UPFRONT A CMSD OCCUPATIONAL therapist submitted her resignation the day after photos surfaced and allegations followed that she participated in the Jan. 6 riots in D.C., including entering the Capitol and posing for photos on the floor of Congress. The district confirmed Christine Priola’s resignation to Scene and shared her resignation letter, which said she was leaving her position because she refused to take a COVID-19 vaccine, because she doesn’t agree with how her union dues were used, and because, “I will be switching paths to expose the global evil of human trafficking and pedophilia, including in our government and children’s services agencies.” In a brief statement, a Cleveland schools spokesperson said: “Questions raised today about a former CMSD employee’s alleged involvement in the riots at the U.S. Capitol this week have also raised questions about the District’s position on such behaviors. While CMSD deeply believes in the right of any individual to peacefully protest, as many did on the Capitol plaza on Wednesday afternoon, the District deeply condemns the actions of those involved in the riots inside the Capitol and on the Capitol grounds. The right of peaceful protest, as protected by the first amendment, is a foundation of our democracy. The forcible takeover and willful destruction of our government is not.” The Cleveland Teachers Union acknowledged the reports in a statement and condemned the violence. “Rioters who broke the law should be held fully accountable,” the statement read. “Our national affiliate has called for the immediate removal of President Trump for instigating this assault on our country. “We are aware of reports of a Cleveland educator who engaged in rioting in the Capitol. We take these allegations very seriously and if true, they must be held accountable. While we support the right to peaceful protest, what happened inside the Capitol on Wednesday was not a protest, it was an insurrection. It is the exact

Bibb! Formally Launches Cleveland Mayoral Campaign Citing an urgent need for a new generation of leaders at City Hall, 33-year-old nonprofit executive Justin Bibb formally launched his 2021 Cleveland Mayoral campaign Tuesday afternoon. “From the streets to the boardroom, I’ll never stop fighting for Cleveland,” Bibb said in his announcement materials. “I love this city and I believe we have the potential to become a model of revival and possibility. We have all the right assets to revitalize our city and we are uniquely positioned to lead America’s economic recovery.” Bibb was born and raised in Cleveland’s Mt. Pleasant

neighborhood and holds graduate degrees in law and business from Case Western Reserve University. He has been a corporate and nonprofit professional for at least the past decade, working for both Gallup and KeyBank. He now manages a portfolio of “cutting-edge” projects for the Tacoma, Washingtonbased nonprofit Urbanova, which attempts to find smart city solutions in midsize cities nationwide. He recently founded the nonprofit Cleveland Can’t Wait, which focuses on building opportunities in underserved neighborhoods. With a professional background “at the intersection of government, business and the nonprofit sector,” Bibb is billing himself as a “bold, dynamic and visionary leader” who can bring both his professional and lived experiences to bear on city government. He says he will deploy new strategies and technologies “to make neighborhoods safer, communities healthier and [the] economy stronger.”

In a virtual launch Tuesday, he outlined a number of key campaign issues including public safety, (more officers on the streets, better enforcement of Consent Decree, new policing models); education (accelerating the pace of change at CMSD by investing in teachers and modernizing curricula); and economic development, (equitable economic policies centered on new jobs and higher wages). He highlighted what he called a “back to basics” agenda for City Hall, saying that he wanted to deliver services more efficiently and make conducting business with the city easier. He said he wants to elevate residents’ voices, making “democracy building” more than an election-year exercise. Throughout his career, Bibb said he’d had one primary focus: bringing people together. And he said as Mayor he would work to convene Clevelanders “from the grassroots to the grass tops.” “The next mayor must be unifier

in chief, with the energy and insight to do things differently,” he said. Bibb will be among several highprofile mayoral candidates in 2021. And despite his lack of experience in elected office, he has already raised significant funds which makes him one of the race’s early heavy hitters. Scene reported last month that only three months after forming an exploratory committee, Bibb had raised more than $180,000 from local and non-local contributors. Bibb clearly has the resources to produce professional campaign materials. And he also has a wellregarded political operative at his side. Ryan Puente, who recently stepped down as the Executive Director of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party, where he was widely respected for his quiet, organized leadership, will manage Bibb’s campaign. -Sam Allard

CLASH Leader Rebecca Maurer Launches Campaign for Cleveland City Council Cleveland attorney Rebecca Maurer has been hankering to make public comments at City Council meetings for years. In 2017, when former councilman Jeff Johnson was trying to get a lead safe ordinance off the ground, (ultimately to no avail), she wanted to speak on its behalf, to tell a story of her own street in Slavic Village which made the lead issue more urgent and personal for her. In 2019, she wanted to offer comment on the same topic, this time as a leader with Cleveland Lead Advocates for Safe Housing (CLASH), whose work forced the city to revive and strengthen Johnson’s 2017 bill. In early 2020, she watched in dismay as local minister George Hrbek had to noisily interrupt a council meeting to speak in support of the city’s unhoused population. There was no other way for residents to make their voices heard. Now, Maurer’s running for Cleveland City Council. And she’s less concerned with her own voice than she is with the voices of Clevelanders. She’s launching her campaign with a public engagement pledge that she says will help residents build a better city together. “I think there’s a real sense in Cleveland that residents have disengaged from City Hall,” Maurer said in a phone interview with Scene, referencing the low turnout in the 2020 election as Exhibit A. “The way I see it, that’s not a resident problem, that’s a City Hall problem. And City Hall has to fix it. We cannot tackle

the large issues facing our city until we get this right.” Her pledge asks 2021 council candidates, both incumbents and challengers, to agree to three simple steps: 1) establish public comment at council meetings; 2) give residents the opportunity to engage with the city’s budgeting process by, among other things, creating an interactive budget document online; and 3) take City Council on the road, convening meetings at neighborhood rec centers, libraries and public parks to make the legislative process more transparent and approachable, doing work that’s “worthy of public viewing,” in Maurer’s words. These are “easy, no brainer” commitments, Maurer wrote in a post announcing her candidacy and the ‘Better Council, Better Cleveland’ pledge. They are designed to improve engagement for a body that Maurer says has “grown accustomed to operating without resident input.” Maurer has been a Slavic Village resident since 2016 and currently serves as the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party Ward Leader in Ward 12. She has been an active and vocal community leader, particularly on voter engagement and housing issues. She told Scene that she intends to focus on a number of important issues during her campaign, including public safety, health and housing. But she said that all of these link back to the issues of public engagement, which she said were “fundamental to democracy and fundamental to good governance.” Ward 12 is one of only two wards in Cleveland that spans the Cuyahoga River. Maurer told Scene that unlike some wards which have unifying neighborhood identities — Ward 9, Glenville; Ward 17, West Park — Ward 12 includes not only the majority of Slavic Village on the east side but pieces of Old Brooklyn, Brooklyn Center and Tremont on the west. She said she’s heard repeatedly from residents that they want better transparency regarding how resources are allocated across neighborhoods. The current Ward 12 incumbent is Councilman Anthony Brancatelli, who has been the representative there since 2005. Maurer said that she plans to pull petitions at the Cuyahoga County Board of Elections in the next couple of days and wants to host a number of small, virtual campaign events over the next few months. During the campaign season, she said she wants to leave voters with “a sense of excitement about the future of the city, one that maybe they

haven’t felt in a few years. I want to leave them with a sense of a vision, that Cleveland can be a 21st century city with really good city services, but also progress and innovation that we haven’t seen.” -Sam Allard

Cleveland Public Utilities Director to Resign Cleveland’s Director of Public Utilities, Robert Davis, will resign from his cabinet-level position Friday, the city has announced. The tidbit was included in one of Cleveland’s daily coronavirus press briefings last week and provided no context or explanation for the sudden departure. A generic statement from Mayor Frank Jackson accompanied the news. “I want to thank Robert for his service to the City of Cleveland,” Jackson said. “His work has helped advance our efforts to provide reliable and affordable utility services to residents and business.” Davis chimed in with a personal farewell, too. “I am extremely grateful for the opportunity to have provided essential and critical utility services to our customers at an affordable cost,” he said. “I was able to help do this while focusing on good quality customer service to make the city of Cleveland a great place to live work and raise a family. The City of Cleveland is truly a great city.” Davis was appointed by Jackson in 2015 after serving as the city of Warren’s director of utility services. In fact, Davis has been a resident of Warren for the duration of his tenure in Cleveland. In a minor 2017 scandal, News Channel 5 documented his daily 120-mile roundtrip commute, (in a vehicle paid for by CPP ratepayers.) He still owns his home in Warren, according to Trumbull county property records. The focus on “good quality customer service” is an odd one for Davis to highlight on his way out. Last year, cleveland.com’s Leila Atassi reported that CPP had no standing board of review — as required by city ordinance — to hear appeals from customers disputing charges and payments. And last month, Frank Jackson lifted a moratorium on utilities shutoffs as Covid-19’s spread was at its most severe, when roughly 90,000 Cleveland Water customers and 28,5000 CPP customers were behind on their payments. A spokeswoman for Cleveland Public Power, when reached for comment, said that CPP staff had not yet been formally made aware of

Cleveland Public Auditorium, where the city has been administering vaccines.

Davis’ pending resignation. His last day will be next Friday. The city of Cleveland was unable to furnish additional information beyond the press release, though they did provide a copy of Davis’ resignation memo, dated Jan. 4. In it, he listed recent achievements at the Division of Water, Cleveland Public Power and Water Pollution Control. He gave no reasons for his departure but noted that 2020 had been a “unique year with numerous challenges” due to Covid-19. “I just want to make it known that throughout this unprecedented year,” he wrote, “[Utilities] employees have shown strength of spirit during this time. They have all demonstrated what teamwork truly is.” -Sam Allard

FirstEnergy Money Will Fund 2021 Cleveland Mayoral, Council Races, Councilman Warns During a Cleveland City Council committee hearing intended to update members on a resolution passed this summer which authorized an investigation into the HB6 scandal’s local ties, one councilman warned his colleagues to be wary of FirstEnergy and their financial contributions this year. Councilman Mike Polensek, who routinely mentions that he has more Cleveland Public Power customers in his Ward 8 than anyone else, was unequivocal in his message about the character of FirstEnergy.

| clevescene.com | January 13-19, 2021

“Should any of us be surprised?” He asked, after Council President Kevin Kelley had finished summarizing publicly available documents to demonstrate that FirstEnergy had funneled money to Consumers Against Deceptive Fees, (CADF), a nonprofit created to discredit CPP. “No, not at all. [FirstEnergy has] embarked upon a campaign for decades to gut CPP.” Polensek invited his colleagues to review FirstEnergy’s history and suggested that the same tactics that the company had used in the past — contributing to political candidates, pressuring members of the corporate community, lobbying to achieve selfserving legislative ends — would be on display once again in 2021. “We’re talking about dark money, and it will be used this year,” Polensek warned. “It’s all coming. It’s a reality. It’s a concerted plan to destroy CPP. It’s been one action after another.” He referred to FirstEnergy’s actions as “clandestine,” “dastardly,” and “devious” at various points in his remarks, and implored his colleagues to recognize that FirstEnergy had not changed. They have always been, and will continue to be, focused on eliminating the municipal utility. “So let us be very careful this campaign year,” he said. “They will try to undercut and destabilize our body in councilmatic races and in the mayor’s race. We need to be very wary.” Polensek’s speech occurred

during the Q&A portion of the meeting. Kevin Kelley’s initial presentation was a straightforward accounting of the known financial link between FirstEnergy and Consumers Against Deceptive Fees. That group, which had received a $200,000 lump sum from another nonprofit exlusively funded by FirstEnergy, had showered Cleveland with social media ads and flyers about CPP’s poor service and high rates. In late 2018 and early 2019, it met with Cleveland council members and drafted legislation that Kelley said would have proven fatal to CPP. The Q&A period covered a number of related topics, including the ongoing woes at CPP and the unresponsiveness of the Jackson administration. Councilman Blaine Griffin asked why council had not yet subpoenaed FirstEnergy in its ongoing investigation. Kelley said that subpoenas and other legal remedies were being actively considered. But he said the fundamental question of council’s summer resolution — did HB6 entities funnel dark money into operations adverse to the City of Cleveland? — had been conclusively answered in the affirmative. Councilman Charles Slife wondered whether anything might be done about the publicly owned Browns stadium, which bears the name of FirstEnergy. He lamented that this company which had sought to undermine a public utility was deriving “substantial marketing revenue” from a publicly owned facility.

“The good news,” Kelley replied, “is that FirstEnergy Stadium is powered by Cleveland Public Power.” -Sam Allard

Cleveland Has Administered Only 20% of Its 6,000 Vaccines, But “Plan” Is Still in Works The City of Cleveland announced last week in a Covid press briefing that it had received 6,000 doses of the Moderna Covid-19 vaccine and that more than 1,200 people had already received their first of two doses. Assuming the city’s estimates are correct, more than 1,600 people will have received their first dose by the end of this week. The detailed update was likely a

response to reporting from Fox 8 that thousands of un-administered vaccines were “sitting on a shelf” in the city’s possession. The local news station reported that in the first two weeks after receiving the vaccines, only 600 people had received their first of two doses. It quoted city council members who were incredulous that no plan appeared to be in place. (When the city released its update to the media Thursday and scheduled an in-depth conversation with Cleveland.com, it did so without communicating information directly to Cleveland City Council, according to WKYC’s Mark Naymik.) The City reported last week that from Dec. 24-29, 660 doses were administered to city employees (largely in the division of fire and EMS), and to non-staff residents who belong to the state of Ohio’s Phase 1 population, healthcare workers and those who interact regularly with Covid-19 patients. Currently, vaccines are being administered at Public Auditorium downtown. In the conversation with Cleveland.com, Frank Jackson and health officials said that six additional sites are being considered. Those are likely to include the city’s recreation facilities. Over the next few weeks, the city will continue to vaccinate Phase 1A employees and said it would begin vaccinating those in congregate living facilities, potentially setting up mobile units to administer the vaccine on-site. The biggest problem, Jackson said at a Tuesday press conference on the topic, was that the city lacked the infrastructure to administer the vaccines on such a widespread basis. Observers will note that though the public health department has long been a dysfunctional part of City Hall, city officials had months to build a plan to efficiently deliver vaccines to workers and residents. And, if it felt ill-equipped to do so, could have relied on the extensive (and extensively touted) world-class medical community to help design one. The city took pains to note that vaccines were not being disposed of unused. Though a formal scheduling process still sounds like it’s being worked out, the Department of Public Health says it is working with other city departments to identify essential workers “who are able and available to receive the vaccine” in the event that those scheduled to receive the vaccine don’t show up at their appointed times. - Sam Allard

EAT SOUTHERN COMFORTS

Soho’s fast-casual pivot delivers the goods, even if it has us pining for the original By Douglas Trattner Photo by Doug Trattner

AFTER YET ANOTHER GLOOMYgrey winter’s day, it might be tempting to crack the seal of that wee plastic bottle tucked into the brown paper bag on the car’s passenger seat. Undoubtedly, its contents would be “a cure for what ails you.” But like most old-fashioned tonics, this one is comprised almost entirely of alcohol. Best, perhaps, to wait until after the drive. That old-fashioned tonic is, in fact, an Old Fashioned cocktail ($10), crafted by the folks at Soho in Ohio City and intended to be poured over ice and enjoyed at home. This notion of “enjoyed at home” runs so counter to the Soho ethos that it’s almost too much to bear. After all, the entire premise of the joint is to convey owners Nolan Konkoski and Molly Smith’s appreciation for southern hospitality (the “so” and “ho” in Soho). For nine years, meals at this cherished restaurant have begun with complimentary biscuits, butter and jam and ended with gratis Charleston Chews. In between are boisterous meals lubricated with enough bourbon and rye-laced beverages to make poor decisions appear sound. As lovers of great food and restaurants, we’ve already lost so much this year. So it was heartwarming to hear that management would be reopening the doors for the first time since March. But when that happened this past November, almost everything about the business had changed, including the name. For the time being, Soho goes by Chicken Run as a way to distinguish the quick-serve spinoff from the full-service precursor. “It’s so much different from what we used to do, obviously,” said Konkoski. “But we’ve finally gotten over how weird it is handing people food through a window instead of full-service.” Yes, Chicken Run swaps that trademark cordiality for the safety and efficiency of an impersonal pickup window. But the items that make their way through the pass are still a boon for Southern food fans who have had to do without for lo these many months. Like many modern meals, these begin with a visit to an online-ordering portal. At the

preselected date and time, a button is pushed, a window is raised, and the goods swiftly exchanged. Despite being pared down, the menu doesn’t appear to lack in any appreciable way. We can still order some of Cleveland’s best fried chicken by the breast ($5), thigh ($4) or drum ($3) and pair it with sides like cheesy grits, mac and cheese and mashed potatoes and gravy. Meals at

the 20-minute drive. This version is loaded with shrimp, sausage and chicken, fortified with rice, and aggressively spiced to ward of the chill. For good measure, add a few dashes of the Good Golly hot sauce, sold in adorable 2- and 4-ounce squeeze bottles. The most significant changes arrived in the form of handhelds – no surprise given the fast-casual

home still can commence with those heavenly biscuits, butter and jam, but they’re no longer on the house ($5). No Soho dinner is complete without that savory pimento cheese dip ($10), served with a bountiful bag of housefried chips. “Old favorites” like chicken and waffles and shrimp and grits date clear back to opening day, as do staples like deviled eggs and fried green tomatoes. The gumbo ($10) is every bit as hot, thick, smoky and satisfying as I recall – even after

conversion. For a few years now, Soho touted one of the best fried chicken sandwiches around – one bound together with pimento cheese, coleslaw, dill pickles and remoulade. That earth-shatteringly good stack (now called the Nashville, $12) is joined by versions tricked out with country ham, deviled-egg salad and, we kid you not, bacon, peanut butter and jam. A separate line of sandwiches swaps the glossy egg buns for airy buttermilk biscuits and the results are predictably delicious.

Many, like the San Antonio ($12), are brunch-themed, starring scrambled eggs, sausage, hash browns and chowchow. There’s even a tub o’ gravy for dipping. Others feature lox and guac, bacon and fried green tomatoes, and fried chicken and spicy schmaltz. When seated at Soho’s bar, one is propelled through all seven deadly sins thanks to a staggering collection of more than 100 American whiskeys. For now, that beautiful view has been whittled down to a dozen or so cocktails, packaged to go in vessels listing the contents. Bouncing around at the bottom of the bag we discovered a few Charleston Chews. The candies cheerfully reminded us of lively meals inside the Ohio City restaurant, which at present is closed up tighter than a live clam. Chicken Run, as good and relevant as it is, is no substitute for the real McCoy. Thankfully, the owners vow to bring it back to life as soon as it’s safe to do so.

Lindey’s Lake House in Lakewood to reopen as Bar Italia By Douglas Trattner BIG CHANGES ARE COMING to Lakewood, says Rick Doody, restaurateur behind such concepts as Cedar Creek Grille, 17 River Grille and Lindey’s Lake House. Drawing on his roots as co-founder of Bravo and Brio restaurants, Doody is converting the format at his two-yearold Lakewood eatery, Lindey’s Lake House, to Bar Italia, starring fresh pastas and homemade sauces. “We’ve been working for months on this new concept,” Doody explains. “We’re pretty close to being completed.” Doody says that the changes were largely driven by Covid and evolving consumer demand, which places a premium on foods that travel and reheat well following carry-out and delivery. “We learned and we’re trying to adapt,” he says. “We think converting to Italian makes sense and is the right thing to do.” Doody and his team noticed that the dishes that outperformed all others over these past few months were the family-sized pasta dishes that were designed to be reheated at home. Bar Italia is designed to expand on the success of those family-style, to-go pasta dishes. “When those pasta dishes did so well, it was like our Lakewood community was telling us what they’d like to see more of in the neighborhood,” adds Director of Operation Pat Granzier. Bar Italia will use fresh pasta from Flour Pasta Company , fresh-baked breads from On the Rise and madefrom-scratch sauces crafted with highquality meats. Appetizers will include staples like a chopped Italian salad, burrata with grilled country bread, fritto misto with fried calamari and shrimp, and sausage-stuffed hot peppers. Diners can mix and match between a half-dozen fresh pastas and a halfdozen different sauces. Those a la carte pasta dishes are joined on the menu by entrees like classic chicken parmesan, parmesan-crusted chicken in lemon butter sauce, veal Marsala with spaghetti pomodoro, three-meat lasagna, shrimp Diavalo and grilled branzino.

Lindey’s Lake House currently is undergoing a complete interior makeover to warm the space up and make it more inviting. New awnings, signage and exterior lighting will follow. Bar Italia also will roll out a fleet of five Ferrari-red Fiat 500s and will employ its own team of drivers to deliver the food. “This is going to be way cooler than Bravo-Brio,” Doody promises. Doody says that if the concept does as well as he thinks it will in Lakewood, the same changes could be applied in Beachwood. There will be no such changes in the Flats, he adds. Look for Bar Italia to open in late January.

A.J. Rocco’s Owner Shares Ambitious Plans for New Home in Nearby Huron Point Building After an 18-year run, A. Brendan Walton closed his popular Gateway District café/bar/music venue A.J. Rocco’s a year ago this past December. He did not have to look far for a new home. When it opens sometime this spring, the new A.J. Rocco’s will occupy a nearby patch of downtown real estate that most recently was home to Huron Point Tavern and, before that, Alesci’s Downtown. Following the death of Jeff Burson, operator of Huron Point Tavern, the owners of the 150-year-old threestory structure used the opportunity to begin an ambitious building restoration project. Architect Joe Hanna recruited Walton to consider the property as the new home of A.J. Rocco’s. “To continue on, we thought about what we were lacking,” Walton says. “The big thing is we were able to establish a kitchen and we never had one at A.J Rocco’s. The events are great, but we have to be here not just for that but to have people come on any given night.” A full kitchen will allow Walton to expand well beyond the pizza and sandwiches that sustained guests for years. The full-service bar and restaurant will be casual enough to accommodate families bound for

Progressive Field, says Walton, but nice enough to attract couples on date night. “Not fancy-schmancy; it’s still the same-old A.J. Rocco’s,” promises Walton. The removal of a main-floor bank vault added considerable space and light to the rear of the building. In addition to new windows and seating, the rear now features a stairway to a second-floor mezzanine that can be used for overflow and private events. A.J. Rocco’s will still function as an all-day café, opening bright and early to dispense Cleveland Coffee products starting at 7 a.m. With nearly twice the space indoors and more than double on the front patio, the new spot will allow Walton to better capitalize on downtown events. Live music, always an important albeit intermittent facet of the business, will be revived at some point. A phase 3 might include some sort of rooftop bar. Closing as he did at the tail end of 2019, Walton managed to escape the worst of Covid. He said that he has been able to sit back and observe other operators navigate the crisis, which will help him do the same when the time comes to open the doors. “I just think this is going to be the most anticipated spring of our lifetime,” he says. “When I first opened A.J.’s in 2001, I was envisioning what we’re hopefully going to announce. It’s going to be new and fresh and it’s coming on the heels of one the strangest times of our life.”

Filter Restaurant to Bring HighEnergy Dining and Nightlife to the Warehouse District in Spring If you’re a seafood lover, the name Kyler Smith likely rings a bell. In just two short years, Smith has propelled

his Sauce Boiling Seafood concept from a single location in University Heights to one that will boast five locations by mid-2021, extending from downtown Cleveland to suburban Columbus. Next up for the confident young entrepreneur is a project called Filter, which currently is taking shape in the Warehouse District. Smith’s biggest gambit yet, the fine-dining, fullservice restaurant is coming to life in the former Take 5 Rhthym and Jazz space in the Perry–Payne Building. Expected to open in May, the 120seat restaurant and bar will inject a much-needed dose of entertainment and nightlife into that corner of the city. “I’m a little nervous because the project is so huge,” Smith admits. “This is something I know I have to be successful with from day one.” Billed as a contemporary restaurant serving “big drinks, big food and big plates,” Filter takes its name from the ubiquitous Instagram tool. The restaurant will feature a photobooth to complement the cocktails, DJs and music. “Sunday Funday” brunches will extend the party clear through the weekend. The menu will be under the control of chef Jarrett Mine, whose client roster as a private chef includes top players from the Cleveland Browns. “People always ask me how I got into the restaurant business,” Smith explains. “No, I’m not a chef; I never even worked in a restaurant in my life. But I’ve been creating concepts that I know people are going to enjoy. I’m selling a vibe, I’m selling vision, I’m selling entertainment and energy every time you’re in one of my spots.”

SAVAGE LOVE CUM AGAIN By Dan Savage Hey, Dan: As you can see by my signature, Dan, I’m a linguist. On your podcast, you frequently ask researchers “whatchyougot” on all kinds of sex- and romance-related questions, I thought maybe you’d be interested in some expertise on linguistic matters, too. And I have some on “cum,” “cumming,” and (shudder) “cummed.” The technical term here used among linguists for this kind of phenomenon is “peeve.” Let me clarify, it’s not the “cum,” “cumming,” and “cummed” that’s a peeve but the shuddering. You see, the snide sound there is due to the fact that [what] causes peevers to shudder causes linguists to get interested. The point is language always changes, and linguists are interested in these changes however much they horrify normal people. (That’s our technical term for non-linguists.) Grandparents are forever lamenting about how their grandchildren’s generation is ruining the language. Documentation of this phenomenon goes back to the Roman times. And indeed generations upon generations of grandchildren turned Latin into Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, Catalan and a host of lesser known forms of ruination. In terms of the sticky substance at hand (or on hand), “cum” as a verb and “cumming” are just alternative spellings, which are common enough for slang. It’s slang! You really gonna insist slang follow uptight and buttoneddown spelling rules, Dan? That’s just stoopid. “Cummed” is more interesting — and also causes peevers to shudder — because it’s a real change in the language. But why shudder? Why not appreciate it instead? “Cummed” shows us how creative we are with our language, how we play with it, and in this case do something useful, differentiating the sublime “got off” (climaxed) from the banal “got there” (arrived). Don’t fall into useless peeving, Dan! You’ve famously instigated language change. Just ask Rick Santorum, your former college roommate, or the men who’ve

cummed and cummed hard while a nice vagina-haver pegged their ass. Michael Newman Professor of Linguistics and Chair Department of Linguistics and Communication Disorders Queens College/CUNY Thank you for taking the time to write, Professor Newman, and please forgive me for peeving you. But the sticky issue for me — if you’ll pardon the expression — remains the seemingly unnecessary and arbitrary use of an alternate spelling in this one instance. As I’ve said before, no one is confused when someone calls a person a “dick” in print and then goes on to wax poetic about the dick they sucked in the next sentence. If we don’t have to spell it “dik” when we’re referring to male genitalia — or the genitals of penis-havers — I don’t see why “come” needs to be spelled “cum” when referring to someone climaxing or when referring to ejaculate. Of all the words out there with more than one meaning — dick, dong, cock, pussy, beaver, box, crack, rack, sack — why does this one require special linguistic treatment?

Hey, Dan: Interesting take on “cum” … as your column ventured into linguistics. How do you feel about “tonite” for “tonight” or “lite” for “light”? Inquiring minds want to know. Commonly Used Mutated Spellings I made inquiries at the website of the world’s best dictionary (and best drag name) Merriam-Webster, CUMS, where I learned “tonite” is “a blasting explosive consisting of a mixture of guncotton with a nitrate” and “lite” means “made with a lower calorie content or with less of some such ingredient (salt, fat, or alcohol) than usual.” So you can have dinner tonight and wash it down with something lite, CUMS, but don’t have tonite for dinner unless you want to light yourself up.

Hey, Dan: I basically agree with your views about spelling the verb as “come.” However, I think one could be a bit more nuanced about usage here. “Come” is rather polite and could easily be used in a romantic context (“Oh, god, honey I’m about to come”) whereas “cum” has a definite “let’s fuck” feel to it (something not unheard of in your column). Different contexts call for different styles, perhaps. I would also like to make an outright exception for the substance “cum,” which I feel should always be spelled with a “u.” For the noun, using the “u” hardly

seems vulgar at all. One might wonder why “cum” seems more appropriate for denoting semen. I can think of two good reasons. First, “cum” evokes “scum,” which matches the feelings of some (benighted) people that cum is slimy and disgusting. And secondly, the final letters “um” occur in some medical terms — all nouns — which relate to sex, like pudendum, scrotum, rectum, flagellum, perineum. This is a very different association than scum but also seems like part of the story, at least to me. TK Hmm … I agree that an alternate spelling when referring to ejaculate could be helpful. But context also provides clarity. If a man and/ or penis-haver says, “My come was everywhere,” no one thinks his/hers/their orgasms are Jesus Christ or dark matter — literally everywhere throughout the universe — but rather that he’s/she’s/they’re exaggerating about the volume of a recent orgasm to make a point about the intensity of pleasure he/she/they derived from it.

Hey, Dan: I’ve been a copy editor for 15 years and a Savage Love reader for much longer. I wanted to chime in on fellow Canadian COME’s letter about the “come” vs. “cum” spelling. I fully agree that as a verb, it should be “come” and “came/coming” instead of “cummed/cumming.” But there is a place for “cum”: as a noun when referring to the actual gooey substance (aka semen, ejaculate, spunk, etc). Consider the sentence “I have come in my mouth.” Are you announcing an act of autofellatio (talk about a cumblebrag!) or are you describing a substance someone else left behind? Or “How did come get on my jacket?” Doesn’t that just look like a mistake? Millennials love turning nouns into verbs (adulting!) but I think using “come” as a noun is incorrect. And what about describing something as “cummy”? How would you spell that? Comy? Comey? Perhaps we can all come together on this: “come” for the verb of achieving orgasm; “cum” for the noun that describes the resulting emission. Copyeditor Uses Modification For A Noun Your argument convinced me, CUMFAN. If everyone else agrees to use “come” for the verb, I can swallow “cum” as a noun. The copy editor carries the day!

Hey, Dan: You were close with your advice to Cabin Fever, the man whose

teenager was derailing his sex life, but it was still a miss. Instead of telling his kid to “take a fucking walk,” per your advice, he should use the moment to teach. As you said, Dan, even teenage boys realize that happy-and-still-in-love parents are a good thing. So instead of being confrontational, CF and his wife could laugh and pay their son the compliment of being honest: “We enjoy sex, but we don’t enjoy it with you in the next room any more than you enjoy hearing it.” Then come up with someplace for him to go for a few hours that HE wants to go to and make it happen. By being upfront they’ll be modeling healthy adult behavior and a healthy and adult approach to problem solving. This is truly an opportunity for good parenting. Mom And Dad Are Fucking While I did advise CF to tell his kid to “take a fucking walk” when mommy and daddy wanted to peg, I expected CF to approach that conversation in a tactful and constructive manner. That said, due to the pandemic, there aren’t many places for a kid to go when his parents are fucking. A walk, for now, may be their best option. If CF’s family doesn’t already have a dog, perhaps they should get one. To my readers: There are more important things happening in the world right now than disputes over sexual slang, I realize, but I hope today’s column was a welcome and fleeting distraction from the news … kinda like that viral video of the sweet guy whose cat won’t let him make his audition tape. I’m following the news and reacting in real time on Twitter, if you care to hear what I have to say, and like all sane people everywhere I’m equal parts furious and mortified. Donald Fucking Trump and every last one of his co-conspirators in his family, in his administration, and in Congress belong in prison with every last traitor who stormed the U.S. Capitol last week. Impeach the motherfucker again and indict all the motherfuckers already. Questions? mail@savagelove. net. Follow Dan on Twitter @ FakeDanSavage.
