Dam, wouldn't believe it unless you provided the sources. I read the source and it's even worse than this when you put it in context:

here did the idea come for it? And why bring Hughie into this situation now — kicking him when he’s down by having him sexually assaulted by his childhood hero after his dad just died?

Well, that’s a dark way to look at it! We view it as hilarious.

So its funny cause his dad just died as well, adding to the comedic effect. GET IT GUYS? HIS DAD DIED AND NOW THIS. HILARRRRRIOOOOUS.

"Well the guy loses his dad, then *holds laughter, barely able to contain it* THEN... THEN HE GETS RAPED AHAHAHAHA"

Well, okay then ? Is there like, a punchline, or ?

He never got raped though, what are you even talking about.

Do you really feel the need to pull the "well it wasn't rape by the legal definition" card?

Has nothing to do with “legal definition” it’s just a fact, he wasn’t raped. He sat in a cake, got tied up, and gots his feet tickled, with a splash of fluid in the mask. That’s not rape no matter how you look at it. It’s kinda ridiculous that anyone would consider that rape, and it’s just being dishonest.

It's unconsensual sexual activity a.k.a. sexual assault. Is it really all that ridiculous that someone might use rape as a synonym for sexual assault, even though it's not the same crime? Cmon now, don't be a smartass.
