I think somebody just went a bit overboard in their keywords.
I mean, syphilis is TREATABLE, for pity's sake. Why would you want to date somebody who couldn't even be bothered to take antibiotics?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
The sad part is, I bet there's a legit audience for a service like that. People with herpes, it can be kind of a bar to dating people without herpes. The people without aren't big fans.
(There are better treatments for syphilis than for herpes, but the word "syphilis" is a lot scarier to say.)

Hey, I think the funny syphilis might be charming.
No, wait, I'm lying.

Don't take the A train. (Bugmenot.)
It seems that a homeless man set his shopping cart on fire. The resulting blaze made it impossible to use the C line; the A line is now trying to carry the traffic of C and A combined.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Betsy, do you still have the link for those little infant socks with the mary janes? (That was you right? If not, see below.)
