332 - "Try New & Improved Manspread!", and "I Like The Cut Of Your Quarter Panel, Sir!"

Mr. Brown
Yes I do. F off woman.
LOL
9:23 AM Mr. Silver
"Woman into spreading on NYC subways"
9:23 AM Mr. Brown
I would look at her and say “Well, do you have a D and B's?”
9:24 AM Mr. Silver
"Well I can think of 2 reasons, miss...both of them balls."
9:28 AM Mr. Blue
I keep seeing articles about women complaining about guys that spread their legs.
9:28 AM Mr. Silver
Yes?
9:29 AM Mr. Blue
That's all.
If your leg spread is less than your ass width, it's not an issue.
9:31 AM Mr. Brown
Right.
And women actually do it too.
9:32 AM Mr. Silver
Changing species, but in the same male/female gag vein... http://phys.org/news/2014-12-starving-mantis-females-males.html
9:32 AM Mr. Silver
(Attenborough voiceover) "It is at the point of starvation that the female releases the 'will spread for male praying mantis head' pheromone'."
"The male, misunderstanding the female's signal as provocative slang, is doomed."
9:33 AM Mr. Blue
(Herzog voiceover)  "The splaying of the legs symbolizes the misery of the soul wanting to escape."
9:33 AM Mr. Blue
Like I’m sure women cross their legs out of courtesy to other people and not just to cover up against peepers.
9:34 AM Mr. Brown
If all the guys starting putting their legs together then women would start complaining that we all keep adjusting a lot.
LOL
9:47 AM Mr. Silver
Started half a dozen times on a Freudian joke here, but they were all coming out pretty nasty.
"I...don't want to write that one either...um..."
11:28 AM Mr. Brown
So what is your view, Ms. Rose, on the “manspread”?
11:29 AM Mr. Blue
Oh geeze.
11:30 AM Ms. Rose
I don't know what a 'manspread' is!
11:30 AM Mr. Silver
Don't Panic!
I'll clip and send...
Sent...
Good luck...
11:30 AM Mr. Silver
(Power Lifter in Kitchen) "You WIMPS still using peanut butter on your sandwiches?! (Crushes 5lb jar of Skippy)  YOU should be using Manspread!"
11:31 AM Mr. Blue
"20 grams of protein and over 400 calories per tablespoon!  GET SOME!!!"
11:32 AM Mr. Brown
Are you hungry? Or are you trying to fix a hole in the wall? Get yourself some Manspread.
11:33 AM Mr. Blue
(warning: do not take Manspread™ if you are pregnant or may become pregnant, if you have a compromised immune system or are currently undergoing chemo therapy.  if blurred vision or chest pains develop stop use of Manspread™ immediately.)
11:34 AM Mr. Brown
Immediately get yourself some Mansplit.
11:34 AM Ms. Rose
I think there's also a Nutella joke in here...
11:34 AM Mr. Blue
Heheh
11:34 AM Mr. Brown
Mantella
11:36 AM Ms. Rose
"For the calorie-conscious male, who likes his breakfast with extra nuts, the makers of Manspread™ introduce: Mantella™."
11:36 AM Mr. Brown
“For your hot dog, don't forget some Manlish, and Mansturd.”
11:37 AM Ms. Rose
"People won't be worried about the size of your spread on the subway while you're eating Mantella™!"
11:38 AM Mr. Brown
Mansturd is wrong on so many levels.
LOL
11:38 AM Mr. Silver
At least 4, yes.
I stopped working on it after that.
11:38 AM Mr. Blue
Heh
11:39 AM Ms. Rose
“Some hotdog enthusiasts prefer spicy brown Mansturd.” (Okay, I'm going back to work now!)
11:40 AM Mr. Silver
"Use on burgers, hotdogs, sandwiches, or just flush it!" 
"Great for tough toilet cleaning jobs, septic tank treatment, and great for your pipes."
11:40 AM Ms. Rose
HAHAHAHA!
11:41 AM Mr. Brown
“Pardon me, do you have any Grey Poupon Mansturd?”
Maybe just Manpoupon.
11:41 AM Mr. Blue
I picture someone like John Cena in all these commercials.
11:41 AM Mr. Brown
Hahah
11:42 AM Ms. Rose
“U can't C my Manspread!”
He's a wrestler. He'd have a very tiny Manspread.
11:43 AM Mr. Blue
(two fancy Bentleys pull up at a red light) “Hey BRO! You got any MANSTURD?!!!” *girls in bikinis suddenly appear, crazy guitar solo*
11:43 AM Mr. Brown
Mancaroni.
11:45 AM Mr. Silver
Pasta in flexed arm shapes?
11:45 AM Ms. Rose
Mancaroni is GREAT!
11:45 AM Mr. Brown
John Cena would do that commercial.
Holding guy in head lock with bowl of fresh mancaroni in his other hand.
“GET SOME MANCARONI!!!!”
11:47 AM Mr. Silver
"Serve with Awesome Sauce!"
11:47 AM Mr. Brown
Cheddar mancheese is amazing on mancaroni.
Somebody should do a commercial skit where everything starts with “man”.
LOL
11:48 AM Ms. Rose
Manatees eating mangoes?
11:50 AM Mr. Silver
"And try Manwich!  Which...is...pretty much the same...sorry."
11:50 AM Ms. Rose
Manwich is the meat version of Manspread. Always gotta eat it with two hands.
Mr. Brown
You need to manslap the manales.
11:54 AM Mr. Silver
(blinks a lot)
11:54 AM Mr. Brown
Manangling
Mansfunctional
Manmanchu
Manloaf
12:06 PM Mr. Brown
Manerkins the greatest pickles in the world.
12:07 PM Ms. Rose
HA!
12:09 PM Mr. Silver
Mr. Brown has apparently invented "Man Latin".



12:19 PM Mr. Silver
"Screw vandals keying your hood or popping the tires.  EDAG takes damage up to a whole new level!"
12:20 PM Mr. Brown
"Keep vehicle away from pointy things."
12:24 PM Mr. Silver
Iron-on repair patches all over it. I mean, it's cool and all, but...
12:25 PM Mr. Brown
“Today on Top Gear: how to keep warm in the winter in your textile car!”
12:26 PM Mr. Silver
The "female fantasy armor" of automobile body paneling.
12:27 PM Mr. Silver
Everyone knows the less substantial it is, the better it protects, right?
12:28 PM Mr. Blue
I think it would look less cool once that textile starts to weather and look like an old porch awning.
12:28 PM Mr. Brown
Look at my sack o potatoes!
12:32 PM Mr. Silver
We back on Manspread in the subway again?
12:32 PM Mr. Brown
Mantatos
I was thinking that car is like a drivable burlap sack
12:32 PM Mr. Silver
(on phone to dealership) "I'd like my EDAG in burlap please.  An extra $5000 for burlap?  Money is no object!  What?  Oh...Idaho russet markings, I guess.  Will it fray and fade unevenly?  Excellent.  Monday?  Thank you!"
12:32 PM Mr. Blue
Denim.
Gotta drive it around a bit to break it in.
12:33 PM Mr. Brown
Polyester
Ooo! I would take a flannel.
12:34 PM Mr. Brown
“I got my car covered silk, but I can't drive it in the rain.”

331 - LET'S GO PEN!S, Going Nuts On The Plane, Nazi Witze Uber Alles, It's The Babes That Make Venus So Hot and Dangerous, and "To Boldly Go Where No Jello Mold Has Gone Before"

11:04 AM Mr. Silver
Mornin' Ms. Rose.
11:06 AM Ms. Rose
Happy Friday, all.
11:06 AM Mr. Silver
Did you wear your ugly Christmas sweater?
11:08 AM Ms. Rose
Pens t-shirt for me today.
I haven't worn ugly Xmas sweaters since the 80's, when we didn't know they were ugly. Old school, yo.
11:09 AM Mr. Silver
"On the contrary, this is a TERRIBLE Christmas sweater.  It's got nothing to do with Christmas and isn't even a sweater."
11:13 AM Mr. Brown
I read Pens t-shirt way too fast.
11:14 AM Ms. Rose
LOL
11:14 AM Mr. Silver
The old Pen Island effect, eh?
11:14 AM Mr. Brown
Yes
My brain decided I was reading something else.
11:15 AM Ms. Rose
Our hockey team name makes for golden typo opportunities. Me and my dad always text back and forth during the games. Once I sent him: PENS SCORE! Except...that's not what I wrote.
11:17 AM Mr. Blue
LET'S GO PEN!S
11:17 AM Ms. Rose
I sent my typo and dad was like: We need to talk about this new boyfriend of yours...
11:18 AM Mr. Brown
He's got the puck!
11:35 AM Mr. Silver
He's got the ****!



11:53 AM Mr. Silver
"A formal suicide is pending."
11:55 AM Ms. Rose
Okay, in the one picture I had to do a double-take. I thought those men were shoving big bags of nuts in her face. Then I realized they were microphone thingies taped together. LOL
11:58 AM Ms. Rose
"...read the proper nut-handling guidelines." *gigglesnort*
12:06 PM Mr. Blue
I’d rather have nuts in a bag than in a bowl.
12:06 PM Mr. Blue
If you hit turbulence you'll have it all in your lap and possibly down your shirt.
12:06 PM Ms. Rose
ROFL
I wonder what the nut-handling guidelines say about turbulence!
12:11 PM Mr. Brown
I wonder if air marshals get free nuts.
12:14 PM Mr. Blue
Why else would you have the job?
12:17 PM Mr. Brown
Free rides to places but you can never leave the plane.
What was that recent Liam Neeson film again? 'Non-Stop'
(Liam voice) “Are you the one that wanted your nuts in a bowl? Come with me.”



Mr. Blue
1:27 PM Mr. Silver
I haven't seen Boys From Brazil since I was too young to understand what the hell they were talking about.
1:27 PM Mr. Blue
Heh
I haven't seen it either, but I’ve been meaning to watch it.
Imagine pitching this movie to studios.
"What's worse than Hitler?  Ninety four Hitlers!"
1:32 PM Mr. Blue
"You think that's bad...wait for the sequel!  Four hundred and eighteen Hitlers!"
"The Boys 2 Men from Brazil"
1:52 PM Mr. Blue
Hermann Göring was appointed Reichsjägermeister (Imperial Gamekeeper) when the new hunting law was introduced. Thus, when Jägermeister was introduced in 1935, its name was already familiar to Germans—it was sometimes called "Göring-Schnaps."[4]
1:55 PM Mr. Blue
Yes barkeep! I'll have a shot of Goring-Schnaps and some Himmler Cola as a chaser.
2:10 PM Mr. Silver
Pepsi Macht Frei
2:19 PM Mr. Blue
Arby's Macht Frei
2:20 PM Mr. Silver
Arbys Macht Curly Frei
2:20 PM Mr. Blue
Heh
2:23 PM Mr. Silver
New Kool Aid Goebbels Grape!
2:24 PM Mr. Blue
Rommel Raspberry!
Mengelle Mango!
2:25 PM Mr. Silver
Goring Frozen Luftwaffles
Leggo mein Eggo
2:26 PM Ms. Rose
What did I just walk in to?
2:27 PM Mr. Blue
Bormann Banana!
2:34 PM Mr. Silver
Repost:

Then a lot of Nazi products.
2:35 PMMs. Rose
Mmm... Jagermeister. I drank WAY too much of that on Friday night. I heard they used to put a drop of real deer blood in it.
2:37 PM Mr. Silver
"Deer?"
"Close enough."



Mr. Silver
11:17 AM Mr. Brown
You could use that on a lot of planets.
11:18 AM Mr. Blue
The surface of Venus is not so attractive, with temperatures that can melt lead, although they say it's a dry heat.
I think we've done that joke.
11:19 AM Mr. Brown
I see there have been experiments with dropping stuff to the surface see if it survives. I'm bored. Let's drop cheese balls and see what happens.
11:21 AM Mr. Brown
Jupiter will never be explored. You'd need one heck of a device for that.
11:21 AM Mr. Blue
You could probably use the same floatie things for Jupiter.
We landed a probe on Venus that remained in contact with Earth for 23 minutes in 1970. Then another in 1978 that lasted for 45 minutes.
11:23 AM Mr. Silver
That place just eats anything dropped on it.
11:25 AM Mr. Blue
Everything is crushed/melted.
11:26 AM Mr. Silver
"Our last Venus lander has stayed intact and to spec for 6 months so far."
"That's GREAT!"
"Not really...it's a cinder block."
11:27 AM Mr. Blue
There's got to be lots of metals that can survive 900 degree temps but probably not the crushing pressure.
11:28 AM Mr. Silver
"Conditions on Venus are so hostile, scientists theorize the planet itself can't survive them long."
11:29 AM Mr. Blue
They used to think Venus was a swamp.
Like... a whole Earth-sized planet, but just 1 type of habitat.
11:39 AM Mr. Silver
(Front page closeup) "New blimp Venus mission proves planet is toxic Hell ball inhabited by nubile white women in diaphanous pastel mini tunics, bearing spears.  Astronaut Rod Hardpecs and team determined to land despite risks."
11:45 AMMs. Rose
"Rod Hardpecs".... HA HA HA HA!
11:49 AM Mr. Blue
(mealy sidekick) "Rod, this planet is inhospitable! My readings show it's over 85 degrees!"
Mr. Silver
(Skippy) "Look, Captain Hardpecs!  It's a city full of young women!  A Greek city on Venus!"
(Rod) "Whatcha think, Doc?"
(Doc) "Vell, it is zertainly possible that an ancient Earth culture kame heere und zettled touwzands of years ago."
(Skippy) "We should investigate.  See if the atmosphere and pressure and temperature is ok in this mysterious bubble."
(Rod) "That's the spirit!  How'd you like to be the first teen astronaut to get a date on Venus?"
(Skippy) "Would I?  Oh boy!"
(Rod) "Get out there, Tiger!"
(Skippy enters airlock, waves, hits button.  Implodes, and melts)
(Rod) "Whatta ya think, Doc?"
(Doc) "Mmmm...furrtherr invezdigazion will require zum precautions..."
(Rod) "Precautions are for the timid, Doc. (lights up cig) Only the bold will conquer a planet like this."
(Doc) "But Rod!  Your zuit!  You kannot go out wizout it!"
(Rod grabs bottle of space scotch and a couple glasses) "I'll be back for dinner."  
(Enters Venus atmosphere...lantern jaw all the protection he needs.)



11:54 AM Mr. Brown
My first day on the job at NASA: “Hey guys, there is this thing I want to do. Its called a jello mold ship, and I want to go through the sun with it. Get on it. Use what money you want.”
11:20 AM Mr. Blue
I see 2 spinning newspaper headlines...
"Mr. Brown named head of NASA."
and "NASA goes bankrupt, bought out by Haitian street vendor."
11:20 AM Mr. Silver
"Jello through the Sun project a disaster!"
11:58 AM Ms. Rose
My mother actually owns a copper jello mold in the shape of the Starship Enterprise. Not kidding. These are the things that will comprise my 'inheritance' when my parents expire.
12:51 PM Mr. Blue
How does the jello stay up in that shape?
12:51 PM Mr. Brown
Three to four boxes of jello will do it.
12:52 PM Mr. Blue
It'd need some kind of wire endoskeleton, or maybe Twizzlers.
12:53 PM Mr. Silver
Hehe...a solid gelatin Enterprise.
"Sulu...taste factor 4.  Scotty...we're going to need full pineapple bits."
(Chekov) "EEn-comink sehrving slicer, Kiptin!"
(Entire ship jiggles)
"Damage reports!"
(Spock) "Minimal damage...the gelatin held."
12:54 PM Mr. Blue
"Enemy determined to be craving snacks, Captain."
12:54 PM Mr. Silver
"Engineering!  What have we got!?"
(Scotty) "Wall, captain.  I kin re-root power past the mini marshmallows te get enough pahwer t' return fire, but I kennah gaurantee it'll last long." 
"Do what you have to!"
(Scotty) "Aye...I'll do me best."
(Uhura) "Incoming transmission.  They're asking us to surrender and prepare to be served."
(Sulu) "Paper plate at long range, Captain."
"Scanners.  What can you tell me?"
(Chekov) "Slicer pozeeshuning for anothir pass, Kiptin."
"Spock!  Today!"
(Spock) "Scanners show baked beans, barbecued pork, scalloped potatoes and green beans."
"Life forms?"
(Spock) "One.  Gargantuan.  Appears to register as...human, Captain."
"On screen."
(Giant hands holding plate and serving slicer...United Federation of Planets T-shirt)
(Spock) "Fascinating."
(Bones) "That...thing?  It's human?"
(Spock) "Sensors register homo sapiens sapiens.  Age approximately 57 earth years, failing health, potbellied, approximately 5000 miles tall."
(Bones swings science station viewer from Spock and looks in) “Of all the ridiculous...impossible...”
(Spock) “And yet, as you can clearly observe, Doctor, the facts speak for themselves.”
(Bone) “Good God, Jim!”
(Sulu) "The serving tool is coming in.  Ramming speed!"
"Evasive maneuvers!"
(At party, jello Enterprise slips off the table and onto the floor)
(Overweight Trek geek) "Damn it!  I need paper towels here!"

330 - Holey See-Thru Dress, The Knights Templar Were So Secretive Their Own Faith Was Unknown To Them, "Mad Babe - The Farm Warrior", The Community Essential Comic Sans, "I'd Rather F Up Your Life Than Admit To F-ing You"

Mr. Silver
I think I'm going to keep this GIF...
"This dress is made from 3D printed pl-holy crap she's practically naked!"
10:27 AM Mr. Silver
Good pictures too.
Heh.
10:28 AM Mr. Amethyst
^^
10:29 AM Mr. Brown
Wearing a nude tard.
10:30 AM Mr. Amethyst
Excuse me?
10:29 AM Mr. Brown
Nude leotard.
11:18 AM Mr. Silver
Morning Ms. Rose
11:23 AM Mr. Silver
(Psst!  No more plastic dress links...there's a lady here.)
11:24 AM Ms. Rose
Where?
11:25 AM Mr. Silver
As long as we’re on things I can't stop lookin' at...
Gimmie.
11:27 AM Ms. Rose
I'd take the car over the dress. It was really difficult to type that just now, but it's true.
11:30 AM Mr. Silver
I have boots that would go with the dress, but the bag? Well...all the coins and small stuff always falls out through the bottom when I go out with it. 
So yeah...I'm likin' the car.



10:43 AM Mr. Blue
I had a bunch of good bookmarks from yesterday that I lost, including the pope that died chewing his own arm off and bashing his head into a wall.
10:45 AM Mr. Blue
Boniface VIII
11:00 AM Mr. Silver
Bashaface VIII
11:00 AM Mr. Blue
Do you know anything about Baphomet?
11:00 AM Mr. Silver
The devil?
I've read about him several times but don't remember his shtick.
11:01 AM Mr. Blue
Some horned deity that the Knights Templar supposedly worshiped... but could've been a smear campaign by its enemies.
11:01 AM Mr. Silver
All of that was a smear.
11:02 AM Mr. Blue
Figured.
11:02 AM Mr. Silver
They wanted the money and the property and to remove the large and inconvenient "we only listen to God" army from play.
11:03 AM Mr. Blue
There was no written account of anything relating to Baphomet in the Templar’s own records... and under torture different knights described the deity completely differently. Sometimes it was a cat, sometimes it was a disembodied head, etc.
11:04 AM Mr. Silver
Nod...for monks they were remarkably unaware of their own evil deity's aspects.
I’ll bet they could all tell you, in detail, all about God, Jesus, the Holy Ghost, all the apostles, all the archangels, and about 40 saints though.
11:19 AM Mr. Silver
Knights Templar...devil worshipers without a clue, or just rich and a hair's breadth away from the pope telling them to crusade against any king he didn't like? 



Mr. Blue
The Mad Max trailer looks good.
The director has done some eclectic stuff.
9:25 AM Mr. Blue
All the Mad Max's, Babe, Babe: Pig in the City, Happy Feet 1 and 2, Lorenzo's Oil.
9:25 AM Mr. Silver
I haven't managed to watch the second trailer yet.
I liked the 1st one.
11:37 AM Mr. Blue
Looks like he's still using the same style of filming; like weird zoom ins and close ups.
11:38 AM Mr. Silver
Yay!
11:38 AM Mr. Blue
I'm not sure if he did that in Babe or Happy Feet.
11:38 AM Mr. Silver
I don't think he did it in either one.
11:39 AM Mr. Blue
How many cars blew up in Babe: Pig in the City?
11:40 AM Mr. Silver
I, along with most of the world, never saw it.
 I heard Pig in the City was both strange and quite good.
"Michael Bay to remake 'Babe'."
Sheep in power armor...explosions everywhere...
11:42 AM Ms. Rose
HA!
11:44 AM Ms. Rose
(Movie trailer voice) "In the apocalyptic barnyard world of 2065, the world will finally know...why the sheep...are afraid." *barn explodes*
11:45 AM Ms. Rose
That was also a very obscure Pearl Jam reference. Their second album was supposed to be called "Why are sheep afraid?" but they went with "Vs." instead. I have the sheep t-shirt though...
11:51 AM Mr. Silver
(Babe, toting a pulse laser rifle and pacing before the troops, explosions and particle beams around position)  "We've gotta make it to the paddock before the dropship gets here and the nukes go off, and some of you are bleating like kids out there!  Sure we could all die, but we've gotta chance to break through if you all FIGHT!  What are you?  Sheep?"
"Yes."
"Oh...yeah...lemme start again...um."
11:52 AM Ms. Rose
Bwwahahaha!
Farmer Mable in the background with her semi-automatic butter churn? Maybe?



12:56 PM Ms. Rose
I received an email stating: "I own and operate an essential business to my community." It was all misspelled, in 72-pt. Comic Sans. I am so tempted to reply in kind...
12:58 PM Mr. Blue
"Thanx for you,re email"
12:58 PM Ms. Rose
"We r a super-seerious bizness too!"
12:59 PM Mr. Blue
What's the business?
I'm just wondering what's so essential to the community.
1:00 PM Mr. Silver
Yes, the possibilities are making me salivate.
1:00 PM Mr. Blue
He/she sounds like they're doing the community a *favor* by operating the business.
1:01 PM Mr. Silver
Please say it's an adult illiteracy service.
PLEASE say it was that!
1:02 PM Mr. Blue
"What, you think we're in this business for the piles and piles of money?  No! we're doing it for the community!"
1:04 PM Mr. Silver
"My name is Chad Templeton III. I own “Chad Templeton III Essential Services”. I provide me...Chad Templeton III...to all the deserving people of the world."
1:04 PM Mr. Blue
I think I’m gonna register a company like that; kind of like "The Human Fund", only a corporation.
1:04 PM Ms. Rose
There was actually no business name listed. So there ya go... totally essential.
1:04 PM Mr. Blue
Ahhh
1:04 PM Mr. Silver
Totally.
1:05 PM Ms. Rose
I would have peed myself it was an adult literacy place though. That would be worthy of printing out for my wall.
The Comic Sans was awesome, though. Even if you know nothing of the interwebz, there are enough font jokes out there that I was under the impression Comic Sans was finally dying. I guess this person just crawled out from under their rock. Maybe they were a professional community hermit!
1:24 PM Mr. Silver
Is there a Comic Serif font?
1:24 PMMs. Rose
God, I hope not!
That's all you need are serifs added to an already-atrocious font.
2:09 PM Mr. Silver
You don't really need to call it Comic Sans if there's no Comic Serif, right?



(Before anyone out there throws a fit, all if this group know real rapes happen. The article and conversation is about definition and a specific type of scenario. Anyone who can't understand the conclusions here is pretty naïve, or self-delusional - Mr. Silver)
Mr. Silver
"One might say it was my usual Friday night 'class' when I was in the sorority.  Too bad I wasn't getting credits for it, eh?"
Even this title they slapped on the article means the writer didn't get it.
9:25 AM Mr. Blue
I don't disagree with her exact words:
“I believe that she experienced something that she regretted. I believe that she got very drunk, and had sex with a man that she regretted the next morning. To me, that’s not a crime. That’s not rape. That’s a learning experience.”
9:26 AM Mr. Brown
Right. That's refusing to admit going and taking part.
9:30 AM Mr. Blue
But if she was drunk you can't do that as a guy. But...what if, as is probable, the guy was drunk too? Aren't they both rapists?
9:30 AM Mr. Brown
That’s the point.  There is abuse and restraint, and there is drunk people engaging in stupidity.
9:30 AM Mr. Blue
Yeah.
I don't know the specifics about this particular case, I’m just speaking hypothetically.
9:38 AM Mr. Silver
“It makes one wonder, why do you not just get up and leave?” Patton asked
I agree with her for the most part...this attitude and this definition of 'rape' have developed to this state as a part of pop culture.  It was used, used in court, sensationalized, used in entertainment, used by celebrity biographers to feed to fans...and now it's "real".
10:16 AM Mr. Silver
I had another example but I forget what it was.
Oh...the classic "I don't remember" embarrassing drinking night.
The “easy out” to appear blameless for one's actions.  However I've also had men and women who claim not to remember anything about a drunken spree talk about the stuff they “don't remember”, sometimes in great detail, later.
10:18 AM Mr. Silver
Sorry...'I don't want to admit anything' is not the same as 'I don't remember'.
10:18 AM Mr. Brown
I see rape as when it's forced on somebody, not we both got drunk and had fun
then next morning said 'Oh God what I do?'
10:19 AM Mr. Silver
...or didn't like it...
Or who you accepted as a partner.
10:19 AM Mr. Brown
Yeah.
“I'll call it rape.”
10:20 AM Mr. Silver
Or people told you to, and you're unprincipled or easily led.
“I don't want to admit anything, but a bunch of people know. What to do?”

(For the benefit of those of you who might find us callous or clueless or chauvinist -- sometime in the far future of my 200 pages of backlogged text, I tell the more evil tale of a related sort of case where the woman's "gang rape" was completely fabricated in an effort to destroy friends of mine and me. We were just fortunate that she told the authority a Looney Tunes story and it was impossible for the orgy (place, time, participants) to have taken place. - Mr. Silver)
