High Schooler Posts Nude Pic of His Girlfriend, Gets Arrested

The latter. Expressing what we always were.

Guys, can we please keep rubber-necking-type stories to a minimum? I read TC for thoughtful writing, not to keep up to date on what some local station covered this week. I'd be all for some kind of analysis of sexting and its implications and blah blah blah, but this whole “hey, did you hear about that horny teenager who did that stupid thing?” just comes across as trite.

for me it seems that technology makes things easier in every aspect even in blackmail. such behaviors have been there it's just that new technology allows them to become what lack of it hendered them to be. at the same time because of this new technology it is easier to point out such deviant behavior…

The moral of the story is not that sexting and being stupid on facebook will get you in trouble.
The moral is that trying to force someone to have sex with you by blackmailing them will get you jailed. There is nothing new about it: rape has been a punishable crime for quite a lot of time.

I’m over the Thought Catalog DISQUS participants complaining about the content on TC having gone “down hill”~ Jesus Christ. Why don’t *you* catalog your thoughts since they’re so much more illuminating that what we’re reading?

Shame that I had to bring this up here as I actually liked the question you posed, Dan. But it’s clear that in -most- pieces, the complainers have skimmed a post. After all, this piece seems to beg for discussion on morality, not how TC has “become the next gossip blog.” We’re part of TC too, complainers. We need to develop the discussion as well. We can’t just let the writers do all the work. If the majority of us are snappish readers.. than we are no different than a gossip blog.

Dan I hate to say this but you need to lay off the news. It seems like that's all you write about these days.

EDIT: After further research, it is ALL you write about these days. What gives?

All this technology is giving dumb kids more and more self-destructive ways to act on their dumbness. Someone needs to write an article about this generation behind us who is growing up with Facebook and iphones.
