Is that 81, Jess?

I feel like the puppy is way creepier

It's a vag/ass you can pick up and stick on your dick. For some reason, I'm completely down with detachable motorised peen, but the way you have to dissect the female body to do that? Masturbation sleeves I get. Start adding buttcheeks and I get weirded out. Especially with fingers.

Also, somewhere in my head some guy just really wants to dress as a dog. End of story.

I survived my first week at work! Despite some serious exhaustion yesterday and today, I made palpable progress on the starting assignments I've been given! And I'm getting paid for programming! Just like I should be!

I really can't use too many exclamation points to describe my exhausted joy at the moment. I'm going to watch Fringe and collapse into sleep....

Man, FNL can really cast actors who do resemble their fictional family- Buddy Jr and Sr are uncanny.

380 to 80 to 81. Not a single travel plaza with food, and getting off the highway to eat would mean a significant chunk of time. 17 takes me through a couple of small towns with diners.

I was looking at it because...I got no defense.

Wait! I got a defense. This (NSFW) Tim/Kon totally makes me giggle.

No, that doesn't work as a defense.

In a much more serious vein--has there ever been any correlation proven between the way a woman dresses and her risk of being victim of rape or sexual assault? I mean, are the jackasses that are saying "Dressed like that, she was asking for it" contradicted by numbers?

Well, aren't the majority of sexual assaults committed by persons known to the victim? Which is flimsy correlation to contradicting that claim, but there's a line there.

And frankly, the whole statement pisses me off so goddamned much I'm moving into raaaage territory.

I'm actually engaging with someone I thought I got along with that's espousing that line of thinking, and I am in raeg, for sure. I had thought him a little stuffy about some shit, but this has incensed me.

I thought about most rapes being committed by known people, but I wasn't sure if date rape numbers might make the "dressed for it" douchenozzles feel they had a point.

Man, I want to go take part in a slutwalk.

380 to 80 to 81.

We pick up 81 around Scranton, and you're completely correct. Even heading up into NY State there, you're out of luck. Sucks.

I don't give a flying fuck what the numbers say. "She was asking for it" is a bullshit defense that puts the blame on the victim. If someone leaves their front door unlocked, does that mean anyone who walks in and steals shit is not a criminal? If the douchenozzle you're talking to wears a Rolex, is he "asking" to get mugged, and therefore unable to prosecute?

Grandmothers get raped, kids get raped, prostitutes get raped, women get raped by their husbands, men get raped in prison (and elsewhere, to be clear). There is no "asked for it."

*ahem* Hello, choir, pardon the sermon.
