no, I could just stroll up to the bar, casually slip my arm around some hot chick, announce that "all this situation lacks is some pussy", go on to explain that "I've had nineteen years and eleven months of no sex, but I wouldn't describe myself as 'not up for it'", before finishing it off with a simple plea of "Bang Louis Jagger".

it is sure to succeed.

It's called BEING POSSESSED BY SATAN.

-- Pleasant Plains /// (pleasant.plain...), January 10th, 2007.

Uh, what the hell are you talking about? Are you RETARDED?

He was NOT "POSSESSED BY SATAN". You'd have to be a cretin to think that.

He SOLD HIS SOUL to SATAN. That's very different. This also explains all the features I was talking about. Satan, however would leave him alone until his time came, at which point he would dragged down into the feiry pit of brimstone for ETERNITY.

Points for the Hawaiian Punch beans, too, which succeed in tasting exactly like Hawaiian Punch. Given the flagrant failures in this genre -- Hubba Bubba soda, Milky Way milkshakes, gummi frogs -- I think it's admirable when junk food of one medium manages to taste like junk food of another medium. The door at the end of this hallway surely leads to Butterfinger potato chips, and I am ready to take off my shoes and sock-slide into a world of flavor.

I downloaded this the other day and realized I hadn't actually heard it before, I'd just read about it. Pretty sweet.

I think around the time this song came out, Abercrombie and Fitch was definitely a hot brand, what with the controversial near-naked catalogue models, and partially because of that, it began to stand for a whole class of preppie teen fashion. So it doesn't seem all that implausible that a guy would be attracted to an "Abercrombie girl" -- I remember referring to people that way myself in the late '90s.
