@Jessica Hussein Lovejoy: BRB, getting Rahm'ed: I always thought of Mary Mag as Jesus' fag hag. So that story isn't as erotic as the story that...

I'd be more impressed if the unearthed Jesus' favorite lube.

@dancerevolution: Spin-offs don't usually stray too far from the original. Although turning The Man with the Golden Gun into Fantasy Island must've required a ton of cocaine. Ideally, the Gossip Girl spin-off would be a mute Noh play with Dorota leading a cast of the servants and underlings of the Gossip Girls. But…

@dancerevolution: Starts with G and ends with G? All I can think of is "gag". You gotta give us more hints!

If you can't hold your nose, point at your significant other and scream "J'accuse!", who can you do it with?

@i_believe_in_peace_bitch: win!

@fromby: I agree completely. Why is Jezebel quoting the disreputable WSJ on this anyway?

Naming the center after a drug-fueled fantasy world is a rather unfortunate, if prescient, mistake.

@SisterMaryMartha: Well, sometimes personal rumors can go a bit funny. One time, I had a guy who was A) not a Claymate, B) not into American Idol, C) not even remotely into pop music tell me that he is a personal acquaintance of Clay Aiken and his family, and that he knows the truth about Aiken: Aiken apparently had…

@PurplePurple Day Lewis: Thanks for the spillage! I'm agnostic on your rumor, but I appreciate you sharing it.
