Dear Abby promotes threesome

"He was night putting. Just putting at night......with the 15-year-old daughter of the dean. And her lesbian friend."

 

She could have added that they all could enjoy an orgy of food and drink at the prom.

 

Because that is exactly what many people think of when they hear it or read it. That's how language works. You may not like the meaning people take from a given word, but that doesn't change the fact that they will take it that way.

 

It could bring new meaning to "hole in one."

 

Every single time, he shoots in the rough

 

Dear Penthouse. Umm, I mean Abby,

I never thought this would happen to me...

 

Dan Savage, who purchased the original Dear Abby's desk at auction and writes his Savage Love columns on it for inspiration, approves.

 

As Bill Clinton once said during a break in the Paula Jones deposition... 'Eatin' aint cheatin!!'

 

Threesome has been co-opted, as gay has been for a 70 or so years. Abby might have used "trio" as a better choice

 

Serious reply time: I think the context makes it fairly plain that the threesome wouldn't be sexual. Unless she intended to advise them to have a menage a trois on the dance floor. Or the prom band is really a collection of porno soundtracks.

 

That's terrible advice by Abby. She should have said that they needed to invite a fourth to videotape the evening.

 

I think a prom threesome is one hell of an idea.
