1. As much as Ken Lay is a total POS
Nobody deserves that. However, I wouldn't mind seeing him terrified of his prisonmates.

3. Just put him to work.
I suggest that he start with toilet cleaning. If he does a really good job, perhaps he can graduate to floor mopping. :evilgrin:

4. Can we please move past the notion
that male rape is funny?

5. Anything can be joked about.
Anything - as Office Space proved often.

To suggest otherwise means you may be a quart low on sense of humor. Time for a check-up.

7. nah
I have a pretty good sense of humor. But male prison-rape is ALWAYS presented as a joke, and it's a serious issue that deserves more than snickers.

Go to GD and make some jokes about females getting raped. Then tell 'em they don't have a sense of humor when they hand you your ass.

15. but the thing is
he and his company metaphorically raped many, and sometimes it is hard not to be a little titillated by the idea of payback.

16. I've noticed
that whenever somebody points out that there may be another way to think of an issue, the response from people who've been jerks is to "lighten up".

I am light. I'm funny. I laugh all the time. You've probably seen some funny posts of mine here.

But....

I see nothing wrong with pointing out that the standard joke about male rape is worth a little deeper attention. The idea that male rape is funny is outdated. Why not consider that for a split second before turning it around as MY problem?

11. Ken Lay screwed us

and as much as we'd like to see justice, i.e., every dime returned, we'll probably have to settle for revenge.

17. Then again, he may never see a cell.
He'll end up being part of minibrain's last minute pardons before he leaves in January.
