Hey you got an STD!
So I was looking for an article related to health care ethics on CNN.com and came across an article about InSpot.org. So InSpot is this site that allows you to send e-cards to past sexual partners telling them that you have an STD. Here's an example: "You're too hot to be out of action. I got diagnosed with an STD since we played. You might want to get checked too." Who the fuck is going to send some bullshit like that? "Hey Cindy, I know I haven't talked to you in the two years since we last fucked and randomly still have your email address, but just wanted you to know that I have the hiv and you might want to get checked out before you die. Have a good one."
What kind of fucked up asshole is going to send that message in an e-card? An E-CARD!?! "I'm such a piece of shit that I can't even call you on the phone to tell you that I might have given you the clap. Instead, I'm going to tell you in the least sensitive way possible, through a hipster medium that old people and teens have caught on to like wildfire, but no self-respecting person would actually use to contact another person, let alone tell them they have an STD."
Am I the only person that thinks this is the worst idea ever?
