    At least she has the good sense to cloak that alluring neck. I only hope the ankles are properly covered as well, lest shopkeepers be distracted as she walks down the street. #americanapparel

    Oh, geez. They're almost dainty. I could see if they were like huge cow utters ready to slap you in the forehead. These are like junior-nips. Not really classy, classy, but in terms of obscenity from American Apparel, I was expecting much more...like nipples, socks, a puddle of milk and nothing else in the shot. #americanapparel

    Thousands of years ago Victoria's Secret showed nipples quite freely. They also showed pubic hair back when women had it.

    Women do have nipples after all and this is honest advertising. If you have nipples and you wear this garment, then your nipples will show.

    Why Barbie-ize us all? #americanapparel

    @Tart of Darkness: I actually agree with what you said but I really don't think American Apparel was trying to make a feminist statement. In fact, I don't think anyone at American Apparel know how to SPELL feminist. If the model's nipples were exposed it's probably because the sad folks at American Apparel got off on the 'naughtiness' of it all. #americanapparel

    I can't believe I'm defending AA, but a little naughtiness never hurt anybody. And neither did being turned on by it. If we weren't turned on by naughtiness, nobody would bother having sex and the species would have died out a long time ago. #americanapparel

    @topsy: Well, I agree they are not intending to make a feminist statement but I really don't have a problem with the lack of air-brushing. Back in the late 70s/early 80s sometimes lingerie models in newspaper ads had visible nipples. Why have we decided that feminist = prudish while at the same time feminist = promiscuity, too?

    I find today's sexuality confusing. We are supposed to faint and scream at the sight of a nipple in a catalog, but have sex freely as we choose with as many people as we like.

    And for men it's even more confusing. They are all supposed to be addicted to porn, masturbate furiously on an hourly basis while hoping to get laid and this all at the same time that they pretend not to notice any sexual features on the woman they are standing next to on a bus.

    And I'd like to say I can't believe I'm defending AA either even as I'm starting to wonder why I'm supposed to defame them. #americanapparel

    @Tart of Darkness: Thanks for the lecture on modern sexuality. Believe it or not I have no problems with nipples; I even have two of my own. What I do have a problem with is AA (who a lot of people are willing to go to the wall for) make a shitload of money out of appealing to the pimply adolescent in so many. 'Oooo look! Nipples! How edgy! How cutting edge.' Please. I prefer not to participate in Mr. Charney jerk-off fantasies, but feel free. The sight of barely-legal models (or those who just LOOK that way) flashing their pink bits for Dov's pleasure and profit makes me a bit queasy. But like I said, feel free.

    @naugahydeinplainsight: The second picture's a little strange, but then again I'm totally stumped about a more effective way to sell bow ties and suspenders to women. I think in this case just plain distracting from the product is the only reasonable choice. #americanapparel

    Biden was the most inscrutable choice, ever, for VP. Instead of "change" Obama brought out an old hack, who had trouble with both truth telling, even during the campaign, and with inserting his foot into his mouth. Oh, to know what kind of negotiation that was, to get him on the ticket---except, perhaps to allay terrified old white guys who feared a woman and a (half)black man on the ticket would bring on the apocalypse. #joebiden

    Joe Biden is everything thats wrong and fucked up with congress. This dope won his seat in the Senate when he was 29 and has never had another job until being VP. He has learned about as much about how the country works from his perch in DC as Palin learned about Russia from staring at it. He is walking proof we need term limits.

    And he doesn't drink. I don't trust people who don't drink, unless they've already been alcoholics. #joebiden

    Why is it that I feel compelled to defend Gawker's subject matter against the editors/writers at least once a day lately?

    Either this new crop of staff writers is utterly fucked, or the editorial direction has taken a nosedive, or both.

    Is there some negative correlation between the quality of stories and the quality of AJAX/CSS? #joebiden

    @Motoko Kusanagi: Oh yeah, I didn't mean to quibble. I agree that the site gets fancier all the time, but features seem to break often. I should have added before that it could well be my OS and browser causing headaches most readers don't experience. And in all fairness, I haven't been reading long enough to judge contemporary content against the past. #joebiden

    Not sure what point you're trying to make, Amrita... that you think Cheney's worldview makes some sense? That Cheney was initially popular, before everything he did brought his popularity rating to a low of 28%? I love it that Biden is willing to call a moron a moron. This is a ridiculous post. #joebiden

    I'm absolutely NOT a supporter of ANYTHING Dick says... but, Good Lawwd, Biden, Bin Laden will always BE a part of the issue. I'm sorry, I guess if you had the prez saying this I could understand... but, uh, Joe? Nope.

    That being said, why are we posting crap from Fox News anyway - I thought we weren't supposed to take this stuff seriously?
