I'm not going to lie, I was very satisfied with the A.M. Crunchwrap I picked up. Having worked at the Bell during high school and the early part of college, I knew enough to skip the awful pink sludge they call sauce that comes on it normally. It has all of my favorite breakfast foods in one package that isn't super…

See, when I read lots of these stories I'm like "Damn, that would have been a whole lot of fun if it weren't for the whole 'dying' part of the story!"

I dunno Anna, if you had been raised differently, I kinda think you might have grown up to have a morbid fascination with explosives.

It's one of those things that you joke about, until you stop and realize that it might actually be the best possible thing we could do for our country.

Okay, so now that all of the innocents are out, can we lock the doors and torch the building?

I hope that one day I'm as much a recalcitrant old bastard as Dick Cheney seems to be.

Again, you miss the point here.

It is also way more fascinating.

Which is a part of the reason that I think skepticism of those numbers is definitely warranted. People here would argue that the stigma keeps victims from stepping forward, but never attach any real numbers or research to back the notion that 90%+ of victims do not step forward.

People are weird.

If you fail to be a skeptic of people telling you what you want to hear, you make it all too easy for those who disagree with you to distract everyone from the meat of your argument by pointing out problems you failed to see.

I've read that article, and have heard those criticisms of the 1 in 4 or 1 in 5 statistics before, and I think those crticisms have real merit. However the study's authors acknowledge the limitations of their numbers (even if Jezebel and other groups do not) and they suggest that what is needed would be a…

Perhaps, though my point is moreso that intellectually dishonest skepticism that finds a problem with the story still finds a problem with the story.

Yes, but that's what happens when you promote a story as the lynchpin for a piece suggesting that society needs to change, I don't think that's unique to rape accusations in the slightest. It's going to be subjected to mountains of skepticism that comes from an intellectually dishonest place, so if you are someone…

But ultimately to use a specific story as the centerpiece for a broader discussion about rape on campus, the facts as you report them need to be accurate. Not because we should need stories to acknowledge the macro statistics that indicate there is clearly a huge problem, but because for most of the broader public to…

It's because there's a problem here, even if Jackie proves to be the wrong person to represent it.

No, because she's unelectable in a general election.

Does anyone actually know any Bill Cosby fans who are dejected?

Can anyone come up with something about Nina Hartley that isn't awesome?

So basically was he like his character in Edmond or like his character in Wild Hogs.
