Does anyone know if the Don't Stay a Virgin campaign for net neutrality has actually gotten anybody laid? Or is it a joke?

From what I can ascertain, browsing their godawful forums: no this hasn't, and won't, get anybody laid.

I can't find the exact explanation but basically all of the dozens of stories from movielol.org were hoaxes, including the multiple promises of sex.

Oh god, not her again...

Sigh, as explained above, this, like much of the stuff they've done is basically a big attention grabbing, controversy raising joke.

Their group first came to my attention in the form of athene via a more you-tube meme obsessed friend (sorry for all the annoying links in the video, they seem to have gone back and relinked their stuff). Initially it was just about an arrogant, narcissistic WoW player with an oft abused and submissive (not to mention, hot!) girlfriend. The methods they used to get more views were pretty underhanded too (read the titles on all their videos. Most of the videos have a sexy shot of the girl in the middle so that becomes the thumbnail people see, etc.). They actually had a some funny stuff, but as their popularity grew, so did their preachiness. It became clear that the athene my friend was obsessed with was simply a vehicle for them to gain popularity worldwide.

After a certain point, neither my friend nor I just couldn't stand them anymore and simply stopped paying attention to them. It's great they are promoting net neutrality, but fuck, dont bother getting tickets to Belgium - Tanya won't do you.
