    I don't know? Sexual harassment for sure, but I don't know about assault.

    Oh well, I will just line my room with condoms them.

    You should make an outfit entirely out of condoms.

    I should. My wedding dress should be made of condoms...

    It will raise eyebrows when you go missing for a half-hour at random moments during the evening, and always come back with a noticeably thinner dress.

    I'm already going to raise eyebrows with my reception. I want it to be a paintball fight. I figured it'd help release some tension and allow me to shoot whoever tries to fuck up the wedding in a safe way.

    So... you don't have any elderly relatives or nor any guests with young children?

    Re: That quiz.

    I live and have lived in a various one bedroom apartments for the last 5 years - can I assume I'm, at best, middle-middle-class? I'll admit to having an upbringing that spanned from lower-middle-class to upper-middle-class as my parents gradually became bigger earners.
    It's American-centric, though. Plus, you're an ethnic, which is going to skew things even more.

    Also, PUUUUUUPPPPPYYYYY! AWWWWWWWWWWW!!

    I'm barely ethnic. :P

    In fact when you mentioned that I was confused briefly as to what you were referring to.

    But yes, I'd be identified as a reasonably successful native, true!

    I think it means that you're reasonably in-touch with Real America.

    I get that the guy is probably building to a conclusion that liberal elites are out-of-touch with real, red-blooded americans. But there's still a question worth considering - if the class of policy-makers is increasingly drawn from an ever-more-exclusive and insular subculture (not taking this as a given, by the way), should we be worried about systemic errors in governance derived from straight-up cultural ignorance?

    I don't know that he's building to a conclusion about liberal elites, but I haven't read the book. I really do think it's a good question worth considering. He says in the blurb I read that it's bad for the general population to have political ignorance because it impacts our ability to make good choices for leadership, and it's bad for the political class to have cultural ignorance because it leads them to make bad leadership decisions.

    I scored a 31 on that quiz, which puts me as a: A second- generation (or more) upper-middle-class person who hasmade a point of getting out a lot.

    I got a lot of my points from working at starbucks for a couple years, especially while bleeding every time I worked for over a month. (Covered the work that makes you sore and wearing a uniform after school).

    LIBERALISM

    When I first started having sex, I got a bunch of free condoms from a clinic.

    They were too small.

    This was my experience.

    I guess I should be surprised though. I would come visit from Eastern Washington, the land of real men. I should expect they'd have condoms to fit Western Washington's girly men.

    Busses.

    Movie theaters.

    Outside of strip clubs.

    I can't think of a patent as physical property. The spirit of patents is to reward their inventors.

    Vacation/wedding, so they can't very well leave their kids at home for the week.

    I mean, they totally could, but I wouldn't ask them to. Plus I like the kids!
