-nine):
How DOES one explain this to the uninitiated? Easiest way: each person
performs oral sex on the other. The most comfortable way to achieve
this is for one partner to lay down belly-to-belly on the other. (Kinda
like the 6 and the 9 look... hence the name!)
AFAIK
As Far As I Know
AFOAF
A Friend of a Friend -- Often used when relating urban myths.
alt.binaries.pictures.erotica
alt.binaries.pictures.erotica is a newsgroup which has gigabytes and
gigabytes of copyright violations posted to it every month. You will
often find nude pics of your favorite stars there. Check out their FAQ
for more details!
alt.flame
alt.flame is a newsgroup dedicated to flaming of all shapes and styles.
If you feel a prolonged flame war coming on, it is best to carry on over
there, because most people don't want to watch your arguments.
asm
alt.sex.movies
Autofellatio
A term used to refer to the extraordinary ability to suck one's own
cock. Often, the male involved has to either have incredible
flexibility or have a fairly large penis. Al Eingang, Grant Fagan, and
Scott O'Hara are known for their amazing autofellatio talents. Ron
Jeremy can also "keep himself amused."
AVI
Audio Video Interleave: This is Microsoft's standard for capturing video
to play back to your computer. Like its single-frame counterpart .BMP,
AVI files are huge and take forever to download. Most people prefer
MPEGs, though there is some bickering over standards and a good Windows
viewer.
B-G
Boy-girl; denotes a standard boy-girl sex scene.
BJ
Blowjob.
BMP
BitMaPped graphic. Microsoft popularized (hell, they invented) the .BMP
file with the advent of Windows. It is most famous for hogging
diskspace. It is much more preferable to use JPG compression rather than
using BMPs to transfer graphic information.
BTW
A three letter acronym for "By The Way..."
Cowgirl
A sexual position where the girl is on top of the guy face to face,
sitting up and riding. The opposite is the reverse cowgirl, where the
girl faces away from the guy.
DAP
Double Anal Penetration -- Two cocks in the ass. And you thought
constipation was bad!
DL
I have found out what .DL stands for. DL is taken from the two
individuals which copyrighted the binary format and structure of the
movie loops (most Dls loop forever). The names are: (D)avide Tome' and
(L)uca De Gregori. The DOCs in the latest DL-view version I have claim
a copyright all the way back to 1990. (just more trivia, I know). Not
often seen. People in Italy seem to love it.
DP
Double Penetration - One penis in the vagina, the other in the anus. In
gay porn, DP means two cocks in one ass, as seen in several Falcon and
Robert Prion films from 1991 - 1994 (most notably the "Abduction" series
from Falcon). In hetero films, that is known as a DAP.
DPP
Double Pussy Penetration -- Just as it says; two cocks in one pussy.
Stretch baby stretch!
Evil Empire
The people who make up the Evil Angel/Elegant Angel production team are
sometimes collectively referred to as the "Evil Empire." The empire
consists of John "Buttman" Stagliano, Bruce Seven, Patrick Collins and
John Leslie.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions. Sometimes people call it Frequently Answered
Questions, but more often than not the questions are answered with "READ
THE FAQ!"
Fisting
Finger-fucking gone awry. One finger, two finger, three finger, four!
The Thumb! Holy cow, my whole hand is up there! Most communities feel
that fisting is obscene, so mainstream pornographers tend to stay away
from it.
Tim says: I don't know about hetero porn, but in gay porn 1) It isn't
"finger-fucking gone AWRY" (hey, it was a joke...); 2) it's done in the
ass not the vagina; 3) even mainstream photographers such as Falcon and
Catalina have recently done fisting movies, including Falcon's recent
foray into double- fisting (i.e., one guy has each hand up another man's
ass).
flame
A flame is an incendiary remark meant to provoke or insult. Some people
have brought flaming to an art form. They can be found in the group
alt.flame.
FLC
Flick files. These are Autodesk Animator's file types of choice. They
are just as big as AVI files, but can be viewed in both Windows and DOS,
unlike AVIs.
FLI
see FLC
Fluffer
A fluffer is a person hired to keep the male performers erect during
breaks in filming.
FTP
File Transport Protocol - A method of copying files between machines
connected to the Internet. Most sites provide "Anonymous FTP" which
allows you to log in to a server anonymously (i.e. you don't need an
account) and get or put files there.
FWIW
An acronym for "For What It's Worth..."
Gangbang (or GB)
When many participants (usually male) have their way with one (usually)
female.
G/G (or g-g)
Girl-Girl. A lesbian sexual encounter.
GIF
Graphics Interchange Format - A file format for viewing files on a
computer. The GIF format was developed by CompuServe and has become one
of the graphic standards. It's now under dispute by a bunch of greedy
ignorant weasels over at Unisys.
GL
An ugly disk-hogging ugly DOS based file format for viewing movies which
does its job and not much else. Rarely posted to the a.b.pictures
newsgroups.
Golden Showers
Urinating on someone who wants to be urinated on.
IMHO
In My Humble Opinion
IRC
Internet Relay Chat. A real-time conferencing system. Members of
alt.sex.movies meet on the Undernet (irc.undernet.org) on Wednesday
nights at 8 PM Eastern (-0500 GMT) in channel #a.s.m. to talk about sex
movies and whatever else comes up.
JPG
Joint Pictures Experts Group: This file format is most preferred by
denizens of the 'Net, due to the excellent compression JPG offers. A
.BMP file could easily be 10 times the size of a comparable JPG file...
and when downloading graphics, you want the smallest file with the best
resolution, and JPG really takes the cake. You need a special viewer to
view JPGs and someone over in a.b.p.e.d (or any of the graphics
discussion groups) should be able to help you find one. A favorite is
QPEG, a DOS based JPEG viewer.
LOL
Laugh Out Loud. Used to show that something someone said was funny.
MFF
Male/Female/Female. See a threesome. See N-Way.
Mish
Short for missionary -- a sexual position allegedly taught to the
natives by missionaries... man on top between the woman's parted legs.
The term is most often used in reviews: "Tom and Tori then mish for a
little while..."
MPAA
Motion Picture Association of America, or in the familiar, the ratings
board. This board of seven "parents" rates the films Hollywood makes
based on what they feel is suitable for audience members. They allegedly
base their choices on the merits, although smaller films (like
Almodovar's) are often more strictly judged than the "blockbusters." Of
course, everyone involved denies this.
MPEG
Motion Pictures Expert Group - This is a way of displaying movies on
your screen. It is well liked because of its high compression ratio.
However, the quality of the image may be lessened by the compression
scheme.
MPG
See MPEG
N-way
A term used to refer to the multiple-pairings available in gay porn. If
sex between two people is a duo, and three people is a three-way and
four people is a four-way and five-people is a five-way...then most
people just like to refer to ANY KIND of sex involving more than two
people as an N-way.
PCX
This is another form of graphic display file. It was developed by Zsoft
for its PC Paintbrush program, and has also become a de facto standard.
PITA
Not only a bread, but Pain In The Ass. "Boy, that Jerry... what a
PITA..."
Reverse Cowgirl or RC
A sexual position where the girl on top of guy, facing his feet, sitting
up and riding him. This seems to be a favorite of asm readers as it
allows fairly unfettered and more "natural" camera work.
Reverse Anal Cowgirl or RAC
Same as RC, but with anal instead of vaginal penetration.
Rimming
The act of licking someone's anus. If you could lick your own anus,
there is probably a lot of money to be made...
ROFL
Rolling On Floor Laughing -- The next step above LOL
RTFM
Read the Fucking Manual - The cry of system administrators and other
poor souls who must deal with people asking obvious questions over and
over. "How do you save a document? Read the fucking manual, that's how!"
Spamming
The act of posting the same or similar message separately (so that only
one newsgroup shows in the newsgroup header) to large numbers of
newsgroups. An ad for a baseball card sale which shows up in every
alt.sex.* newsgroup is spam unless it is VELVEETA.
Spooning
Usually performed after sex, when two individuals lie on their sides,
facing the same direction, and perfectly fit together, like two spoons.
TIF
Tagged Image Format - A graphic format used in the real world for
transferring HUGE graphics files between print shops. Also used to a
much lesser extent on the net. You will mostly see TIF files converted
to JPGs for compression reasons.
TLA
Three Letter Acronym
TP
Triple Penetration - One in pussy, one in ass, one in her mouth. Wow!
Troll
A deliberately confused and incorrect post posted to a Usenet group to
generate a flurry of responses from people trying to set the record
straight. Other trollers enter the fray adding more and more
misinformation that the thread eventually dies of strangulation
Twink
A term used to describe certain gay performers. A twink is young,
smooth, pretty. Not necessarily blond, although that's the archetype.
Other attributes thought of as twinky are: Almost invariably NO
musculature, and acts like a little boy, too. Usually a bottom. Most
guys would consider a touch of baby fat to be essentially twinky, but
Tim doesn't.
Velveeta
A message crossposted to many newsgroups, i.e. has many newsgroups
listed in the newsgroup header. It is generally accepted that any
message posted to more than 10 newsgroups is velveeta. Some purists
maintain that no message can be relevant to more than five newsgroups.
WWW
World Wide Web - A hypertext linking system that connects machines on
the 'Net by subject matter. Web servers are set up by (some say
deranged) people who are interested in a certain topic. They mine the
'Net for related information, and place pointers to that information
from their server.
