So, I moved back to Chicago a week and a half ago, and moved in with a friend of mine, an alright dude, with whom I've lived before. He's a pretty damn good photographer, and supplements his income by moonlighting shooting porn for some website.
Before, it had no impact on my life whatsoever aside from having to make small talk with the odd vapid fresh-faced 18-year-old (a lot of whom, strangely enough, are total trust fund kids). Now, however, I guess by virtue of the new apartment being much bigger and nicer, I've got these guys staying on the couch every damn day, and he shoots scenes in his bedroom.
So here I will vent regarding the less-than-awesome cavalcade of events that take place in this den of debauchery in which I've found myself. Also taking bets on how long it takes me to get fed up and move into a shitty studio apartment.

Anecdote #1: We go out to the burbs to hang with a mutual friend, one of these guys in tow, and as we're heading back, roommate gets a call from one of his other models who lives out there. So we swing around to get him, and they come back to the apartment, do a shit ton of X, and I spend a good 30 minutes trying to get Trust Fund Model No. 2 to stop making attempts to touch my penis before finally kicking them out of my room.

TFM2, on the way back into town, had a long bitch sesh about how he got arrested for having an ounce of weed in his car, "but they can't search your glove box just because you have a suspended license. My mother pays good money for my lawyer. That shit is getting dismissed".

Oh, so, the guy staying on the couch right now I've seen pictures of him having sex. Didn't want to, but it turns out since my old laptop has Photoshop and I wasn't using it, roomie decided to edit the photos on my computer.
I take it outside, hoping to read the news with some tea in the backyard, open it up, and am ambushed.

The word "fisted" is a big part of it for me. You know, the internet has spoiled a lot of innocent things for me. Most anything I see on tv makes me think what fetish site that screen cap will end up on. "There's one for the stiletto heels getting stuck in mud sites." "Oh, that's ending up with the sneezing porn." "Furries, furries, furries...who can really argue for intelligent design when I know what you're pondering while watching this cartoon?"

Ok, got home to find all three of them (being Model Who Has Been Sleeping On Couch Since I Moved In, Model Who Has Been Moving Between Roommate's Bedroom And The Couch For Three Days, and Roommate) sitting in the living room, inexplicably all wearing shorts (?) (!)... (?) and watching Season Two of Extras, which Roommate has seen at least 10 times in my presence alone.
Not knowing how to interpret this, I retreat into my room.
Oh, and no, I'm not gay, though I'm often mistaken as such, and aside from that seem to fit perfectly the template of what Roommate's Internet Porn Masters are looking for (skinny, shaggy hair, look about three years younger than I am, mildly feminine facial features, etc.).

I'm going out now. To fume.
Last week he came home with Couch dude, and gave him a ride to the train station.
I took this as a good sign, that he had made enough porn to keep him paid for a little while and would go back to taking pretty pictures in the desert and working on finding some gallery space.
Then last night I came home and Couch dude was back. This morning, I go to the bathroom to find a Summer's Eve douche next to the sink.

Inevitable point at which it gets a bit too real:
I was making dinner while they were watching Sarah Silverman's Jesus is Magic, which was bringing the laffs, apparently, until it gets to the part where she sings a song the chorus of which is "Do you ever take drugs so that you can have sex without crying?"
Dead silence.

It's too bad your room mate isn't a really popular gay director, like Ken Burns. Maybe then he'd spend all of his time going over microfilms really slowly and booking violinists to come in and play while Garrison Keillor reads letters.
Ken Burns is on the Daily Show right now.
