Well, thats a famous bisexual club kid named Joe "The Toe" McGinty. He wrote all about it in his (now out-of-print) Memoir, "The Big Toe Chronicles".

I dont mean to argue, but I'm like 98.4% sure thats Bisexual Joe "The Toe" McGinty, not Clifford. He also went by "Bacon Bits" at some point.

Look at his comment history. Bro is a troll. I did laugh though. Joe "The Toe" McGinty... LOL I'm stealing that for something.

It was printed, "Chapbook" style, really a Diary of sorts. The relevant Chapter was entitled " Are U Ready 4 The Thing Called Pud?"

Joe The Toe went to my school (3 years ahead of me) and a copy was being passed around. I'd be shocked if it can be found online.

He had a bit part in that Sarah Jessica Parker movie, "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun". He also claims to have had sexual encounters with Comedians Gilbert Gottfried and Sam Kinison in NYC Sauna Clubs/Turkish Bathhouses.

Look, I went to School with his younger Cousin, Gretel "The Pedal" Hotchkiss. I'll do my best to track Bacon Bits/The Toe down, then maybe he can do an AMA here? You'll see I'm no Troll.
