Quite frankly sir, this is bullshit. Some of us actually have a grasp on reality and knew full well what was going on.
It took no hindsight to know that tubes would be huge and around for a long time. - (Many here still think some magic law will save them.
)
It took no hindsight to know that the economy would have some affect on porn sales. - (Many here claimed that this was a recession proof industry, no. matter. what. Now they are arguing that the Euro crisis has no effect on anything either.)
It took no hindsight to know that suing porn surfers for using LimeWire would not save a dying business model. - (Where are the guys that decided to go this route? Exactly.)
It takes no hindsight to figure out that .xxx is going to be around at least for the next year or three and that there's nothing we can do about it. - (The claims on this one are especially fun. Buying a $100 domain means you're stupid, I will never do business with a .xxx site, surfers will never find them because they use googe, and on and fucking on.)
L O FUCKING L. I mean that.
I have been in business for my entire adult life and half of my childhood. I know how fast the landscape can change and I know when something is inevitable. Many people here do but there are many that have their heads so far up their ass that they couldn't figure it out if this was 2021 and they were reading a history book.
I would be actual money that Shemp will list .xxx galleries if they pay him. Why? Because he's a genuinely smart guy and will figure it out. I think he's already decided and posted this to make some of you think. My opinion of course.
