@TopLevelExecutive: I get the sense that his defenders are starting to do some of that, although it's less of a slut-shaming and more of just a shaming-shaming thing.

Lane's dad was straight out of a Charles Dickens novel, eh what?

@saintbernadette: I wasn't sure if it was that or if it was how old Joan was when she had her first abortion.

If Joan's, say, 4-6 weeks pregnant and Dr. Rapey's only been gone 7 weeks, she could totally pull the wool over his eyes on this one, particularly if he's out of the country when she gives birth. Delivering a couple weeks early can be explained away.

@yvanehtnioj: Yeah, it's TEH GEIGH that's the problem here. Not teh exploitashun.

@the_mayoress: Ooh, I'm flattered. and you're hearted.

@Peppermint: Free tinted moisturizer and soothing eye gel with each new prosthetic leg!

Is this supposed to make me want to buy their product?

My ex-boyfriend once got a bloody nose while wearing an expensive white dress shirt. In about 20 seconds, I got it off him, rinsed it in icy cold tap water, threw a splash of peroxide on it and...problem solved.

@Ipomoea: Yes, I believe Dan referred to that as "gay bar slut get-to-know-ya sex." And here they are all married and paternal.

@AmbivalentAlumna: You might enjoy Dan's book THE KID, which is about how he and Terry adopted their son. It's really moving and funny. Dan tells the story of how they met in even greater detail in the book.

@nolabar10der: I think you're right but what I took issue with is this poster asserts that Craigslist wasn't participating in the "exploitation" of anyone—the scare quotes were hers—and I disagree with that.
