"Frankly why they’d willingly submit themselves to any of those horrors when they could simulate the entire experience from home simply by wiring a thousand dollars to Steve Wynn, dropping a tab of acid and then heading to Best Buy with a hooker." - That made cold beer come out of my nose. As douchey as TC editors are, I have to give them serious bonus points for their acerbic sense of humor.
That's just linkbait. He - probably correctly - reasoned that people will click that in a heartbeat hoping for something other than what they get on the other side of the click.
If I remember correctly, "NSFW" is the title of Paul Carr's 'column' on TC. So the NSFW in the title doesn't refer to the post, but to the whole series of posts by that author.
Edit: According to his entry in Crunchbase, he also wrote a column for the Guardian called "Not Safe For Work" before being 'kicked out' and going to TC.
Very good point. Will do next time, thanks. I was hoping to loop in the CES tangent a bit because it's at least funny -- it's not only about the Crunchies.
