Great guns!  That's hot.

Who's tag line was that again?

Superman said it a lot.

She creeped me out a bit.

Doing a bit of research on single malt whiskeys and have disocvered that all the websites make you enter a date to prove you're of age. (as if you can't cheat). It's less restrictive to get on websites pushing double penetration sex than it is to get on a Balvenie site!

Well, to be honest, booze is probably worse for kids than porn. If porn was bad for kids, there isn't a boy alive in NA who wouldn't be damaged ... 

[Ed Anger]

You can thank COPA for that.

[Baron von Schtinkenbutt]

You can thank COPA for that.

Only in the sense that it scared more legitimate sites like alcohol and game producers into things like this, since it never took effect and is now practically, though not technically, dead.  Of course, it was really aimed at the porn sites Josephus mentioned, so the threat wasn't very successful.

When your kid is eight bring him over here and I'll show him some double penetration sex sites...and then we'll talk. 

EDIT: And...I'd say that there's no harm done in a kid looking at a scotch whiskey website.

I imagine the talk would go just as badly if I found you plying my 8 year old with single-malt. 

But yeah, the addition of an adult enabler changes the dynamic. If I caught an adult showing my kid porn, I'd assume he was a perv.

The bigger issue is, as is more likely, I caught the kid viewing porn on his lonesome. Here I can assure you that my reaction would be a lot different than my wife's ... as a guy I remember sneaking looks at porn as a kid myself. My wife is unlikely to have the same understanding, is all.

The kid drinking booze on his own would elicit a more censorous reaction, because it is truly a bigger danger.

That's the longest one I've ever seen and the first to be sentence!

Well yeah, obviously. I was to that extent taking the piss. 

[Josephus]

Yeah, I know.

Next two books will be shit, George RR Martin says.
