The new defense against date-rape drugs. Ingenious or just plain dumb?
  • Fathers, Daughters, and Anonymous

    Anonymous, does the concept of "Off Topic" mean anything to you at all? The article that this particular thread refers to has no connection to underage children, fathers, or the Virginia Department of Health.

    It's wonderful that you have strong opinions about the way fathers are treated in today's society (which is not to say that I agree with you on all of them). But tossing them like water balloons into spaces in cyberspace where they have little or no relationship to the surrounding items, or the purported purpose of the space, might be seen by many as the act of a troll, a spammer, or a nutjob.

    It's not a question of your message, but rather your choice of venue. And simple etiquette. Are you taking out a moment to think before pressing that Send button?
