I would assume that he was smug about making an unwilling woman watch and listen to him getting his dick sucked.

I'm guessing if there was an acceptable backstory here, he probably would have done more in the ad to distance himself from said wife. To not do so just hangs a lantern on why a person would find such an ad gross and creepy.

Yeah but if there were some extenuating circumstance that made this not the titanically dick move it sounds like, he would have mentioned it in the ad.

None of those things make this acceptable in my book. Even if you're free to date, there are times and places where that ought to go on the back burner.

Unfortunately I can believe it. A friend of mine was kept in the hospital for a couple of days due to her difficult labour issues. Her boyfriend showed up at my door with flowers, "I've always been attracted to you, thought now was a good time..." Blech.

she didnt withdraw. I don't think she submitted

Izzy had sex with the ghost of her boyfriend and gave a deer mouth to mouth. It was stupid. I agreed with her.

Yeah I don't think either of them comes out of this looking great, but Shonda Rhimes bringing up that she still hates her, after this much time, and when Rhimes is still on top of the world — not to mention using "Heigl" to mean asshole on set, when there was another asshole on that set who physically attacked a…

OK, so I'm 99.9% sure this is the way it went down -she didn't submit her name for consideration (or submitted, and then withdrew), then someone asked her about it in an interview because they didn't see her name among the list of potential nominees and she explained it was because of the crappy writing. I don't…

Eh? Doesn't Vicky's secret tend to hang on to their big name models for a while? Alessandra, Adriana, Heidi, a couple blonde gals whose names I can't think of have all been around well into their late 20s/30s and post baby.

She's the hottest model at the moment, the most talked about (and certainly more than just a 'VS Model', that's not what she's known for, at least not in Europe). I think she's just taking advances of other opportunities she's getting offered right now.

Very true, adrenaline can make you do/feel crazy shit.

The adrenaline from the excruciating pain of being that badly burned would temporarily make him not feel pain, I am thinking.

You don't understand the difference between development and change. Your legs change throughout your life too, but we don't say that your legs never stop developing. Development is "to cause to progress from an embryonic to an adult form." The brain doesn't full develop into its adult form until age 25. That's a…

A lot of places that have lower ages of consent you'll still find teacher/pupil relationships are illegal.

This illustrates a basic difference between civil and criminal law. In criminal the evidence is pretty much limited to the incident (crime) at hand. In civil law more is allowed in so the jury can get a better idea of the general circumstances of the case. The amount of this extra information can vary state to state.

Excellent point, because in that novel/movie, Tracy Flick is a "mature", focused, super-responsible teen. She's seen as a kind of little grown up mascot and praised for her adult-seeming poise.

You're fucking creepy.

"The district had even gone so far as to present the 14-year-old's sexual history to discredit her." WOW.
