Hidden Away

 
Hidden Away
Screen shot of some site for mums - this feature talks about "where sons hide their ero mags."
1. Underneath the bed
2. TV stand - hidden among the video packaging
3. The bottom drawer of a cabinet
4. Underneath a desk drawer

When I was a wee young lad, I cut out the page 3 pics from the Sun newspaper and stuck them all in a folder. The folder was actually hidden under the bed ^^;
Cant remember how old I was at the time but I eventually stuck a lock on my bedroom door.

Where do you stash your booty? Now that a lot of you have the internets, I presume you encrypt that folder full O goodies?

Nah, since I live alone now, this issue is out of the question.
But I did hide my printed/drawn stuff near my bed,back there.

External HD FTW. 

Easy to hide, folders can be hidden away in there, and if need be, relocated very easily and quickly. 


Very nice indeed lol.

Stash? What stash? Besides my doujinshi and Dengeki Hime being arranged on the shelves, I don't have anything else which would be "questionable". My parents don't even take a look at it so it's safe ^^.
Most of the booty would definitely be on my HDDs, and it's a good thing that they don't really know how to operate a computer properly besides using MS word and IE (anyway my com is password locked when I'm not around so no worries). The stash is also placed in hidden folders, but it does get weird when people check how much space is left in the drive (eg: 1GB out of 100GB) and to find the drive "empty". hehe ^^. Oh no did I just give myself away?

my pirate booty is hidden away on 2 of my 500G external drives daisy linked together. the folders have weird names and are encrypted just to be safe. i also keep some moe pictures on my usb keychain. almost got caught once when a friend had to borrow my usb key to save something on a school computer...lol. as for actual hard copies, i keep them mixed with my stash of magazines and manga/anime related stuff, there's so much stuff that you'd just find regular mags even if you bothered to look in there.

place all your ero stuff inside a box. put a label on it saying "NO PR0N HERE" and leave it in the open

no one would dare to look into it XDDDD

if not you can just type the name of the folder in the address bar, that is if you can remember the long name... ^^;

Meh, I've always kept my stuff hidden in a folder in a folder in a folder etc. etc.  My mom has always been pretty open about sex related things so since around 15 or 16 I don't think she would have minded (I don't think she knew about any of it till I became 18)  Now I'm 18 and leave it in the same folder :p.  As for non e-ero, I keep it in a drawer right next to my desk :o.

I hide most of my dengeki mags practiacally in plain sight. On the top of my dresser...which is often piled with clothes.

All PC files are rar passworded and usually opened and archived on my linux machine. Parents haven't a clue how the hell to deal with linux and i run dvorak keyboards on all my machines. (Leaving QWERTY as the physical layout)

very safe ^^
