Quinnipac University to Letterman: No sex with our interns.

This may be a little prudish (or a lot) but in lieu of David Letterman and that whole “sex with my interns” thing, one university has decided to make sure…well, I’m not sure exactly what they’re trying to do. We go to PEOPLE for the story,

David Letterman’s days of frolicking with interns are over – at least as far as one Connecticut university is concerned.

Quinnipiac University says it will tell staff in charge of placing interns to be extra careful when sending students to the studio to work for Letterman, 62, who is currently at the center of a blackmail scandal over his alleged affair with one of his former interns.

“Due to recent circumstances we will have a discussion with those in charge of placing our interns at the David Letterman show in the future,” the Hamden, Conn., school tells TMZ. “We will diligently oversee this internship program to ensure that our interns are out of harm’s way.”

What an awesome waste of time. Quinnipac is going to “have a discussion” with the overseers to choose interns more carefully. Unless every intern you send is a male, there really isn’t anything you can do to stop a consensual relationship between Letterman and one of your, over the age of 18, interns. Again, “out of harm’s way”? I don’t remember Letterman trying to extort money from the intern; what harm did he do to anybody in this situation (other than his wife)?

Quinnipac is putting the kabosh on David Letterman, yet, if they’re like every other college campus in America, they’re dealing with instances of underage drinking, violence, sex, sometimes rape…but don’t worry, they’re putting a stop to any consensual relationships between an intern and a talk show host (maybe the age difference is just too much to handle).

Seriously…what are you going to do? Give everybody flashlights and rape whistles? They’re acting like Letterman sits behind that desk with no pants on or something…just waiting for that commercial break when he can black out the audience…and the noise…and just focus…

Come on man. You can’t stop David Letterman’s nether regions like that…you can only hope to contain them.

They look so adorable…until you realize they can rip your face off.

The clip is called Minnesota LB gets “caught in a sensitive area”. But I will now forever know it as, the video where “that mother****** hit my p****” Awesome.

This is not a joke. Conservatives are rewriting the Bible to make it line up with Republican talking points and to remove all traces of “liberal bias.” For example: “Excluding the later-inserted liberal passages that are not authentic, such as the adulteress story.”

David Letterman uses his show again for more personal business– this time for apologies to his wife and staff. Just stick to the jokes and do a 60 Minutes interview already.
