Nowadays there are very few good sides to Nerve.com, but one that remains is the barefaced outspokenness of their content. I can’t think of another media outlet that would allow their readers to interview John Waters and run the answers unexpurgated.
While Waters doesn’t seem to be in his best, most overcaffeinated and loopy form here, it’s nonetheless amusing and never less than honest. Want to know what freaks out the freakmaster? Read on…Here’s a sample.
“What is the most filthy, vile, and disgusting thing you’ve personally ever heard of or thought of? Does the wide availability of subversive information on the internet play a role in this?”
Well, I think that’s where I heard about blossoms, which I found especially repellant. Which is where men — well, I guess women, but I’ve only found men — have been fist-fucked so much that their anuses are outside of their ass, like a cauliflower. And they compare who has the biggest blossom. I found that fairly appalling.Jesus Christ.
[laughs] I don’t think that’s been topped. I’ve heard about “ultimate nudity,” which I don’t know is real or not; some men, probably in Los Angeles, where it would seem to be more appropriate, have the skin of their testicles removed and replaced with clear plastic on the theory that it’s more erotic to see how the sperm is made. I’ve never seen that, but I hope that’s true…
This one is from Catie, 40, in New York. “In your opinion, how many more years ’til cable television starts airing live executions, and would you watch?”
They did! What do you think Saddam Hussein’s was? I was at a skiing resort, over Christmas and New Year’s, at a beautiful fancy dinner with people in couture and everything, and they were sitting there with laptops watching Saddam Hussein be executed. There was a real photo-op.
