Am I A Scumbag?


"I feel bad unfollowing you, but at the same time looking at your picture reblogs at work make me feel like a pedophile."

Is that what I am? A pedophile? Do I post pictures that put me on the edge of poor taste? One never gets to know why they are unfollowed but I guess I know the truth now.

Check my tumblr archive and let me know. If you notice no one is naked, no one is under the age of 18. That is deliberate on my part because other things interest me.

Now is you chance to blast me if you have been waiting to tell me YOUR truth.

People who look at your pics and feel like a pedophile, that says more about them than it does you.

Thank you Dr. M. I bow to your medical and life experience advice.

Personally, I don't really care for the posts of girls (I prefer your more creative posts and the cool stuff you find) but I've never thought of them as pedophilia. As I've said before, if any blog I follow does something I'm not interested in, I just don't read those posts. No reason to stop following someone's brilliance because of a couple of posts here and there. And really that's the cool thing about your site; if you don't like something, skip to the next post cause it's probably awesome. There really is something for everyone at the cave of cool, and often on a daily basis.

And when they make a movie version of the site, you put that quote on the poster.

Hmm... who would you get to play you in a movie version?

Kal said...

I of course would have to play myself. Or have someone like Daniel Day Lewis who gets psycho in his preparation for his roles. I suspect he and I will be eating pizza pops and milkshakes for a month while he bulks up. Then plays me with being only able to move one left foot.

I just bugged me that someone would tell me that he had to drop me because I was NSFW.

Well A) What is that guy doing reading your blog at work when he's supposed to be... you know... working?

and B) I sometimes feel like a pedophile just by going on the internet because I have daughters who are older than some of the girls who post naked pictures of themselves that get reblogged all over the place. But you know what? That's MY problem and I deal with it how I must, anmd if that includes unfollowing somebody, fine. But that guy kind of implied that it was your fault when it was really his. Maybe that guy should have a serious look at himself and his attitudes before blaming you for how he feels.

Kal said...

It's funny. I can see girls online and it doesn't bother me. I think I am pretty tasteful with my posts.

When you teach the same kind of girls you feel weird to think of them that way but very quickly you become protective of them and don't see them as sexual objects.

It's the way the culture messes with a man's brain.

Honestly? I'm with Mr Hendrick not a huge fan of the girls. Except the recent curvy girl post - and the utterly lovely psychedelictits (oh thank you so much for introducing me to that wonderful kookie tumbler). But dude your blog is inspiring and it is the way I start my day. I never feel uncomfortable visiting the cave of cool. Even though we differ on the blockogoly issue.

Paladin said...

I concur with everyone else so far. Too, maybe the unfollower was mistaken and believed the girls you post are younger than they actually are? Hwang Mi Hee, for example, who is pictured in this post as a "School Girl" is actually 27 or 28 years old... hardly pedo-fodder.

BTW: Phillip Seymore Hoffman is the only actor who could possibly do Cal justice. He'd probably win an oscar in the process.

And... don't stop with the curvy girls. Curvy is good.

Drake said...

How can you be a pedophile when you just reblog pictures made of these young women (who are all 18 or older) by professional photographers and used to sell magazines etc. Like Dr. Monkey said it says more of that guy de-following and his twisted mind than of you.
And as Samuraifrog and i know naked boobies are the quickest way to lose followers! :)
Keep being Cal,Cal!

Baby Sister said...

I agree with TS. Nothing else to say really...

csmith2884 said...

I love the blog, I love the redheaded women of any age. I respect your no nudity on the cave of cool blog. I have never thought of anything on your blog as pedophilia. So I guess Dr. Monkey is right on.

Pat Tillett said...

eff 'em...
you've never done anything even bordering on that in my opinion. I agree with TS, there is so much good stuff here.
Good riddance to whomever it was!

Laura said...

As a Mother of 4 children, if I thought that your pictures were of a pedophile nature, I'd be outta here.

If they make that person uncomfortable, then hey ... bye bye. :) Don't worry about it. Your cave is still cool.

((Hugs))

They're all over 18? That's all that matters, to me. (Although I tend to skim past the girls for the nifty stuff...and to be honest, I don't visit Tumblr very much at all. Maybe I should, but I can barely keep up with stuff I want to follow already!)
