A biker walks into a yuppie bar and shouts, “All lawyers are assholes!” He looks around, obviously hoping for a challenge. Finally a guy comes up to him, taps him on the shoulder, and says, “Take that back.” The biker says, “Why? Are you a lawyer?” “No, I’m an asshole.”

Q: submitted by Farah

When is it actually considered inappropriate to sleep with someone that your friend is/has been sleeping with?

A:
I thought for a long time that I had the simple answer to this question, but according to a few other people I was wrong. I've been a long time trying to get over something that seemed like no big deal at the time, but to me, is a big deal, and the more people try to play it down, it gets to me more! I'll try to make this story short. . . I met this girl one day through a friend, we started hanging out, talking, getting along, one night a few months down the road, we had sex, and continued to have sex with no committment, I didn't want her for a gf and I knew she felt the same way, in fact, i figured she was sleeping with other people, we just never talked about it, so I never worried about it. We got into this huge stupid fight and didn't talk for almost a year, then last summer we hooked up again. Had sex a few more times over the summer, then one night she was over and very casually was like "oh - did (we'll call her jack!) jack tell you we had sex" - then realized I was suprised, said she was joking and abruptly left. I didn't think about it again until jack called me one night and said that he wanted to tell me that he and (we'll call him Jenny!) Jenny had had sex, a few times over the course of the summer, and that he felt like he should tell me since jenny told him she already had. At first I had the mind set that it didn't matter, she definately wasn't my gf, what difference did it make? And suddenly one day it did matter, he was my boy, and even though it was all just "casual" - it suddenly wasn't right to me that he was so ok with having sex with her at the same time that I was. Maybe I'm crazy, a few people agree with me, some are like "it's just sex, what difference does it make" - So I think this situation is differnt for everyone. Let me know what you fellow sublimers think and ill post the results in the mail room.
