Taking off your shirt on the dance floor is pretty dumb (haven’t you seen As It Were?), but not exactly sketchy, so it’s pretty safe even if everyone knows you, like at your best friend’s birthday party. Going bottom-naked, however, is ill-advised unless you are at a concert out-of-state. The sketchy denominator of the Non-Sketchy ratio is just too high...

Even a dance floor make out, DFMO for repeat offenders, can be a bad move depending on the attractiveness of your partner (victim?). But who hasn’t taken advantage of the aura of anonymity when visiting another school?

...lunch last month, McCain ripped into Thad Cochran of Mississippi, the top GOP appropriator, who has long been McCain's archrival on earmarks. (As is his custom, Cochran remained stoic throughout the ordeal.) Just a month after the death of his friend Ted Kennedy, McCain took to the floor and railed against a $20 million earmark for a center for the study of the Senate in Kennedy's name at the University of Massachusetts. "I can't let my affection for Senator Kennedy affect my principles about earmarks on appropriation bills," he told TIME as he left the floor...
