Today's communique from our new idiocracy: Because sex was invented for da Interwebs

It’s surprising that it’s taken this long for “Snapchat Sluts” (totally NSFW) to exist. But we all knew it was coming — the minute you introduce a new way for teens to send each other nudes, the website collecting those nudes is only so far behind. Snapchat was supposed to be the consequence-free iPhone sexting app everyone had always hoped for: you take your nudie pic, you specify a time limit (10 seconds or less), and you send it to your sext buddy, secure in the knowledge that it would be deleted from his or her phone when the time limit ran out. Sure, Snapchat’s CEO publicly claimed he didn’t think the app, currently among the iPhone’s most popular, would be used for sexting — “I just don’t know people who do that. It doesn’t seem that fun when you can have real sex,” he told TechCrunch — but we all knew the score. What else would you use an photo app with a built-in Mission: Impossible self-destruct timer for?
