What’s your most controversial opinion?

Shall I add “kill joy” to my title here? Killing the joy of joking about consent?
Maybe it's easy to make such judgements from where you sit. Maybe you job never had you defending someone charged with rape. [Underage content removed per forum guidelines] I did that job for over 20 years, defending people who couldn't afford an attorney and that no one else wanted to defend. If I couldn't make occasional inappropriate jokes, I would have lost my mind. Its a fucked up world and everyone has to find their way of dealing with it.
When I had a crazy-assed guy charged with indecent exposure and a bunch of related offenses because he was caught fucking an abandoned car, I got the prosecutor's diet coke to come out her nose when I told her I had a stone cold winner --- the car consented and their was no way to prove it didn't. So, yeah, in some cases you can joke about consent. Watch the show Hacks some time. There is a great Harvey Weinstein joke in one of the early episodes of season 1.

<apology to everyone else for the libido kill>

I know I said this before but now I'm done on this. Resume your place on the soap box.

When too much is too much.


Ran into a clerk a a store today. Probably mid 50s, not sure. Must had have a full cake of suntan tinted face stuff on. You could almost see it caking off. Bright red lipstick .... one line just at the outline. Not the full lips. Almost looked like it was tattooed.

Wasn't bad looking otherwise, just trying way too hard.

I feel that way about some makeup applications. (For the record, I am not against makeup)

I think it is important to view the person making the joke on other things that they say and do. Lit is very quick to judge on one post and when individual posts are judged in this way, a person can so easily be misunderstood and/or misinterpreted.

Bogey has some very funny jokes and maybe sometimes they are viewed as inappropriate but take a look at what he posts on serious issues. Take everything into context as a whole. You can’t be selective and choose parts of a person to decide who they are.

and yet this happens all the time to Litsters everywhere....

People perhaps need to slow down and ask questions rather than do knee jerk reactions

Edit...my internet is fucking with me, messing up my posts

At least you are getting some action 😁
 
I thought it was a settled fact that @Mrtenant has an adorable starfish and he will provide pics to prove. 🤣🤣🤣
Cassie....didn't daddy ever tell you not to play with fire?!

You may or may not know this, but where I come from...you put a man on the spot like that? It is damn near 100% likely that the next words you hear are....

"Hold ma beer.....
....check this out...."

Then all hell breaks loose!

I expect everyone to share their's now!

Edit....fixed
