Virgins + Hormones + PennApps = Nothing Good, Ever

As the self-proclaimed “social ivy,” Penn is obviously no stranger to sex. As the host of one of the largest intercollegiate hackathons in the world, Penn is also no stranger to computer programming. Combine the two, though, and what you get is a whole world of skeeviness.

Last weekend, a University of Michigan sophomore convened on our campus with hundreds of the nation’s brightest to design the next big app. His product? A private social network called “Playbook” that lets people “communicate what they wouldn’t over Facebook.” In other words, it’s Rate My Professor for bros who like to kiss and tell.

The creepy techie admitted he's--gasp!--a virgin. To make things worse, his mother is upset about the app. Go back to Ann Arbor!
