Oh, Gawker picked it up? Well, good--getting it out of niche/tech-geek circles may help.

I want to torture you. I used to love it, and it's been a long time. I mean, the last time I tortured someone, they didn't even have chainsaws.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
JHM sent me an invite, so I signed up under one of my personas, and now I'm half persona, half me. We'll see. It's not an email address I'd really miss, but they tossed "Spidra Webster"? Seriously? What's that about?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The judge obviously also thought this was insane. She was given probation and offered a new trial.
Good to know! Maybe I don't have to hate eeeeverybody.

When a Google+ account is dropped, does that drop the Gmail email associated with it as well?

So that is how people lose long term accounts? If you already have a gmail or google account and upgrade to Google+, you can end up having the whole thing dropped if your Google+ name does not meet (unspecified) Google+ standards?
