    Allow me to be the first person in this thread to act the scold and say I wish we didn't make things like this news.

    These are not public figures, this is harmless and it could have happened to any of us.

    This is so painfully banal--in part of course due to the short, neutral email text. But these people need to be fired and go live out their dull little fantasy.
    A matched pair of skanks. Blasts of porno thoughts with "How's your mother?" and "What's for lunch?"
    Yuck.

    And how old is Jake? Obviously toddler or less. Good luck, kid. You're going to need it. #thewaywelivenow

    Let's review the sins: 1) use of all caps; 2) multiple exclamation points; 3) emoticon; 4) bad sexual pun.

    23 letters in his message, and 4 cardinal email sins. That is an extraordinarily low ratio. I'm impressed/horrified. #thewaywelivenow

    Why was this published? It has no journalistic value and is a gross invasion of privacy for the two people concerned.

    For shame. #thewaywelivenow

    @registered: Privacy is for things that happen in private, not for things that are CC'd to thousands of people. If you violate your own privacy, you have no-one to blame but yourself. Or your adulterous bonk-puppet. #thewaywelivenow

    @bombquixote: Why, yes I can. It's not valuable. These are two non-celebs who have had their lives ruined by the idiot guy who CC'd everyone AND THE FOLKS WHO BROADCAST IT.

    There are kids (and spouses) involved. Can't you for a moment imagine the horror this non-noteable pair and their spouses and children have gone through?

    I'm ashamed of Gawker for posting this. I think it's a reflex; when they did that John Fitzgerald Pig expose a while ago, I participated. Afterwards, I felt like human shit, as though I had been a participant in Lord of the Flies. #thewaywelivenow

    @registered: First, I think our expectations might differ about what Gawker is or should be. I come here for smart social commentary, gossip, entertainment--joyful, sad, depraved and sundry. Sometimes Gawker surprises me with its journalism, but--let's be serious--journalistic value is not what Gawker sells.

    Second...Yes, there are kids and spouses involved. Yes, it's sad. And considering those were always the stakes, Homeslice should have been extra careful not to c.c. those emails. It wasn't just stupid and tragic. It was catastrophically stupid and tragic, which is exactly what makes it so novel. Do you think Letterman wouldn't joke about this? He would, and it would be funny. Gawker's not so bad.

    And third...I feel ya. No doubt this is shitty for their families. Public humiliation on top of everything else. I can't even imagine. We're a raving mob. We eat our own, we bathe in our own filth. But still...he c.c.'d it to the entire campus! That is fucking hilarious! I for one am glad I got to read this story. Thank you, Gawker, you slimy shit hole of a gossip rag you. #thewaywelivenow
