Do you remember ever reading the story that was from the POV of one of the prisoners performing 110-montauk? (They were never explicit about what he did, though of course we can infer things.) It seriously added to the horror of it all. Knowing any class D in the position was probably a sociopathic sex offender to

No, evil would be telling people to Google it >:)

You ever notice how much she loves describing the details of whatever violent crime she's condemning? She's practically salivating here. It's really uncomfortable—like hearing someone detail their eighteen-paragraph long plan for what they'd do in a zombie apocalypse, when you realize that they've been thinking about

"Talk about government overreach! Obama says he's against torture, then he approves procedure 110-montauk?!"

And then Squidward's Suicide was on the news.

We can definitely all be angry, and we all have a lot to be angry about. I'm so sorry you went through that, but I'm glad that you aren't afraid to call what happened to you sexual assault.

Agreed. It's just another way to avoid taking responsibility for your own words and beliefs.

Yeah...and if his argument is saying that you shouldn't use a term like rape to describe sexual harassment and assault because people think of rape as a very specific act...well, maybe he should remember that next time he feels like saying he's just been raped because his party didn't win enough elections or someone

Kinja's just very upset about this sketch.

Let's not even get started on they guy in drag robotically going "tee hee, okay!" every time. I just. I can't. I'm not saying that this sketch would have fundamentally been any better if they'd hired a female actor to play that part, but damn if it doesn't hammer home the "three guys making fun of women and consent

Curse you, Kinja!

It's actually very revealing about the ignorance many people have regarding sexual assault. The fact that this guy thinks it is *absurd* to suggest that pressuring someone for sex, sleeping with them when they're too fucked up to talk or move or trying to blackmail them into sex is rape.

That comic was what came to my mind when I read the words "devil's advocate" here too.

In theory playing devil's advocate is supposed to be used in civil, respectful debating when someone attempts to argue from a position they didn't necessarily agree with, but that might help someone see their position on an issue

I don't care what someone's reasons for not asking girls out is. I was bullied for pretty much all of my school experience and I was generally too shy to flirt with guys until after I graduated college. Does that mean they owed it to me to figure out I was lonely and sweep me off my feet? Does that mean if I had come

The body scanner registered an actual flesh and blood penis on a trans woman as a groin anomaly. So it has nothing to do with plastic.

The machine cannot tell whether it is artificial or not.

Man, were they at least Chick tracts?

I genuinely would like for there to be a conservative equivalent to The Daily Show (The Colbert Report does not count, silly.) I would really be interested in watching it.

I've seen comedians and pundits try to make things they call conservative alternatives to the Daily show. And they all end up either dissolving into

All right. I'm really kind of done here. I don't know if you're just willfully misunderstanding, or if you genuinely don't know why anyone might have a problem with, say, a congress largely comprised of wealthy, straight white males above the age of 50 making decisions about problems that affect a more diverse

The genetic makeup of a person may not determine the perspective they have, but the culture and circumstances they are raised in will. Do you think that a person who has been wealthy all his life and never had to worry about money has the same perspective as someone who has lived their entire life in poverty? Do you
