I'm sort of train-wrecky fascinated by how Jon Stewart will handle it.
Tara: Do you have any books on robots? Giles: Oh, yes, dozens. There's a lot of research to be done in order to--no, I'm lying. Haven't got squat. I just like watching Xander squirm.

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.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Congrats Ethan!

I'm sure he'll give him the gears. He already has been. But I can also see Weiner doing The Daily Show for his "mea culpa" interview.

Our wings are not tired.
Yay Ethan!
I'm torn as to whether I'm more appalled by the sliminess or the stupidity.
Yeah, that. It is the same as I feel with the kids. Last weekend my son took advantage of us being out of town to party at my house with his friends. I was a teenager once; I expect this. I also expect that he should have had the good sense to clean up the bathing suits, towels, bottles, etc. Alas, no sense. He should perhaps consider a career in politics.
I'm disappointed. I like Weiner. I've enjoy watching him when he is on the tv. Now I will be shaking my head sadly when I see him. Kinda wanna smack him upside the head.

Me, too. I may turn on the TV tonight to find out in real time.
God, that's an interesting phrase, "real time." Hmm.

I am still not clear if he is/was DMing people he did not know or sending these to woman he had some sort of relationship with. Perhaps I should watch the vdeo but I am on my phone. It takes his sliminess down a notch if it wasn't univited penis shots.
I am sort of with Jesse- even the politicians who we love and who do great things do seem to have some sort of secret underbelly. I feel better sex than corruption. The only politician I would bet on to not have something like that is Jimmy Carter, and I am not sure he was the most effective president.

Oh, come on, kid! That's more than half of the whole thing, the cover-up!!

what matters to me is the pure lying, sneaking and horribly ineffcient cover-ups that showcase a certain lack in the intellect department
And poor judgment! I mean, why should he expect these women to keep it secret? Because the thrill of getting "racy" photos from a middle-aged politician is so attractive?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Another thing about Weiner is our local news-discussion show host (Emily Rooney, Andy's daughter) was saying her nephew worked for Weiner, and he was a colossal asshole to his staff. So that's also disappointing.

I think I want to start a consulting business teaching politicians how to not use the internets.

Friends of mine in high school had an epic party with their parents away, and then got busted because the house was way cleaner when they got back than when they left.
