I love that gif. Thank you for the laugh. Also, completely cosign the sentiment, of course.

This makes me want to run for office in Wisconsin solely on the platform of legislating penises, dictating where they can go, how often, and under what circumstances. My bill, the "Sanctity of Balls and Cock" bill, would make Viagra cease to be covered by any medical insurance, would make prostate exams more painful…

I wonder how much of this is simply keeping the brain active in different ways? I mean, haven't scientists long said that doing crosswords or Sudoku regularly can help ward off dementia? Feels like the same science to me, but what do I know? I was an English major who is convinced her daily completion of the NY Times…

I don't keep lists and I don't remember everyone I've had sex with (and it's not that high a number, I don't think, nowhere close to the 50 Samantha felt an accomplishment). But I can remember everything about the day I met my first boyfriend, every second of a conversation with a college crush, every moment of a…

My reaction to everything about this case:

Mila Kunis is my people. I live in very fashionable and hip Manhattan, but if I am running errands I am blissfully in yoga pants and fitted tees and flip flops. I. Just. Don't. Give. A. Fuck. and being comfortable as I am bombing around from grocery store to nail salon to florist to dry cleaner is of primo importance.…

Any time reality resembles a Monty Python sketch, I am happy. Will they offer him a Norwegian Blue parrot next?

I hear ya. I just believe in my gut that this is as big as (if not bigger than) they say it is. I mean, those fuckers are called The Rape Crew! Before this incident! I mean, there must be more: more assaults, more coverups, more complicity, more abdication of morality by adults and students alike. The current…

Of course his attorney would say that. Perhaps it is true. But Anonymous says he actually participated in raping her later in the evening, and they may be a lot of things, but liars is not usually one of them.

Yeah, you are probably right, but some of his talk sounded to me like he was present at the time and in the room as the rape was occurring, which led me to criminal solicitation. But I am wishful thinking. Probably nothing will happen to the onlookers, or the adults, just those two boys, sold out by an entire culture…

Agreed. I also feel as though we are in a "The Accused" scenario.... e.g. for that Nodianos kid, who was there, not only cognizant of the rape but egging it on verbally, wouldn't criminal solicitation of rape be a viable charge?

Seriously. My best friend made us in her wedding party do a flash mob dance during the reception (I do not dance, and hate being a public spectacle—- although I do like karaoke. Contradictions: I haz them). So I find it completely fair game to bring that up as something I did for her that demands acknowledgment, like…

Is the fucking plastic bowl useful? I have yet to be invited to one of those female-driven pyramid schemes (Tupperware, Mary Kay, sex toys, etc), but of them all I'd actually probably pony up for plastic bowls and vibrators. The Mary Kay.... not so much. :)

Agreed, but there is more to say because the whole "breast is best" shit allows people to scream "science" and "health" and "nutrition" while basically swinging the pendulum back on women's rights. I am not going to debate the health benefits of breast feeding except to say that there is NO WAY they are substantive…

Agreed. But what of the good kids with the right parents at the parties where this was happening? What has gone so wrong in the culture at Steubenville that NO ONE stepped in, kid or adult?

Completely agree it's the culture and thus the adults at fault. I wonder, given that all this was happening at parties where "good kids" also were, what has happened there that not one of those kids stood up and stopped it? So sickening.

This comment made me laugh. And I agree, it has to be a very small number. That guy has charisma to burn. Crazy Stupid Love was a terrible movie except for every scene with him in it. Humina humina.

Between this story and Steubenville, I just can't with humanity right now. Off to snuggle with my dog instead.

Was her guess on the car right? Well done to your girlfriend. Did you coach her on what to do in each game she might encounter, or is she as much of a student of TPIR as you?

THANK YOU. Let's take back the language of this debate.
