Think of the saddest, most pathetic sexual nadir you ever reached. Did it involve purchasing virtual sex toys like a ”sex bed,” a digital bed with built-in sex position animations, for your Second Life avatar to use online? Or better yet, did it involve suing other virtual sex toy makers who are peddling knocked-off versions of your high-end online kink to Second Lifers? Well, then, at your worst, you still have light years more game than these folks. Pun intended. [MediaPost News]

Just what every girl dreams of: A new recently leaked book proposal by John Edwards’s former aide claims that the adulterous Edwards once calmed his piece-on-the-side/ babymama, Rielle Hunter, by promising her that after his wife finished up her bout with cancer and died, he would marry Hunter in a rooftop ceremony in New York with an appearance by none other than the Dave Matthews Band.

Speaking of romance, good news, all you lawyer boys out there: Gold digging ladies of leisure still want to date you! According to self-proclaimed “high-end matchmaker” Samantha Daniels, her lady clients have been broadening their scope lately regarding the types of guys they want to buy them be set up with. According to Daniels, whereas ladies “used to immediately say, set me up with someone in finance, they’re now going back to the traditional professions as well. They’re asking for lawyers and doctors and business owners — the type of guys their grandmothers used to tell them to look for.” [Fortune via CNN Money]

This 22-year-old Georgetown law student is NOT dating Rihanna. Really, he swears he’s not. Repeatedly. And with such flair. [Above the Law]

Oh, John Thain. You slay us. That remark you made—you know, the one where you said that, if you “had to do it over again,” you’d furnish your office “in Ikea,” instead of spending $1.2 million on choice pieces like a $35,000 toilet—is part of what makes you just so damn fun. A spokeswoman for Ikea, Mona Astra Liss, even offered to show the the former CEO of the exploded Merrill Lynch & Co. around his local IKEA anytime, offering to “show him a wealth of furniture choices for home and office” and to “feed [him] Swedish meatballs, too.” Wouldn’t hold your breath there, Mona.

And you thought the paralegal sitting outside your office had it in for you. Let’s just hope he doesn’t know Irby Walker, the South Carolina criminal defense attorney who’s been charged with solicitation of a felony for allegedly trying to hire a hit man to kill another attorney with whom he formerly shared a law office.

I just love people like you…
People with the only accomplishment in life, of writing about what OTHER people REALLY do. And, of course, making light of it, and ridiculing it.
Of course, you never contribute anything meaningful, you just speak nonsense, and try to sell things like “end panic attacks fast.”
Oh yes, clearly, your opinion has value……….to no one.
I kind of like the posts on this site. Now all I need is a woman who will sleep with me.
Noneya — right, because the kind of people who take the time to comment on blogs that people who comment on pop culture or whatever on those blogs are meaningless are f*ing geniuses — and contribute oh so much to society.
Get over yourself, loser. This site is a good time. Run off and go play with your Second LIfe toys now, ‘mkay?
Guano, stop associating with these loose women. I have 3 ladies waiting for you, so you need no longer look for women in the USA. They are non-virginal, and you must only marry virginal women.
