Is your Corporate Logo in a Dungeon?

It might seem like an odd question after all I don’t know of any large public companies or for that matter even most businesses on main street  seeking out that type of exposure.   After all most of America doesn’t like to admit that it likes sex let alone kinky play.  I think prime time TV tells a different story but that’s a topic for another day.  Still I think companies would think twice about handing out items with their logos on them to every Dom, Hick, and Hairy if they knew where they really ended up.  Here’s just one example.

So I decided to buy some more rope for my collection.  Yes I know I was told that I didn’t need  8mm hemp but figured why listen to a rope bottom if I think I need more hemp then well god damn it I need more rope and that’s that.  Ok not really but there are a few ties I wanted to try with 8mm and so guess what my Chesty Blonde stunt bunny wasn’t in on the plan well until the rope showed up.  You might expect it went something like this “Hi Baby I’m home.  Find some heels and get naked. Daddy’s feeling dirty”  But see that would be too simple in my world the Blonde was out of town so it went more “oh what did I do tonight, not much talked to the Wild One and Victoria for a bit, had Mexican and a few drinks for dinner and oh I got some new rope so I spent the entire evening rearranging my rope bags, catching up on ropecast and planning for when you get home tomorrow. ”   She worries when I have time to plan, little does she know I’m always scheming on what I want to try next.

This time I decided to push my own limits and used a new supplier.  In short I went local for my rope to Aja Rope which turned out to be a hell of a find as far as convenience, a nice selection, and on top of it Aja and Lily turned out to be really cool people.  So after ordering 120ft of Chocolate Brown Hemp (a 60’ and two 30’s in case you were wondering) it was time to pick it up. They do ship all over including Canada so if you’re not local they’re still worth a look.  They were good sports and rounded up some MFP that I added to the order after arriving and wanted to give as a belated birthday gift to a friend.  Well let’s just say I can’t wait to see what that lime green rope looks like by her bright red birthday spanked ass.

Now if you know me I’m always somewhere, at one event or set of meetings or another, industry shows, outings, etc.  As I’ve mentioned it’s a good life for a corporate whoremonger and many of the perks along the way aren’t bad either.  Last week’s freebies was two lunchbox sized coolers from the Ritz and a Nike pullover with a corporate logo.  The truth is I’m a snob and only actually take home things I think are cool.  Trade show trash and trinkets I don’t even bother picking up, it’s the premium items that get kept.  A few years ago while at a racing school event that was sponsored by 5 different companies I ended up with a really great gym bag.  I have a thing for bags and it was a good one so I kept it despite the fact is it had a competitor of mine’s logo across the top in bright orange and red letters.  It felt wrong to use on a daily basis so it got tucked inside other bags that were tucked inside of a suitcase sort of like nesting dolls.

Well there I am with my new rope from my new acquaintances I had a free evening in an empty house and an entire night stand drawer filled with rope and if you’ve been in my bed room my night stand is larger than most.  And before anyone gets the bright idea to ask; no that is not a metaphor for my dick.

So I decided to rearrange my rope into a series of bags with the rope inside now segmented into their own plastic bags, 6mm hemp would no longer mingle wantonly with the 9/32 mfp.  And of course being more GQ than most I put what I thought would be interesting color combinations together.  The New Chocolate went in the Natural 6mm. The Grape still a standout that was kept by its self. But the fact that the night stand was over flowing I decided to organize it into a bag.  Enter the corporate logo.  I looked at it and it is a well made good sized bag.  It had great outer pockets with zippers and mesh compartments. Perfect for EMT shears, short lengths for quick cuffs at the ends were other deep zippered pockets that held hair brushes, wooden spoons and small paddles with ease and best of all there was a wet compartment  intended for shoes that would be perfect for used rope.

It was packed full, all but bursting at the seams, hemp is heavy there is no two ways about it.  Still that damn logo was staring me in the face.  I thought about just leaving it there.  Maybe I could just put some tape over it and write my name on it with a sharpie.  Then I paused for a moment and looked at a bag that was meant to be used for golf outing and other puritan white bread events.  I considered what would their CEO say if he knew his corporate logo was being drug to BDSM play parties and dungeons throughout my world.  That it would ride on airplanes with a loving note tucked inside explain to the TSA as to its contents all with his logo in plain sight.   I laughed they are a public company with a very conservative southern culture, Church, gold, hunting, and Family dinners.  The thought of just leaving the logo in plain sight while containing the tools of my wicked trade was almost too much fun.  The Duct tape and sharpie won out but only after putting a bullwhip inside the bag for good measure.  No I don’t use it, it’s literally a bull whip not a single tail still it’s the first whip a lover ever bought for me and well I like to carry it around in case someone ever want to do an Indianan Jones scene.   Or maybe to fend off my competitors should they ever catch wind of what’s in the bag.

Finally this disclaimer.   I write about something it’s because I bought it and like it, found it funny, thought it might be useful or a good way to waste time.  Then there is always the option that I just wanted to share in my typical TMI way.  Now if you’ll excuse me I’m trying to decide if I prefer satin or gloss poly on the paddles I’m making.  I’m leaning toward gloss since it will sparkle more in the candle light.
