So your parents were stealing HBO and they didn’t want you to find the Skinemax channel? Sorry, this is a little bit before my time.We had a black box that would descramble channels.
I was told if I used it the cable company would zap the line and make my TV explode.

So what was the point of them having the box? Presumably your parents weren’t watching hardcore porn in the living room.You could get the Playboy channel and Spice network with the box.
They weren't concerned at all if I watched softcore porn, but the hardcore shit isn't supposed to be viewed by a 9 year old.
My dad didn't want to pay for HBO and PPV boxing events. Black box fixed all that, but naturally included porn channels.So what was the point of them having the box? Presumably your parents weren’t watching hardcore porn in the living room.
My dad’s Jamaican coworker had a black box and would invite us over for all of the WWF ppvs.So what was the point of them having the box? Presumably your parents weren’t watching hardcore porn in the living room.
They were awesome.My dad’s Jamaican coworker had a black box and would invite us over for all of the WWF ppvs.
I remember being told that if I went to bed with wet hair I would get lockjaw.I remember my parents telling me that if I fell asleep with my tv on (it was one of those old ones that had that terrible bright blue screen when you weren’t playing a video), that I’d go blind from the light
My parents were very strict, and they even considered buying a black box for the WWF and movies, but the unscrambled porn aspect of it was why they didn’t. So I was stuck watching scrambled porn as a teenager. My residence for my first year of university was at a hotel, and if you hooked up a vcr to your tv, somehow you could watch all the ppv channels. Watching the same 4 pornos on loop for a month lost its charm pretty quick though.They were awesome.
I used to go over friends houses and secretly laugh to myself in my head at the fact they didn't have channels beyond basic cable.
Even non porn shit like NESN (to watch the Bruins and Red Sox) was premium up until 2000 or so.
I remember watching scrambled hockey games over friends houses knowing full well I had the channel at home because of the black box and keeping it to myself because my dad told me not to tell anyone about it even though the city was full of illegal immigrants and other criminals.
My grandparents used to make me leave the room so they could watch porn on opposite sides of the living room. I just remembered this. Also caught them smoking weed once.So what was the point of them having the box? Presumably your parents weren’t watching hardcore porn in the living room.
That’s fucked up dude, and that’s coming from someone that got my grandpa a bunch of lap dances at a bachelor party once.My grandparents used to make me leave the room so they could watch porn on opposite sides of the living room. I just remembered this. Also caught them smoking weed once.
Yeah I guess I buried that one. My grandfather was a retired MA state trooper and my grandmother was a barmaid at a strip club. My father's parents. It explains a lot. My mom told me my grandmother offered her coke the first time she met her.That’s fucked up dude, and that’s coming from someone that got my grandpa a bunch of lap dances at a bachelor party once.
