    True. The mannequin bit is hardly bad. Just don't shop there.

    But the thing is, Goofball ridiculed those criticising the thongs (rightly so, perhaps, though the degree of actual ridicule deserved might have differed) while at the same time suggesting that those who "oogle" AR-15s are somehow bad people since AR-15s are 'bad, evil things'.

    Carrying over frustration from the Florida self-defense law methinks.

    Personally, I think this is an idiotic news story. So they found a few people to complain about the displays at VS? Who cares? You can find people to complain about anything imagineable if you just look around. Is it newsworthy? No!

    Well, do you think the reporters are just going to sit on thier duffs and not do anything just because there's no real news? It'd be feast and famine for them. No, when there is no news, they make news.

    You can tell when its a slow news week when the newsmagazines have cover stories on real old history (like the cursades) or a fiction book (dan brown).
