15 years ago. It was the living room of a quiet house in a small town in India. Seated there, at the edge of their seats, were three young guys in their late teens. The tension in the room was palpable. Their eyes were glued to the TV. As an outside observer, I know the reader has questions. What is so gripping about the old-fashioned girl-on-girl porn they are watching? Are these teens anxious to find out whether the older girl is able to properly teach the younger girl how to satisfy her boyfriend?
Interrupting the enchanting pop sound-track of the movie, spoke guy_1, “Do you think we will be able to finish the movie before your parents return?” Guy_2 chimed in, “Yeah, do you think we should fast forward a bit?”
Guy_3 pointed to the women on TV, who, by that time, were moaning at a pitch attainable only by Vampire bats, and said, “The movie can’t be much longer. It’s only 8:50. Mom and dad wont’ be back before 9. We will have enough time to finish the movie and have a smoke before they arrive.”
Noticing the discomfort on their faces, Guy_3 explained his master plan. “Listen, If I hear them at the main door, I will run and intercept them. I will buy you enough time to retrieve the cassette out of the VCR and hide it in my room. It’s as simple as that.” Reassured they went back to watching the tangle of limbs on the screen and trying to figure out whose hand is doing what to which body part.
The reassurance lasted for about 5 minutes until the TV screen went blank. As darkness descended in the room, their hearts stopped with the realization that the power just went out. “Holy shit!” shouted one of them, “How the hell are we going to get the tape out of the VCR?” Another guy chose a stronger swear word, more appropriate for the occasion, and proceeded to repeat it with different stress each time. “Fuck fuck fuck…” Out of this chaos boomed the nonchalant voice of Guy_3, “Guys, let’s not panic. We are engineers. We can take the VCR apart in 2 minutes and get the cassette out.”
At any other time Guy_1 and Guy_2 would have sat Guy_3 down and discussed: 1. How wrong he was when he said “we are engineers” when there is no hope of their passing second year of engineering. 2. How opening up VCRs is not remotely connected to their engineering curriculum. 3. How they would love to kick Guy_3 in the nuts for not panicking. But they didn’t,because opening the VCR was the best idea at that time.
With impressive speed the VCR was opened. It didn’t take them too long to figure out that VCRs are not like candy boxes which you open and grab whatever you want from them. In fact, the “Star Whores Episode IV: A new hole” video tape was locked in some intricate mechanism which was difficult to study in the candlelight. At which point Guy_1 asked, “Guys, don’t you think it would look more suspicious if we are caught with an open VCR? How would we explain it?” With this new insight into the situation the VCR was assembled back.
After half an hour, the power did not come back but the parents did. The three guys nervously wandered around the living room hoping the power would be restored before the living room was locked from inside for the night. The power was restored soon after but with one glitch. Guy_3’s mom was immediately heard saying, “Oh good the power’s back. Let me turn off the TV so we can go bed.” Guy_3 sprang to action shouting, “Mom can I talk to you privately in the kitchen?”
It is inconsequential what irrelevant matter Guy_3 discussed in the kitchen or the fact that his mom was heard saying, “OK, but why do we have to talk about it now?”. Nevertheless the video tape was transferred to safety before the discussion ended.
Different people react differently to the same situation. Guy_1 didn’t stop trembling for a week. Guy_2 asked later that night, “Those girls were amazing. Do you think we can manage to see it again tomorrow?” Guy_3 blogged about it 15 years later.
What? Girl on Girl? 15 years ago? Wow!
Finally, done reading all the blogs from Blog#1. i really liked your sense of humor and your style of writing. I enjoyed reading all of them.
Thanks
Deepa R:
Thanks 
You OK?
The cool cat, eh! Its a lot easier for us kids nowdays with so much of porn available on the internet
-Ok
Impressive, Impressive…Very impressive
And you liar…Star Whores Episode IV is not “A new hole” - it is actually a new c***..err..a new hope ;)!!
And dude…to be fair, vampire bats emit ultrasonic sounds..can’t be heard by humans (I too studied physics you see
)
> It is inconsequential what irrelevant matter Guy_3 discussed in the kitchen
Tell us anyway
lol.. should have known!!! hahaha!!!! and yeah do tell about the talks in the kitchen!!
Ok:
You kids can do better than that 
Those girls on these porn tapes moan so shrill, we stop hearing them at some point 
Ya, it’s amazing what kind of perverts we turned out to be given the limited resources
Kiran:
it is actually a new c***..err..a new hope
Lol. You know, I forgot the actual name now. At that time I thought it was very creative
vampire bats emit ultrasonic sounds..can’t be heard by humans
My point exactly
Nitin, Preethi:
Tell us anyway
I vaguely remember that, it was something to do with finding out what next day’s breakfast was… hey had 2 seconds to react and couldn’t come with something more believable
I kept on wondering which one you were as I was reading!
Very funny. I mean, taking the VCR apart… Guys!
yay!! you are back!! And funny!
Yesterday, it passed my mind, that it has been a while that you wrote something..
glad you are back !!!
you guys were lucky to escape..
loved the post!
Heh! Those were the days… Hated those damn VCRs with all of their tracking problems that began just during a juicy scene.
Nice post.
Well, we girls were lot more daring than you boys….i was at my cousin’s place and this was the first time we were watching one such video…we waited till midnight and put in on our computer with no sound with my aunt and uncle sleeping next door….2 minutes into the video, we were rolling on the floor with laughter….and you must know this…none of us can laugh silently…our boisterous laughter that night would have woken up half the neighbourhood….5 minutes later, we had to shut down the video coz we all were crying with laughter…now..if somebody asks me why were laughing..i am gonna punch them on their face.
Hehhe.
Suffice it to say, the one giving the talk always cracked up in the middle of the seminar and I could look around angelically 
I have to go with Lavs up above. The only one I watched made me laugh out hysterically. It might have been because it was a porn movie about making a porn movie in the 60s and I watched it like 4 years ago.
The best part about the movie was how they made the sound effects and I used some bits during research talks
Zhu:
From next time we directly skipped to taking apart the VCR part 
Haha. Damn, I wanted to make it look like some story until the end
I mean, taking the VCR apart… Guys!
Ya, taking the VCR gave us more pleasure than watching the video itself
La Vida Loca:
yay!! you are back!! And funny!
Nah, you are just saying it because I am from same city as you are
Srikanth:
Ya, I have been so busy at work that I couldn’t get to writing!
Yesterday, it passed my mind
I am glad you thought of me
Kunal:
you guys were lucky to escape
Ya, it still sends a shiver up my spine thinking what could have happend. Man, I was young and stupind then. Now I am not young any more
Traveller:
of their tracking problems
You brought back a flood of memories! I vividly remember that stupid “tacking” thing! And how we used to watch movies changing tracking every 2 seconds!
Lavs, Sakshi:
I should post about it some time 
Lavs and Sakshi! You guys should really post your stories! They sound more fun than mine. May be we should turn this into a tag
I see what you are saying about the videos being funny. I saw some which are better than any comedy movie
~nm:
Thanks nm
OK, Guy 3, u were still as smart as that 15 years ago ? Open the VCR by cndlelight is the best thing i have heard in along time!
Story of three teens a.k.a Courage Under Fire! Neat one! you sure you weren’t the sweaty, shaking, wimp? no?
ps: you know what your kids are going to say when caught red handed in similar situ right?
ohh my!! it s so funny!!
i am really glad you are back!! i once did something like this but it was so idiotic!!
it was not porn but you know when parents catch you after a lie, it is terrible!!
but i would have NEVER opened up a VCR ofr heaven’s sakes!!
Rotfl.
I love your sense of humor. I guess, almost everyone has a porn-related horror story. You made your seem funny!! Bet it wouldn’t have seemed remotely funny even a month after the ‘almost’ day.
Have to agree with desigirl. Will need Guy_1 and Guy_2’s words that you were indeed Guy_3.
Esha:
I shake quietly 
still as smart as that 15 years ago
Yes. That is the sad part
desigirl:
Courage Under Fire
Courage under candlelight, you mean
you sure you weren’t the sweaty, shaking, wimp
Who said I was not sweaty and shaking?
you know what your kids are going to say when caught red handed in similar situ
Yes. He is going to say, “What the hell is a VCR?”
vEEns:
you know when parents catch you after a lie
Please, please tell us
but i would have NEVER opened up a VCR ofr heaven’s sakes
Whether we know what we are doing or not, opening things up is the first instinct most of the times
Priyanka:
I guess, almost everyone has a porn-related horror story
They do!? How come I am the only one posting!
it wouldn’t have seemed remotely funny
LOL, it was not
Will need Guy_1 and Guy_2’s words that you were indeed Guy_3
If they knew I am posting this, they would do what they failed to do in the story, viz. kicking me in places I won’t even be able to mention
Whoa.. how on earth did u manage to pull a VCR apart ??? i can imagine my sis and others asking “what the hell is a vcr”…. hilarious.. and must have been a nail biting finish… was infact which one of the 3 u were…
What? Girl on Girl? 15 years ago? Wow
Aaarti:
Even now.
how on earth did u manage to pull a VCR apart
Taking things apart is quite easy. Putting them back together is a bit of an issue
anantha:
Didn’t catch on with the modern trends until quite late
What? Girl on Girl? 15 years ago? Wow
I know… we were very backward
..ah those were the days.. of vcrs and actually hiding stuff like this from one’s folks. Today’s kids will probably invite their parents to come and watch it with them. I have occasionally heard my kiddo cousins talk to their folks and their conversation can be most edifying.
oo… you were supr cool back then as well…
Thats too good a naration! I am bowled over.
Eggzactly same thing happened with us, but we immediately disconnected the VCR, and rushed to couple of blocks away to another friend’s place.
A question just passed my mind after reading this post …Isn’t pornography a medium for sex-education.
It teaches us so many new things .. …then why …why is it so big a taboo ??
A Cynic in Wonderland Edit Link:
I also hope by the time my kid’s old enough to watch, I am not too old to watch it with him 
Always nice to hear.
Today’s kids will probably invite their parents to come and watch it with them
I hope
Rohini:
… you were supr cool back then as well
Yes, I had the same pretenses of being cool back then too
Diya:
Thanks so much
Stone:
Really? But how could you leave the tape in the VCR? Nobody will probably turn the VCR on but if they do, there is too much at stake
Wanderlust:
then why …why is it so big a taboo
It’s not only a taboo but also illegal in India. So much for freedom of speech. Although I wish there were a healthier and more creative outlet for teens’ sexual energy.
In my opinion, porn is an educational tool as far as the anatomy is concerned. If we try to learn any thing more from it, we will have a rude awakening sooner or later
But I agree with you at the end, I don’t know why this is a taboo. Well, sex itself is a taboo in India, Kids are not supposed to be knowing anything about sex until everything becomes clear in a flash in that first night room after marriage
@Twisted DNA :: We moved to a friend’s place off course with VCR wrapped in a poly bag
similar problem, different era. CD stuck in the tray….
The internet has made things a lot easier now though!
Stone:
LOL! You were desperate to finish it were you?
maxdavinci:
D stuck in the tray
Haha! Somebody was saying kids these days don’t have such problems, but I guess things can get messed up in any era
To quote kOTA from “Money(http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KbE-ILtkT60)” - “about 10 years back, same kind of shtory, names different”.. only difference - it wasn’t girl-on-girl action
Feel your pain totally!!!
Sigh. This brought back some memories allright. Now the wonly problem being my folks read my blog… though 15 years later would it even matter…. I still shudder at this prospect of what could happen LOL!
LOL
BTW one important question: Did the VCR still work AFTER you put it together? If it did, then you guys were truly great engineers in the making!
Adding to my prev comment: Of course, it did.. That’s how Guy_1 and Guy_2 were able to retrieve the cassette..
But what I meant was: did it work PROPERLY, without any side effects? (like some scenes from the movie popping on the screen the next time your parents were watching some vittalacharya movie or something..
he he)
deitaDi:
LOL! Man, that scene from Money was such a hit. I used to be able to recite the whole scene
it wasn’t girl-on-girl action
You were watching man-on-woman, you perverts!
Ravi:
Feel your pain totally
I know, we never finished the movie! We ended up not knowing whether older girl taught the younger girl all the tricks
Supremus:
LOL, it’s interesting how many people had similar experiene!
King Vishy:
did it work PROPERLY
LOL. I know what you are saying. Fortunately, it was one of those rare occasions when things actually worked. In most cases, after I put everything back together, one small piece remains and I would have no idea where it goes
watching some vittalacharya movie
Haha! That would be bad. By the way, did you see the movie called “Jaganmohini”? I would argue that this movie is worse than what we were watching
He he he,
This incident reminds me of when I was caught watching Midnight Masala by my dad, all of around 7 yrs ago (ah, those good old days when good old B Grade movie songs used to play on cable TV).
All my dad could tell me was to go to sleep and not watch TV at that unearthly hour. Can only imagine how embarassing it would’ve been for my dad catching me in the act of ogling at …..(man, I still remember the damn song and the woman in that video).
Cheers…………Jam
he he!
I must tell you about my experience with watching porn the first time. 30 girls, a girls hostel and juniors trying to sneak up to watch too!
Guy_3, I take my hat off to you…. growing up was pretty good right. Now the responsibilities keep piling up.
Jam:
ROFL Jam! Midnight Masala! Brought back so many memories. (Now I am stuck with that tune all day)! Come to think of it, what could any parent say when caught with M.masala? After all, they are movie songs!
(Do you remember this song? It used to air so many times in that show. Jayamalini singing “My dear young lover. nEnoka sunflower” or in Tamil “My dear young lover. Naan oru sunflower”)
chandni:
Ohmigod! So all our fantasies of girls watching porn in hostel rooms is true?! drool, drool.
Karen:
This specific incident was not so fun but there are other times when we… let’s leave it at that 
growing up was pretty good right
Growing up was awesome
Happy Holidays DNA!!!!
Fantastic, fantastic last line.
Looking for expert opinion: Is “Girls of Kamasutra” any good?
Guy 3 is cool… Guy 2 sounds despo.. and Guy 1 sounds nbdu..
Woah!It took me five days to ignoring my folks’s rants to get off the computer but I read your entire blog.It took my breath away…it’s amazing!
ha…ha…guys will remain guys! Happy holidays!
Been there, done that. Taking the VCR apart in candle light, i mean. Funny how dirty (and desperate) minds think alike and how it seems to be the best idea at that time.
Just in case you wanted to know, I didn’t get caught either. The power was back on as soon as my parents arrived, giving me just enough time to hide the tape by the time they walked in. The sweat on the brow was conveniently was blamed on the powercut.
Hilarious! Bachpan(?) ke ve din
Good to see you back after a long break 
Merry Christmas !
nuvu chaala crazy babu [:)]
hehehehe..but what did you tell your mom??
Hi, Some how I landed here. This incident is really hilarious. Everybody has such stuff in their life. I was caught redhandedly by one of my father’s freinds at a theatre (He too came for the same movie). He was also shocked to find me there. Ofcourse the matter was settled.
Wish you and your family a very Happy and Prosperous New Year.
so, did all 3 of finally pass engineering? and learn how to take apart a vcr for future use?
How do you it every single time???? Getting the ‘funny’ right I mean!! LOL!! Hilarious!
this was hilarious…the only courage i had back then was delving into books secretly…
but that reminds me never to leave my boys alone with the DVD player…or the computer…they may not know how to fix it back
ah oh…..so what was the talk you had in the kitchen????
Great humour. I actually went thru a few of your older blogs and must say, you’ve given us great reads and silly smirks on our faces..
But I always thought there was some magic in opening up the vcd player when the power went kaput!!! We used to try that when the vcd’s had to be returned to the library and the power went on a standstill…but maybe you just needed to have that talk with your mom lol!!
Yeah, I can totally see you doing that….now-techie-uncle-with-wife-and-child!
Where you been? Wanted to ask you something…
Knock knock anybody home?
hahaha.. i walked in on my teen brother watching something with his 2 friends on the VCR… i was 12, i think. he said “get inside and shut up or get out and keep shut.” it was one of those Brit sex comedies i think, hence not too traumatic!!
haha thats real funny mate . i like your sense of humour and style of presenting that humour
thats real funny mate
rolling-on-floor-clutching-stomach-laughing!
hahahahahahhahahahahaha!
It took you 15 years to blog about it? Sheesh, man, you’re scaring me! That means some day I might actually make some of my own close calls public?! :O Meaning I’ll actually remember them? Being one half of the most scandalous couple in college has its moments, but sadly un-bloggable at the moment :P.
:D 
Came to your list off the feed recommendations, and boy oh boy! You’re staying here bigtime!
PS: With the Internet we also have the wonderful keyboard shortcuts - I swear eternal allegiance to Alt+F4 and Win+D
.
hmmm
the output is fairly un-prolific these days
atta boy, what got u bugged?
or something innovatively amusing like that.
funny, very funny.
That was a fabulous choice of words…. a perfect way of expression of humour,anxiety,curiosity. and it cudnt be this perfect, had it not been a first hand experience….lol.U actually painted a whole picture in front of me….and by end of it i was laughing loud, till my mom entered and asked me if i was ok….i wish i cud just tell her…hey mom i was reading about some really naughty boys from ur century. am sure she wouldn’t mind. lol.
hahah!
man..that wld have been scary and crazy!!
heheh…but cant stop wondering what wld have happened if the 3 guys wld have been caught…
sadistic pleasures of life..:-)
aahhh……those were the days….. It was quite a sight during the heydays of VCR, looking at uncles hiding porn cassettes while bring them home. They somehow looked more nervous than the kids
Thanks for sharing
haha it was you who got caught~~~haha~~~what were u thinkin bu opening the VCR~~~hahah sooooo funny
Can you please add email subscription to your blog ??
Feedburner gives you
BTW just reading one post made me subscribe it…. !!
15 years only?
I had one accidental viewing in some bhagyaraj movie, and that really scarred and scared me. (I even stopped renting videos from that store.)
But then, I got over it
Talking about jaganmohini, any idea where I can watch it again. I only remember the pillsbury mannequin with long black hair and feet in the fire.
I’d prefer reading in my native language, because my knowledge of your languange is no so well. But it was interesting! Look for some my links:
lol…reminds me of the days, when the power went off just when i was watching ftv alone..:D
Hey! I quite liked it! its real fun thinking back those days! yup we would ( atleast for that matter I had watched a lot that i’m quite fed up) but still am a boy! well hope you got that. it never really bores though(i said bores, nothing else>>) and i remember my first time when i watched with my friends, well nothing much happened, I threw up after sometime! well I,being a grown-up kid could only do this, the first time.
This remind me of one such situ we’ve been in,
it was when we were in 9th standard, Technology hasn’t penetrated that deep into our place then, in 1998 or so, we too were watchin a tape and the same villian here, powercut!
I rember calling up the local power sub-station and asking him, if he could switch on power for 20 secs!!! so tht we could take out the tape!
Gettin back those memories and laughing at my self,how dumb we’ve been then!
But u were lucky, u guys escaped!!,
As some-one said -Internet has made things easy now!, it’s not a big deal now to watch one such movie..,
Infact even if u were caught browsing some Porn sites we can some how manage to explain tht it was some Pop up!!
Internet made it much easier now!!!
dude..u are de best!!
i too was in a similar situation,but…
was caught :p
dude..u are the best!!
hi, your incidence reminded me of my past…and hey…the scenarios absolutely perfect…but with the following point of difference:
1. The video name was Body Chemistry..lol
2. not the electricity but the bloody old VCR stopped working in the middle and played spoilsport
3. all 3 of us were commerce grads
and yes we too came out clean and no one at our home knew bout this…and how we got the cassette out of the VCR was a mission…:)
loved the last part.. ha ha..
ya’re ryte- different peopel react differently..
my mom retrieved a movie cd called ’sex and breakfast’ and a few bottles of golconda wine from under my bed day before yesterday-
she jus asked me abt the cd, i jus said, friendz got ‘em over wen she had been out to see my dad in oman the week bfore.. i think she disposed the bottles, as she thought my dad had left them at home, during his last holiday…
i was like, ‘tatz it????’ phew, this is easy- i can get away wyd illegal stuff.
muhahahahahhaha
and then suddenly, yestrday, my dad, who’z a biology teacher in oman calls me n tells me ‘ baby doll, as the body gows, and reaches a certain age, it has certain subconscious needs, which need to satisfied.. please look at marriage!’
and it was then i received the full import of ma careless ways!!! :(:(
gud one man.. love the humor in ya posts!
Around 17 yrs ago, 5 girls huddled together to watch a VHS tape of dubious variety while the parents were out. The current went off and the girls were at their wits end. 3 girls deserted the sinking ship while the host and the lone guest(me) were left. The current came back after 1&1/2 hrs by which time the parents were back.
I was given the responsibility of diverting the parents attention and for the 1st time in my life I expressed an interest in cooking & involved the lady of the house in a detailed conversation about the ingredients she used to fry fish, while her daughter removed the blasted tape & hid it.
p.s - every minute of those 90 minutes felt like eons and even now the heart thuds a slow dramatic beat in remembrence.
Hi, am Nancy. Bloghopped my way in.
LOL
Reminded me of my mid teens when i used to watch porn w my friends.,
nice memories.
too much of it on the internet nowadays and too damn easy
guess teenagers nowadays need’nt go thru trouble like we did
HAHAHA!
this is my first line in all the comments!
taking apart a VCR well i did wen i was in my 7 or 8th std!
tht was more fun as u said
but i dint take it apart for watching porn! it was bcoz the tape got struck!
my first exp at watching porn, well it was dutring our excursion in last yr of school!
the most hillarious thing we ever did!
we brough the portable Cd player thingy and one of the Vcds were given to us by our class guys, and another if i remember correctly Bruce Almighty VCD
we shut all the lights in out hotel room, and put on the Vcd, man! it turned out to be a documentary of porn making in Egypt!!!! it was so damn funny, and every time sum one knocks on the door, we will quickly replace the Vcd with the Bruce Almighty, and i remember for some 1 hr. or so we were watching the same scene in bruce almighty according to our suspicious friends who knocked on our doors all day long!
LOL - same thing happened to me.. my mom was in and I had a bunch of 15 of my collegemates with me scared to death.. and we virtually had to smuggle the VCR out of the house in a huge bag of my colleague.. Whew!
And finally we got the tape out at a nearby friendly[??] service center. We did get so many strange looks, though.. Heh!!
