"Strict Products Liability" Story Event May 2019

[HeyAll]

Hello,

I'm organizing an event called "Strict Products Liability" which has been pre-approved by Laurel.

This is being announced early because the concept is trickier and requires more thought.

Description:

“Strict Products Liability” is a legal theory in which to sue a commercial supplier over a defective product.

Generally speaking, a plaintiff must show that the product was defective in one of the following ways:

A) Manufacturing Defect: The product differs from the intended design, which has made it more dangerous.

ex: the product was screwed up on the assembly line

B) Failure to Warn: The plaintiff was not warned of risks that aren’t obvious to an ordinary user.

ex: manufacturer didn't warn users of potential dangers

C) Design Defect: There is a safer, more practical design which has a similar cost to produce.

ex: manufacturer was cheap, took shortcuts, and the product was riskier to use

For this event, Literotica will explore all the naughty ways a defective product can lead to a naughty outcome.

Guideline:

- The story must center around a defective product.
- The defect must lead to erotica.
- Must be HOT.

*No dull stories!

Date:

POSTPONED!

Just to start off some comments/questions; Would the general concept imply that the story would, of necessity, end up in a courtroom? I can imagine a lot of malfunction problems in the bedroom...not sure I have the legal background to make a believable court case of them though.

Hmmm...Maybe a botched and humiliating presentation by a storefront lawyer would be fun though...sort of like getting screwed by both the product and the courts

Add me in for one. I haven;t made up my mind what it will be yet. Still thinking about that.

No legal drama necessary

No humour ?

Whip out the defective dildos, flabby fuck-dolls, smoking Symbians, placebo birth control pills, and sabotaged condoms. Do pr0n DVDs with malware attached count?

PS - re contests vs events: Contest entries gain visibility. What is the payoff for event entries? How many extra eyeballs will they grab? I can expect that titles starting with ON NIGHT IN... might be perceived by LIT's stupendous readership as being of a theme. But do event stories score more views?

[I'm trying to tell myself these aren't only author's exercises.]

 

[gunhilltrain]

This may be a bit of a stretch, but there is something J.G. Ballard about this. In particular I'm thinking of Crash.

There is an identified paraphilia for people who get sexually excited by automobile accidents. Ballard already covered it, but maybe somebody here could take a shot at it again. Right now I don't have any inspirations about that, at least not by May I'd guess.

Aha, plot bunny: Pervo automobile assembler, in league with car-crash fetishists, deliberately builds dangerous defects into vehicles which they GPS-tag for fetishists to follow. The defects manifest after X-thousands of miles, not immediately. Hilarity ensues.

Almost sounds like a novel. But someone wrote that Ballard's book was an overlong short story. (I'm not sure I agree.)

But yes, sounds like it could work. Ballard himself (if he were still alive) would probably like it.

 

[HeyAll]

Any interest in this one? May have to cancel if not.

 

[JanusGoneAwry]

I'm noodling on an idea so I'll jump into the fray, but I won't have a handle on a category until I put a little flesh on the bones if that's ok.

Noted!

 

[JamesMiehoff]

Hmmm. I had a story that I was working on for the Valentine Event before real life intruded and kept it from being finished. This has possibilities.

It will probably end up in Erotic Couplings or Group depending on how depraved I am feeling when I start the rewrite.

[Hypoxia]

If my d'Addario mandolin strings turn into coral snakes and infest my orifices whilst I'm playing, who do my survivors sue?

 

[YDB95]

I can think of some ways this would work with my trademark fetish. Let me give it some thought.

 

[YDB95]

If you do go through with this, sign me up for a fetish story. Pretty sure I can make it work.

 

[whowrotethisshit]

Ooh, I have an idea. Not sure if it belongs in Sci-Fi or Exhibitionist & Voyeur yet, I'll have to outline.

 

[whowrotethisshit]

This one still happening?

 

[Hypoxia]

This one still happening?

Oh, I hope not.

[whine]
Too many story events. They're all writers' challenges, not contests, nothing to grab innocent eyeballs. Writers' challenges are great if readers aren't needed.

[HeyAll]

Sadly. I dont think so.

 

[SimonDoom]

Sadly. I dont think so.

Don't feel too bad. The event may not go off on schedule but you probably inspired some good story ideas. I've suddenly got one for what I think is the obvious category even though it hasn't been designated yet -- toys and masturbation. No way I can get it done by the previous event date but I'm putting it on my to do list.

 

[ChloeTzang]

Sadly. I dont think so.

I was going to suggest maybe later in the year.

 

[YDB95]

I'm still all for it if it does happen. Either way, I'm going to give my story a try.
But yes, later in the year might be a good idea.
