Holy shit, my sides.
Seriously? Your response to sexual assault is "that's hilarious"?
I think I'm going to instead believe that you just got back from boxing, and quoted that by accident.
You're responding to the guy with a stereotypical blackface profile picture. Do you really think he's taking the story seriously?
As for me, that part of the story is pretty damn funny, though the conclusion is, unfortunately, not so funny.
I do feel as though there's a bit of a double-standard, here, though. If a drunk woman grabbed a guy's hand and shoved it into her crotch or boobs, he'd get the same response from the security guard but would almost certainly not get a news story or support from Notch himself, even if he was just as hurt.
I knew it was too much to hope that no one pulled the Double Standard card.
OT: Notch is generally a nice dude so I'm not surprised he's this mad. I would to, mainly because he doesn't want to be known as someone who ignores Sexual Assault incidents at
his parties. Incidents like that generally make the Party Throwers really pissed because it happened under their watch.

Sexual assault is not funny, not in the slightest. If you find it as such, you either have a very very dark sense or you're a mysoginist (if you only view it as funny if the woman is the recipient).
He didn't think Sexual Assault was funny man. He did however find that one specific line really funny. That little line actually is really, really funny. Though the fact that it actually happened is not really funny.
Maybe I was desensitized to this stuff as a kid, but other than the slight hint towards possible rape (in a public place full of people? Not likely, and if so it's NOT getting far) this is NOTHING. That line was pretty funny, and there is humor to be found in this situation. The fact that most people here are responding with "OMG NO NOTHING ABOUT THIS CAN BE FUNNY AT ALL, EVER" is simply proving that the world has gone insane.
ALERT: HUMANS HAVE REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS. You should all know this. Of course this guy is about as far out of the social norm as you can get, but what real harm does an act like this do? It's creepy. But it's one of those things that deserves nothing more than shrugging off and coming to laugh about it. The guy may be dangerous and should be pursued to the extent of the law to make sure he's not a danger to others, sure, but other than some rather unsettling stuff, nothing happened here. It's like having an insane man yell at you. OH NOOOO THE CRAZY HOBO ON THE TRAIN SAID I DON'T KNOW NOTHIN ABOUT TRAINS THE WORLD IS NOW ENDING T_T
Yeah, nobody wants to see random people's genitalia... normally. Nudists probably wouldn't care. But don't for a SECOND pretend that a either gender's naked body isn't something you're not fairly familiar with already. Stop kidding yourselves, people.
I get that this is really creepy in the moment and all but if you can't shrug this off you need to toughen up a bit. And don't anyone dare respond to me saying I haven't been through this kind of thing and I don't know what I'm talking about. Trust me, I've been through much worse. I don't let it bother me.
Seriously, though. I just spent 3 hours today slaughtering hundreds of people, innocent and otherwise, in a video game. This is an accepted norm, but god forbid you show a part of your body. (in such a medium or worse, for real) TRY to forget for a second what you've had pounded into you since birth and realize how insane that sounds.
(in case anyone missed that sentence in the middle somewhere, I think this guy might be dangerous and should be pursued. Not to be publicly flogged or sentenced to painful torture and/or death or something as a form of revenge for the terrible deed he's done, but to get fixed. It's pretty obvious no matter where he came from that what he was doing was against societal/cultural norms. There's probably something wrong with him and he needs psychiatric attention. I'm just saying that the outrage over this incident... well, is kind of understandable... but the people saying we can't laugh about it can just go touch a dick, man.)
