Legend has it, the stork brought me. I've been wondering about the validity of that theory, though.

"HEY! You wanna hurry up with those chilled monkey brains?!"

11. What's the origin of your screen name?

"Scyess" is totally meaningless. It's asexual and absolutely devoid of any references to things I do or things I like, because who gives a shit, really? It doesn't try to be a clever reference to something I like but no one else has ever heard of. It's totally anonymous. Plus, it has a "y" in it and sounds cool when you say it. It's also my password.

12. Give us an idea of how old you are by reference to your favourite music/TV show/whatever when you were a kid.

How sad you want to define my age (or my anything) by TV references.

So, Why "Spankling?" by Spankling 6-08-01

My father and minister conspired to hire a prostitute to chaperone a sleepover in our church one summer night when I was about 13. I can't believe this is happening! So young and tender... I could make him do just about anything! They chose her well. She had an outrageous body and showed up wearing a thin white blouse with a black lace bra underneath. There are, like, 7 other guys on this sleepover. Where did they go? I'll just separate this one from the herd and have a little fun. She wanted us to screw under the cross on the alter, but that weirded me out too much. So I spent the night wrestling and spanking her in the youth room. Damn! My_hands_are_raw from_slapping_her_ass! How am I ever gonna jerk off after this? Come on boy! Put your arm into it!

Why would your father and minister set you up with a whore? by Spankling 6-08-01

People_had_strange_ideas back then. They didn't mean to steer me toward hookers. They thought by awakening a part of me that was draw to the fairer sex... They wanted to make sure he didn't turn out gay. And did it work? Are you kidding? You should have seen this woman! Yeah. I was hot.
