    Whatever the rights and wrongs of posting this guy's personal information, I did learn from one of his photos about a fetish I'd never come across: CFNM (Clothed Female, Naked Male).

    Thanks Amir!

    Everyone is having a nice laugh right now, but it won't seem so funny if this guy commits suicide.

    I believe the word for that would be "hilarious."

    Every time you misuse the word "angst," God kills an emo-kid. Please, think of the emo-kids.

  7. Not True! by Greyfox · · Score: 4, Funny
    The best way in the world to handle scammers is by impaling. Impaling would be a cornerstone of my regime. I don't think we've had enough of it in the past 500 years or so, and I aim to bring it back. I'd be Bruce the Impaler. Don't knock it -- during Vlad's reign, you could leave a bag of gold on the street in Romania and no one would touch it. Why? They didn't want to get impaled.

    I doubt I'd go for Vlad's solution to the homeless problem though. He invited them all to a feast, locked them in and burned the building down. Me, I got nothing against homeless people. If you want to be homeless that's your business. So, "yes" impaling, "no" burning homeless people to death. Any successful regime must have compasison after all. Maybe "yes" burning spammers alive too. On the days we're not impaling them. I'm all about choices.

    My regime would also replace all organized relgion with a state sponsored one involving smurfs. Non-smurfy activities would be punishable by impaling. Non-smurfy activities like scamming or spamming.

    I figure I'm a shoo-in on the next Republican ticket...
