Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Still doesn't excuse what G calls "water-soluble driving skills".
Heh, I'm so stealing that! And yeah, the more drivers you have, the more terrible drivers you have. My favorites are the people who normally take the bus/metro, but will drive if the weather is bad. Because if you're not used to driving in normal weather, what better time to give it a try?
Sigh.

Right? This always flummoxes me. If it's snowing and icy, why would you drive when you have a nice warm Metro. Except, of course, if there is a lot of walking involved. Still, I trust other drivers in bad weather WAY less than usual, which keeps me off the road.
Hmm, yes, a nice warm walk to the bus stop followed by a nice warm wait for the bus then a nice warm wait on the train platform until the underheated train comes along, with another nice warm walk from the station to the office to look forward to. Can't imagine what people are thinking.

WTFF indeed. That is really, truly awful.
My feeling on the school issue is that it's a religious school. Religious schools frequently have rules that students have to abide by the rules of that religion. I think that the school was wrong to expel the students, especially the way they did it, but I think the court decision was reasonable.
Reasonable or not, the humiliation they're going to associate with their sexuality is going to haunt them for a long time.
