Whole New Meaning to the Term "Rent Boy"

Sometimes I get trackback spam from organizations that seem so preposterous you can't tell if they're real or a scam. Such is the case with RentMySon.com, who trackback spammed me earlier this morning.

Some days you've just got to love the internet. This has got to be a parody. Either that, or it's poor marketing. Either way, it's spam.

And here I am giving them Googlejuice. What am I thinking?

What an alarmingly odd site. As someone who has a teenage boy hanging around the house, tho, I can see the temptation to ship him off in the company of other trusted adults. A lot. But I am not sure I can see why anyone in their right minds would want to rent a son if they didn't have one. Very odd. And creepy - esp the headshot of the boy with the joint.
I believe he said in his ad that it was a still from an anti-drug commercial he was in.
Wierd concept, i mean do people seriously rent their children? That's crazy to think that a corporation is making it off greedy parents and kids who must have serious balls.
