I think it's pretty clear that was not their intent, and this feels like making something out of nothing because of that.

Just because it wasn't their intention doesn't mean that it doesn't have negative consequences.

I think the negative consequences only came about from somebody looking to find it. It's that whole Trouble With A Capital T and that rhymes with P and that stands for Pool idea.

It's just a bit of a stretch to me to get offended by it. Different wording, sure, it's bad. This time, nope.

It takes a lot more than that to offend me. I only posted it because I am in awe of the stupidity to even toe that line, especially since intoxication is an actual legal argument for lack of consent.

Huge stretch. But when you're looking for something to get mad about on twitter, anything will do.

The governor, no. But many, many, many Alex Jones-fueled crackpots here, yes.

Technically being Up For Whatever would include date rape, so it's all good.
