I’ve made the acquaintance, courtesy of twitter, of another fine company lately as well: Eros and Iris. Speaking as a woman with a fuckable disembodied foot on her desk, I thought I had seen everything.  I was pleasantly proven wrong, having taken a gander at the insanely gorgeous silicone victorian-inspired dildos offered at E&I. It doesn’t hurt that the folks at the helm are kind, attentive, and open to conversation either. I will roll out the marketing-pimpage red carpet for companies like these – small, hardworking, and with really amazing offerings.

Some companies, however, seem to suffer from biden-itis…that is, the inability to know when to stop talking when you’re only doing PR damage to yourself. If the internet had laws, a handful would read: Always assume snarkery from the writer penning the piece on their own blog, That any mention of your product is generally a good thing, and perhaps the most unmutable advice of all: Never ever rise to the bait of post commentors. Unless you have a major award in persuasive speech gathering dust on the mantle, chances are it won’t end well.  Just reading how it all unfolds makes me wince.
