Comment: I opened the top 25, pressed page down, and to my shock and
disdain, there is a Lane Bryant advertisement with an indecently dressed
woman! There are tasteful ways of promoting product, and I encourage you
to screen material destined for your site more carefully.

I was going to refer a very large group of women, homeschooling mothers,
to debunk a myth, but I will not now that I discovered that advertisement

I sincerely hope you remedy the situation that allowed a inappropriate
image to be presented to young and mature eyes!

Comment: I would like to go to school in Spartanburg, SC, but I was
wondering if this is a racist area for blacks. How is the job market and
overall quality of life for blacks in Spartanburg, SC?

Yeah, get right on that! An innocent person might be exposed to a woman's shoulders, collarbone, and stomach! I am indignant that I have unwittingly been confronted with an image of a clothed woman!

It's great for blacks. Just stay away if you're a NFBSKin' Athenian, though!

(I remember being a somewhat sheltered high school senior in New England and getting a college brochure from Lynchburg. One of my friends saw it and said, "Really? Lynchburg? Do you think their main fraternity is Kappa Kappa Kappa?")

Young and mature?

But, but but
Her b-b-belly button is showing!

Seriously though, I hadn't seen that ad.
Very pretty model!

Possibly sub-literate for immature.

I think if there were more underwear ads like that in the Sports section of Snopes, I'd read them for a change. But that's just me.

My objection is that it says the bra is 1/2 off, but in the picture, it isn't.

How about some truth in advertising, eh?

Well actually, it doesn't even say 1/2 off. That's an I, not a 1.

Comment: I heard that the cave men in the Geico commercials actually look
as the appear in the commercials - that they have a rare disease or
genetic mutation. Also heard that they were the subject of many tabloid
stories when they were growing up. Is this rumor true?

Comment: To say that the death of Sinbad is a hoax is a mere
understatement. Actually why not call it what it is: A damn lie! You
people need to stop lying on the computer websites. Ain't nothin cute
about it. Really! Get a life! I pert near died myself hearing that
bullcrap. It was mean and evil and it was not right. The power of life
and death is in the tongue. Don't be trying to kill off Sinbad, you
fools! I mean can't you find something positive to communicate about?
Always negative and happy to be negative, don't that give you a clue
something is definitely wrong? Just pitiful. I am mad and upset!!!!!

I didn't know Sinbad had any fans that willing to argue for the PC-ness of that writeup.
