GDP: "ZOMG! Is this sexist! Fire them! No! Don't fire them! OMGWTF!"

Lounge: "Is Hillary buying the next round?"

5. I am not going to comment on it
but I bet I can predict some of the responses, and the people making them.

I will keep that too myself as well.

6. The difference between the Lounge and GDP...
...I would guess is at the very least a 10 year age difference and the accompanying sense of proportion.

Had I witnessed in person the tableau depicted in the OP, I'd probably have laughed along with everyone else, shook my head and said something like "Oh, those crazy kids." You see, that's something that happens when young people are around alcohol, cameras and cardboard cutouts. They just can't help it, man.

Posting it on a message board where you KNOW people who are offended by it are going to see it and give you shit for it? Hey, that's up to you.

But it ain't the end of the fuckin' world.

Proportion.

7. The only way that pic would not be sexist is if the photo blowup was of her hubby Bill?
