"It's semi-autobiographical."

Shit, now I have to watch the Gangam Style video ANOTHER billion times? Let me call work and let them know what's up.

"There's a sausage in it on page 3."

Baldrick from Black Adder: "I wrote a manifesto."

Ahh, the classic backpedal gambit where you retcon all the batshit things you just said and pretend you were making a reasoned argument in the first place.

Joe Francis! When did you get out!

By contrast, when I Google "dog ejaculation video" I expect to find Jimmy Kimmel clips and little else. Does that mean you Bing? Don't Bing. It's not a good look.

Ah, the old "I draw the line at tugging off a dog" joke. Classic icebreaker.
