Williams didn't draw the pictures, he only wrote the music.

Ninja, I'm sensing a "let's get this over-with" pattern.But does it have to be every day?

*sigh*(I think it's time for me to take another mental health break from my dear Wonkette.)

Some wealthy do-gooder needs to pull a Peter Thiel and start buying expensive lawyer for the victims of these YouTube crackpots and litigate their asses.

Sure! Benassi being a common last name only means they are ALL in it! (Like the suspects in "Murder on the Orient Express.")

"There are some things that can't be taught it ten easy lessons, or popularized for the masses. They take years of skull sweat. This is treason in an age in which ignorance has come into its own and one man's opinion is as good as another's. But there it is ... the universe is what it is -- and doesn't forgive ignorance."- Robert A. Heinlein, "Glory Road"

I don't believe all women. Never have, never will. Women are people and a lot of people lie.

Believe all women gets you Emmet Till (whose accuser is still alive and now admits she lied.)

I hung around that site a long time, and I think they were serious. If you want to get immediately excoriated over there, all you have to do is say something like (to use an old and perhaps less controversial anymore example) ''Well, what about Paula Jones?'' About 2/3 of the site's readers were women, and while I appreciate the feminist POV at Wonkette and in general, because I think today's women have much to teach to old coots like me, and we have much to answer for, there were some real hardcores over there, ready to jump your shit if you misused a word. The site had a huge schism during the Epstein case over whether to call rape victims under age 18 ''underage women'' or ''children.'' I don't find that mentality here, the sort of ''men are horrible creatures'' thing I saw so often there. I don't want to badmouth too much, because the editor's a really good guy, but some of his writers and readers were so far left they'd make Wonkers look centrist. I was asked to leave but they did me a favor, because otherwise I wouldn't have found this place, which gets far more reader interaction and is more fun IMO anyway. Wonkette is sort of what Pajiba used to be.

The deniability was thrown in there for extra snark

so the white board with chris brown and PE is because benny benassi is also a producer who did tracks for chris brown and one of benassi's hits was a remix of "bring the noise" that's actually pretty good if you're into the electronica thing. what that has to do with an american lady who races bicycles I don't know.
