Well, thanks for answering, anyway. BTW, I never thought it was a joke about having sex with her now, just for the record. ---

> [@Diogenes\_the\_Cynic](#): > > Wow, it really did just sail over your head like Sputnik. Calling her a whore would not even be a joke. Do you think that all unmarried women who get pregnant are whores? If your answer is no, then you can’t say that was the point of the joke. Except the joke isn’t about her getting pregnant, it’s about the context in which she got pregnant. And bottom line, she wasn’t actually pregnant, so the implication is still that she’s such a whore she fucked A-Rod behind the bullpen. I really have a hard time believing you don’t get the joke. It seems like you are willing to defend anything as long as it’s insulting to Sarah Palin, and that frankly is revolting. ---

The joke is about her not knowing how to use birth control, dude. I won’t accuse you of being disingenuous, though. I think you really just don’t get it. ---

Ok so where in this joke do you hear something about birth control? “One awkward moment for Sarah Palin at the Yankee game, during the seventh inning, her daughter was knocked up by Alex Rodriguez.” ---

Then there is this one where he actually uses the word slut: “Bought makeup from Bloomingdale’s to update her ‘slutty flight attendant’ look,” So my interpretation is based on the words he actually used, and yours is based off of shit you made up. ---

> [@Guinastasia](#): > > That and “white trash” is usually described as “trailer park” Eh, I called my white sister ghetto last week. It’s not always code for nigger, but in this case it’s pretty clear as they called someone ghetto when they aren’t particularly ghetto for wearing a symbol that has nothing to do with the ghetto. ---

Sure, that’d be a double standard. Has anyone actually exhibited this double standard, though? Who’s been giving Levi high fives (literal or rhetorical) while simultaneously trashing Bristol? Granted, Levi doesn’t get talked about nearly as much as Bristol, but I’d argue that’s simply because Levi’s mom wasn’t running for vice president. ---

This is a litlte personal. Ahem. > [@Kobal2](#): > > @ **Maia’s Well** : on my part, it was… sorta. I was smirkingly observing that **kenner** ’s "only X days [till she’s legal] was reminiscent of the “only X days” geek meme about the Olsen twins a few years ago. So it’s a sexual joke, but if anything it’s more about the Olsen twins that about Malia, and it’s really, really more about geek fantasms than either. > And if that still offends you, fuck you with a chainsaw. Ok, Pigfucker. First off, let me say I am filled with disdain and disgust towards you as a person. Counting down the days until you are legally allowed to engage is sexual congress with a specific individual demonstrates that you have real sexual feelings toward that individual currently. You want to fuck a child. That should and does offend me. Secondly, the pre-emptive little if…then…FU to **Maia’s Well** is out of line and a little cowardly. If you can’t bother to wait for the action before responding with the massive, disproportionate re-action then you are not fit for human discourse. Kind of also demonstated by the 80’s Valley girl bullshit insult you pulled out of your oversized, villanous pathetic ass. You couldn’t even be bothered to use the standard minimizing modifer gently? Gag me to the Max. And hiding the fuck you in an if clause is a chickenshit attempt to put the responsibility of the insult on the other party. If you feel the need to insult someone, stand up like an adult and own it, you vile excremented globule of yak cum. Thirdly, I find it hard to believe you are so moronic that you think you can justify your repugnant behavior by linking it to the “harmless” bit of fun you all had with the Olsen twins. Did you not see how they turned out? You think that has nothing to do with how they were treated by the faceless misogynistic internet pedophiles like yourself. Premature sexualization of children is intensely damaging to their psychological growth, and willfully participating in that makes you a little bit of a monster. But I understand you, you just can’t help yourself. In conclusion, Kobal2 go fuck a pig. ---

I don’t know **Kobal2** from Adam as a poster, really, but blaming the shattered psyches of the Olsen twins on him (and the subsequent “BoHo fashion” that’s been inflicted on an undeserving public)? Come on. I’d be willing to accept that he’s MAYBE responsible for the Hannah Montana ho boots debacle. Or if Raven Symone starts dealing coke. But the Olsens, really?
