J&B Have A Comment Policy
- This edited version of our comment policy is effective as of May 10, 2006.By publishing a comment to this blog you are granting its proprietors, John Holbo and Belle Waring, the right to republish that comment in any way shape or form they see fit.
Severable from the above, and to the extent permitted by law, you hereby agree to the following as well: by leaving a comment you grant to the proprietors the right to release ALL your comments to this blog under this Creative Commons license (attribution 2.5). This license allows copying, derivative works, and commercial use.
Severable from the above, and to the extent permitted by law, you are also granting to this blog's proprietors the right to so release any and all comments you may make to any OTHER blog at any time. This is retroactive. By publishing ANY comment to this blog, you thereby grant to the proprietors of this blog the right to release any of your comments (made to any blog, at any time, past, present or future) under the terms of the above CC license.

If you do NOT agree to these terms, for pete's sake do NOT leave a comment. It's that simple.
- 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.)
E.
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."
