And none of us deserving the cruelty or the grace -- Leonard Cohen

{{Maria}} Hoping so much for the best outcome for your DH.

That story is completely creepy. I wish I were surprised. Or, you know, what Tep said. I can totally see his friends thinking that story was hilarious.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I would like to know what the reaction of the audience that night was.

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

The story said that the audience was laughing.

I would have liked to have been there with Amanda Marcotte and an axe.

Apparently, at least some of them laughed throughout, but I'm sure at least a handful were grossed out/horrified.

I wonder if he knows just how much trouble he's in. I mean, they would have to find the woman, corroborate the story, and maybe if it's all true, she doesn't want to talk about it.

But I'm trying to imagine someone telling a story about me like that, in front of a laughing audience. Rage.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I read some other stories about it and the audience laughed a lot at the beginning, but I guess they thought the story was going to have a funny twist or something, since this was a comedy fest. When it didn't, there was a lot less laughter.

I want to know what happened between him staying and them making out. If she decided, "What the hell,I wanted to get laid and he's as good as any," then it's a whole different scenario. He becomes an asshole who got lucky, t rather than a rapist. I have been the "lay down to make it go away" person, but I have also been the "what the hell" gal.

Either way, going onto her room without permission is REALLY skeevy.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm dubious that "she" exists at all or that any of this happened. I hope the police investigation ends up discovering that this guy is completely full of shit.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

he claimed that at one point, she took charge of the scenario, was stronger than him, and was kissing him.

what came next was described as a "fish hook" and that's where I became completely weirded out.
