  3. Well, then it's a good idea he had the butt plug to keep him awake.

  6. "Also not specified was the make and model of the plug and an explanation of how it ended up in his bottom."

    ??? How do they THINK it "ended up" in his bottom?

  8. From my perspective:

    Most "normal" folks are hammered at about .12.

    Most of the DUIs that are driving crazy and crashing into stuff are in the .15 to .20 range.

    We have to get arrestees medically cleared at the ER if they're over .30 or the jail won't take them.

    The hard-core drinkers are easily walking and talking at .25 to .30.

    I've had DUIs as high as .44. He was driving down the median, knocking over traffic signs.

    I've dealt with super-hard-cores as high as .55, and I've heard of considerably higher.

    As with many things in life, experience is everything.

  9. I'm at a loss to understand how using a butt plug is somehow worse than driving drunk.

    Seriously?

    If you're trying to say that soiling the cop car and otherwise making it an unpleasant experience for the police made a bad situation even worse, sure. But the focus of the article and many of the comments here is on the sex toy, which strikes me as juvenile.

    In 2009, over 10,000 people in the US were killed by drunk drivers. How many people were killed with a sex toy?

  10. Ok, so now I find myself googling
    How many people were killed by a sex toy ?

    @anon 8:47---relax , this blog frequently tries to find the humor in the foibles of humanity. It is not belittling the tragedy of drunk driving death.

  13. I love how they're all irritated that there weren't more specifics about the butt plug available! I'm guessing the cop fishing it out of his car wasn't about to whip out a measuring tape and gather some specs! lol
