Between this and seeing that squid with human-like teeth on BoingBoing, I really gotta stop eating while reading the Internet.

Dan,
Your son must be proud.
Be sure to send this to the NYT Op-Ed editor.

Dan Savage, I love you. Can you teach me to write so well?

Uh ... "Santorum-streaked condom" is a helluva lot more stomach-churning than "dirty condom".

I thought the agreed-upon definition of Santorum was: "A frothy mix of semen and fecal-matter". So, since Phillips clearly describes Craig as having used a condom, there shouldn't have been any mixture of the two substances, and thus his description would be accurate.

Or, was that "a frothy mix of LUBE and fecal-matter"?

In which case, um - nevermind.

Pfft. A bi-weekly column? What a pussy.

Real men write a weekly column, drink scotch, and fuck other men.

I think that when the term "santorum" was first introduced, it meant a combination of lube, semen, and fecal matter. But even if it's only two out of three, it's still disgusting enough to merit a euphemism.

Whatever the hell it is, I can think of more than a few Senators I'd love to drown in it.

Way more important than these semantic trivialities - why haven't I seen this story picked up by a major news source yet? And wouldn't you think that this little tale would get the guys who wanted him gone to now RAILROAD his ass outta Dodge?

I prefer the original version. It is blunter, more offensive, and consequently more effective for its purpose, which is to leave nothing to the imagination. And anyway, what is so awful about the word "shit" anyway? You fight for the freedom of speech to say "shit" and then you don't because its in bad taste? Weird.

He's just pimping his word. It's Dan Savage- he LOVES putting disgusting images into people's heads.
