I spent the Summer of 2003 wondering where life would next lead me. And for quite some time, I had been a porn fan. A male who liked watching people fuck? Shocking, right? At the time, I was following porn gossip sites, and one was run by Chico \u201cWanker\u201d Wang. Chico made his online presence known a few years prior when he served as the webmaster for Extreme Associates. <em>Extreme <\/em>had a reputation for being a hard-hitting porn company that was the complete opposite of places like Vivid Video and Wicked Picture<em>s. <\/em>Volt (Chico\u2019s real name) had become somewhat of an online maven. He eventually found his way, and his writing had a certain style. Eventually, he found his way into Diabolic\u2014and at times, Anabolic Video\u2014by being their webmaster and a director. After some time following his work, I saw that Wanker had put an online ad for a \u201cminion,\u201d someone to learn the business directly from him while doing lots of grunt work on set. He replied to my email, and a date was set to meet the man himself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not long after, in October of 2003, I showed up at the building Anabolic and Diabolic Video shared in Chatsworth. I was met by Chico and super editor Curt, aka \u201cCal444\u201d. Curt drove us over to a Thai restaurant to shoot the breeze. Chico sat shotgun, and I was directly behind him. While Curt was driving around, a bottle of urine was rolling around the floor of the seat next to me. It wasn\u2019t beer. I know that for sure. Already a bit weirded out, we broke bread, and Chico asked about my internet experience\u2014but I had none.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zero.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zilch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite my total lack of experience\u2014 I hadn\u2019t even opened up Adobe Premiere Pro or Photoshop\u2014 I was willing to learn everything needed to be around porn chicks while refilling my depleted bank account. After our meeting, I was sent home with VHS copies of some of the most recent Diabolic movies to brush up on what I\u2019d be encountering IF I were to get the job. Now it was a waiting game.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was late 2003, and I had been unemployed for six months.
