riddler 0 #1 October 20, 2008 With all the dirt-flinging in the Presidential Race, not one person has pointed out that McCain has violated the Standard Creepiness Rule by marrying a woman 18 years younger than himself. The Standard Creepiness Rule states that No man shall date a woman younger than (his_age / 2 + 7). John and Cindy were married when he was 43 and she was 25. According to the rule, she needed to be at least 28.5 for him to meet the guidelines. And the entire time he was cheating on his first wife with her, that time also falls under the umbrella as well, since it applies to dating. However, in fairness, I should point out that the creepiness rule was not widespread in 1980, when they were married, so we should give McCain some slack, because he was grandfathered Trapped on the surface of a sphere.

SpeedRacer 1 #2 October 20, 2008 Actually I read that rule (age/2 + 7) in Autobiography of Malcolm X. Apparently among the Black Muslims, that was considered the formula for the ideal age for a man's bride.
