Except that we weren't talking about any real people. You were so busy being offended that you missed the part where that entire story was based on an author writing a book to push a moral panic. Stories like that are one step above a hoax at best.

Ever since that thread, you have taken it upon yourself to play the role of CP's conscience. And that is where you have screwed yourself. The first thing you need to learn about the internet is that it has relaxed morals compared to the real world. The entire point, really, is to get away from real world rules and expectations, and as long as you are going to take it upon yourself to shove your morals into our faces, people are going to take it upon themselves to attack those sensibilities. Law of the internet jungle.

And, before I flatter you any further, my initial joke was only partially aimed at you. The BP prostitution joke is an efficient shot at how skanky Edmonton is, and I was playing off the aforementioned moral panic-outrage angle when I chastised Habernac for his deplorable language.

I'm too lazy to double check, but I think this thread was Godwined a while ago.

If Edmonton is so skanky I really need to get out more.

I'm just itching to give some advice on how to fix a leaky faucet, but it's so hostile in here, I'm afraid I'll get torn to bits.

Maybe you can find a nice girl at BP to scratch your itch! Might have to go to Edmonton to find the right BP though!

Can someone do a Cliffs Notes on the BP thread. I can't remember it.

The nice girl at BP will probably be the one to give him the itch!

Does it come with a neo-steel frame? That would affect the #.

Just when you think you've heard it all....
Where did Christie McAuliffe take her last vacation?

All over Florida.

Christie McAuliffe jokes were making the rounds about five minutes after the Shuttle exploded.

And that was before the internet.
