It was not a date, it was a transaction.

Eww. After getting her into the light, he may have wanted to renegotiate the agreed upon price.

I’m disgusted about the loss of the Warhols.

Warhol was a freak show and had a ton of crap he called “art”, but he was also one of the best pop artists to have lived.

Hopefully, this was some of the dreck.

As an aside, Warhol got his start designing consumer good packaging, many of which is iconic today. If you look around at things (e.g., a Coke bottle — or even a Cambell’s soup can) you have on your shelf, you immediately know what it is at a distance. This type of branding was, in no small part, due to the cleverness of Warhol.

“Buzbee told police Layman was too intoxicated, so he called her an Uber...”

Fightin’ words.

“he called her an Uber...”

That’s what set her off. After all, who wants to be called an Uber?

Oh, guilty.

This is one of those situations which requires duct tape and/or a straight jacket.

She wasn’t a date....he was a “john”.

Had he allowed her to stick around, she would have called the cops in the morning complaining about domestic violence. He would have been in jail and she would be living in her new house, while he has a restraining order placed on him and could not return to his home as long as she was there.

I have seen this twice with friends of late who have had “tinder” dates. The Domestic Violence charge and resulting protective order allows her to remain in his residence until she can effectively clean him out.

You could NOT be more wrong if you tried extra hard!

The iconic Coke bottle is over 100 years old and the Campbell soup can label is about as old!

What Andy did, is use both, but especially Campbell's Soup can, in still life paintings that were really just advertizing looking mock-up. But these were hailed as "great" paintings ( they weren't! ) and thus began the "POP ART" craze.

Warhol started his career as a shoe illustrator.

I said almost this exact same thing when this story was reported, He would be facing Date Rape charges right now and probably lose everything in the Civil Suit she/it would have filed.

The instant you allow someone to Sleep Over in your Home, you are Granting them “tenant rights”. If they refuse to leave, you have to go through the courts and Evict Them!!

I know someone that went through this

For second date she burns down his house....

Talk about dates from hell. Part of the problem could be traced to attempts to score on the first date, hence the drunkenness in a mistaken notion that a drunk girl is easier to talk into “consent” than one that is relatively sober.

Some 95% of the personal woe in this world is self-induced.
