LINE OF THE DAY, part XXI

      What Would Tyler Durden Do posted this quick article today about parents being upset that (former?) porn star Sasha Grey reading to a group of elementary school students in Compton for a Read Across America campaign.

      While this upset by the parents annoys  me because I'm not a fan of scarlet-lettering people with their past life choices, especially when what they did then is not relevant to what they're doing now. I mean, if she were demonstrating fellatio techniques on a dildo to elementary school kids, aside from the fact that that would actually be illegal, I would fully understand the parents being upset. But as part of a program to encourage reading? Shut the fuck up! But I liked how the website's author described it better:

Those parents are idiots. Why shouldn’t a porn star read to kids? THAT MAKES READING SEEM COOL! If some hot girl who swallows had come to my school and told me she liked reading I can pretty much promise my spelling and punctuation wouldn’t be as shitty as they are today.

      Hard to argue with that :-)
