No, the title isn’t a movie quote or an attempt to be funny. It really is exactly what it says. I got dared to kiss a boy and I’ll be damned if I’m gonna let something like THAT go. Nice one, Trish. Bitch. And I mean that with love. 
After today, I don’t know if I can make the dares happen for the next three days. They WILL happen, it’s just a question of when.
It’s all contingent on my bud, who is doing much better. Thanks for all your well wishes. I’m filming another dare this morning, and another later tomorrow. Fingers crossed.
Now, pucker up. Last year, I Kissed a Girl, but this year? Not so much.
Birthday Dares 2009 – Dare 2: Kiss a Boy from Karl Erikson on Vimeo.
Yeah so I got up EXTRA early this morning so I could shower before the kids got up. And then? YOU KISSED A FUCKING BOY and I squealed and woke up the kids. Goddammit.
You, um, really got into that kiss. Wow. I think you really enjoyed that. I’m scarred. And so is Aden.
Perfect love song, by the way.

Dude! You totally begged a little boy for a kiss, telling him “You can be on TV!!” Pervs go to jail for that shit!!!!
I am laughing my ass off! That was a great dare and yeah, what Wendy said….you really got into that! And I thought you couldn’t get any hotter! The next time we’re together, I want you to kiss me like that! LOL

I did not need to see that before breakfast. I actually missed 2/3 of the video the first time I watched it. I really thought it was over. Then I went to show a co-worker and noticed that the video kept going. By the way, no means no!

Trish here, the darer. First of all, my Twitter followers SUCK because they never told me about this dare!!
Second, I was SO ready to call Karl a pussy, until I saw the end of the video. Hon, you have my utmost respect. Also? That was WAY more than five seconds – but hey, if it’s good, don’t stop!
Third, it’s OBVIOUS that Karl has never been to a prostitute, the way he’s waving that money around. Discreet, man!
And the bribery with the cake? I had a boyfriend who used to try that with me. Worked awesome. Then again, he used jewelry, not cake, but hey – know your audience.
And lastly – where’s mah swag, dude?

@Trish/Astrogirl426, First, they didn’t tell you because the Birthday Dares are shrouded in SECRECY. That’s for a reason, babe.
2. I thought somehow you’d approve.
3. This is Sebring. Most of the prostitutes wear sandwich boards with prices on them.
4. Bribery was necessary. The show had to go on.
The prizes will be annouced AFTER all this shit is done, sweetie. Don’t worry.

I’m pretty sure I saw tongue involved and you liked that way too much. Your man-whore was hot though (if he’s done with you, tell him to call me). Kid was even cuter.

@Sassy, Totally! There was a moment there when Karl was caressing his boy-toys face, when I thought, ok, this is the moment in the pornos when the hands start going lower..
Not that I’ve ever seen gay porn. Or anything. Ahem.

Good thing I noticed the length before I clicked “play” (go Vimeo! over YT) b/c I would have been fooled too that it was over. Because the last 2/3? Awesome and hot, dude! well, ok, not the part with Aden. That was just cute

I’m still laughing…gotta hand it to ya , ya got balls of steel!!! You rock!
Hope you had a happy birthday!!!
P.S….I think I need a smoke more than ever tho…of the post coital type lol

The whole point of a dare is to actually go through with it. Doing more than the required 5 seconds showed just what kind of man you are… well, not that KIND of man, based on the video.
