1. "Underpants" posting about Toobin.

Sorry, but I found that amusing.

2. It is.

It is amusing. Hard to beat actually.

4. Maybe I'm weird, but unless he did it purpose, I don't see the big deal.

Personally I would have fired myself if I was in such a situation. I don't get some of the language being used about this. He's in therapy and counseling? Volunteering to help become a better person? That's language I would expect from a deviant who purposefully exposed himself on camera, not someone who made a mistake that made a bunch of people uncomfortable. I'm not saying his language proves he did it on purpose, but rather that society seems to be forcing him to do it. I suppose it could also be his way of coping with humiliation.

Maybe that's a bad take. I don't know.

6. Someone saw him:

The New York Times reported that according to Masha Gessen, one of the call participants, "he was seen lowering and raising his computer camera, exposing and touching his penis, and motioning an air kiss to someone other than his colleagues."

7. I don't see how it can work. Nobody can see him without the yucky mental image no matter

*what* he's talking about. Plus, his debaters will always have the incident up their sleeve, especially DERSHOWITZ. Or, since DERSCH has his own sordid history, who cares what the two of them say about anything?!1

Notice that I steered clear of several obvious puns.
