January
We made our way to AVN... we laughed, we cried, we watched the Abby Winters girls make out.
Shay Laren bowled... in the nude!
British schoolchildren were somehow corrupted by seeing their teacher in a sexy ad.
Basshunter featured a former pornstar in his video... and was inspired to make some porn of his own.

February
Oh god, no—shield your eyes, it's the Gene Simmons sex tape.
Lindsay Lohan got nude. But it was art, so it was okay.
Sammy Braddy also got nude. It wasn't art, but that was more than okay.

March
Eliot Spitzer was outed as a john. Then we found out his call girl was a former girl gone wild. Then there was that sex tape that wasn't actually her. Ah, memories.
And speaking of sex tapes—remember those alleged Kristin Davis photos? And all those other dubious celebrity sex tapes?
In any case—you can't go wrong with "Cheerleaders."

April
OMG Dita Von Teese was a pornstar!
Stoya was totally "Video Nasty."
Did Marilyn Monroe have a sex tape? (Probably not.)
And Tristan helped us find the gspot.

May
Indiana Carolina Jones got down and dirty.
Daphne Rosen impressed us with her boobs. And the rest of her, too!
Would you like to have sex? Do you need to know how to do everything? Boy, do we have the book for you.
Sasha Grey: more than just a pretty face.

June
Genesis announced the 100 Hottest Pornstars. Most of you disagreed with them.
Pornstars will do many things.... but you probably shouldn't ask them to act.
Everyone loves a freckled girl (and our first ever Fleshbot Request!)

July
You know what Jesse Jane is? If you guessed sexy hot, you are so right.
Aussie pop star Jess Origliasso took her top off...
... and then Australia found out.

August
The Olympics happened. We ogled the athletes.
You know who else is sexy hot? Gabriella Fox.
And we sure do love it when celebrities take off their tops.

September
The Extreme Pornstar Showdown began, with Belladonna and Sasha Grey leading the charge.
Many celebrity nipples "slipped" out into the open.
And what better way to celebrate the Jewish New Year than with Jewish pornstars?

October
"Who's Nailin Paylin?" threatened to change life as we know it.
We said goodbye to John D.—and then to Dashiell, too. We're tearing up just thinking about it.
On the other hand... girls in their panties!

November
We elected a new leader—and an old one, too! All hail Stoya and Joanna Angel!
Can you believe Corrie Loftin posed naked? Cause, uh, we totally can.
Man, those celebrities sure like having sex. On tape, even.
Nothing says equality like a giant black cock in the face.

December
Stoya: our sexy hot extreme pornstar champion. (See why she's our Crush Object of the Year?)
We wrapped up a whole lot of things.
But there's no better way to close it all out than with a bunch of topless women skydiving.

"I'm lucky because I get to be me pretty much all the time," said Stoya from her home in Philadelphia, awaiting next week's trip to Las Vegas for the AVN Adult Entertainment Expo. "I came into the job being the person on the edge of the envelope, and I'm not doing anything too much different from who I am anyway."

Within that envelope are Jesse Jane and Riley Steele, each abundant and delightful in her own way but also more the Heartland's idea of pornic perfection.

Digital Playground took a bet when hiring Stoya to a three-to-five-year contract. She doesn't look like Jesse Jane or even like Sophia Santi, formerly the most exotic performer in DP's roster. Instead, she appeals to people like you.

We didn't even ask what she thought her appeal was because we have so many ideas of our own; we didn't want to embarrass the 22-year-old right out of her hoodie dress (well, we didn't want to achieve that by embarrassing her).

But she did offer some clues to the Ineffable. "You'll notice that it boils down to Science," she said. "Symmetrical features, and either you've got the baby-feeding boobs or the child-bearing hips; a cushiony ass."

Oh, Stoya. It couldn't be just that. She cuts the busk of her corsets with her own shears? She is most looking forward to reading "Ender in Exile" on her trip to Vegas? She counsels overzealous fans that she smells when she doesn't wash, too? She admits that her transition from cult porn fame to mainstream porn fame has been "ridiculously weird"?

We kind of know why we have a crush on you, Stoya, even if you don't, and maybe it's best that we keep it ambiguous. We shan't mention it again. But that warm feeling you get like when the Formics are defeated in the Bugger Wars? Well that feeling is us, Stoya. In your cushiony ass.

After a year of furiously fapping, what toys have left the strongest impression? What toys do I never leave home without—and which are gaining dust in the back of my dresser drawer? Read on and find out:

10) The We-Vibe: Combining vibration with the sexin' always seems like a great idea—but for some reason, it never seems to work out quite right. Given the mechanics of sex, cock rings can't offer a continuous source of vibration—and for some reason, no one's thought of a better solution. Well, until the We-Vibe, that is. Though it may take some exploration to find out how it works best for you, it's a wonderful way to add a little extra bump to your bump and grind.

9) The Bo: But if you'd rather stick with a cock ring, we can offer no better choice than the Bo. Unlike its cheap, gummy rubber counterparts, Bo is made of sterilizable silicone, and comes with a rechargeable battery. Clearly, a cock ring for the future.

8) The Babeland Nubby G: The Nubby G was my first love, Babeland's phthalate free version provides the same wonderful thrills without the fear of toxic chemicals. Even better, it's cheap! **BEST BUY**

7) The Curve: Until I met the Curve, I thought I hated dildos. With it's beautiful, g-spotterific curves, this toy will have you singing its praises within minutes.

6) The Mia: Going on a trip, and worried someone will see you charging your vibe? The Mia can easily pass for a USB thumb drive... until you slip it between your legs. **BEST DISCREET TOY**

5) The Delight: With its delicious curves and many, many vibe patterns, this vibe most certainly is a delight—I just wish it had a simpler navigation system.

4) The Jollie: With it's massive girth and unwieldy appearance, the Jollie may not be for everyone. But if you manage to work it inside your parts, you may find yourself transported to a place you never even knew existed.

3) The Eleven: Sure, we don't all have $300 to spend on a dildo: but if you do, why not purchase a beautifully carved, 11 inch steel dildo? Think of it as an investment. **BEST LUXURY TOY**

2) The Gigi: Sleek, rechargeable, g-spot friendly, and with an adorable mod design, the Gigi's fun to look at, fun to use, and offers some of the best controls ever seen on a dildo.

1) The SaSi: With all the hype and advanced press, I expected to end up heavily disappointed by the SaSi—what vibe could possibly that good? Yet with its innovative design, the SaSi managed to impress even this jaded reviewer, landing it the top slot in this year's sex toy list.


Worst Toy Of 2008: G-Pilot: Whoever thought it was a great idea to make a small plastic shoehorn to guide the penis towards the gspot needs to take some anatomy lessons, stat.

Nuts magazine has officially declared her the hottest babe of the year—twice!—and we know how fickle they can be, so it definitely looks like 2008 is her year to take over the planet. Whatever the case, we guess we can finally cut out the Iga stuff as long as she agrees to keep up the good work for all of us. Although, that won't stop us from pulling out the occasional, "we knew her when ..." if it makes us feel better.
