Poor Virginal Ben Tribbett.
We've all heard about the studies of babies. Lack of human contact makes them collicky, reduces their IQ, stunts their growth, and generally makes them miserable human beings.
Ben Tribbett is Virginia's own petrie dish and proof that the same lack of human contact (no, Ben, your own little hand doesn't count) causes the same results in young adults.
Ben is a nasty little man. He is mean, small minded, carries grudges, is oversensitive, and just generally unlovable. He also rocks an outsize ego. He believes that his blogging runs the universe. It carries Senate races. His analysis wins and loses political races. If you ask him, his love/lust/obsession with Leslie Byrne will catapult her to the heights of Virginia politics. His irrational feud with a Virginia Delegate will bring that Delegate down. It shouldn't surprise anyone that he is Virginal.
But friends, fellow Virginians, Nevadans (he flees to your state when the going gets rough - sorry about that), we must get Ben laid.
Think of it as a continuation of the experiment. Will fleeting human contact bring to the surface what ever isn't small and nasty in Ben? Is there anything in Ben that isn't small and nasty?
If you know someone who will sleep with Ben in service the greater good, please post a comment here or send an email to
virginalben@gmail.com. We've already had several submissions.
If you don't know someone who will sleep with Ben, post a comment anyway. Post pictures of Ben, things you heard about him, things you heard him say. Even if you don't know anything, make something up. He loves that. Just look at his blog.
