77 is the colloquial term for a ILX board that isn't visible to the general public but does a very good job of being exactly like ILE only with more emoness

OK I am going to comment on this from a cultural perspective, based on my own experience. I am from Mexico where, as in most Latin America, people touch each other all the time. It has nothing to do -at least on a conscious level- with sexuality. It is just a way social bonding I guess. I was honestly a bit shocking, after coming to Canada (where I've lived for the past six years) people hardly hug or touch each other at all. Even among close friends. I must say that during my first long harsh winter (while I wasn't seeing anyone) I could have done with a little more physical contact.

The article itself admits that the numbers don't back this up. How do they feel comfortable reporting this?

heffernan does not report, she babbles nonsense about stuff she's heard from her friends and family.

yeah doesn't she have her own personal fact checker on staff? amazing she's still employed
― Mr. Que, Monday, 31 August 2009 19:51 (fourteen years ago) link
She obviously wants it to be true.

huh, i had always figured her for being a good bit older than 40. i guess she's just dumb.

One person shut down her account because she disliked how nosy it made her. Another thought the scene had turned desperate. A third feared stalkers. A fourth believed his privacy was compromised. A fifth disappeared without a word.
The exodus is not evident from the site’s overall numbers.

Que is thinking of Alessandra Stanley, isn't he?
I don't know if this qualifies as bogus-trend "reporting" cause it was in Heffernan's column in the magazine, which is very much not "reported."

Yes. Both have written about TV for the Times.

I think it must be the name. I first read her in Slate, so she didn't seem terribly old.

CORRECTION
A post on Monday afternoon incorrectly named Virginia Heffernan as having her own personal fact checker on the New York Times. It is Alessandra Stanley who was the fact-checker, not Heffernan.
