Gad.

That was really funny. What nerve! I just hope that they didn't leave any, uh, evidence, in his office.

John, please get your wife to write us some hilarious takedown of John Derbyshire's latest musings on how hot 15 year old girls are.

C'mon, Julian, you're setting the bar almost insultingly low for Belle there. The Derb likes 'em svelte, slender and hip-less. It practically writes itself.

You know, when I first read this I thought, "wow, those kids are crazy". Then I thought, "hmm, actual maybe I did something a bit like that once." Then I thought, "well, at least it was a night." Then I thought, "Maybe I should shut up."

  • Confused by our comment policy?

    We're testing a strong CC license as a form of troll repellant. Does that sound strange? Read this thread. (I know, it's long. Keep scrolling. Further. Further. Ah, there.) So basically, we figure trolls will recognize that selling coffee cups and t-shirts is the best revenge, and will keep away. If we're wrong about that, at least someone can still sell the cups and shirts. (Sigh.)
