@Gayé – The rudeness is a result of the pressure of trying to make it perfect and pretending to enjoy it.

@Sniffle&Cry – “?? – please” as in “oh, please spare me!” or as in “translate please”.

Happy feelings have to be organic. Like the best drugs.

And there won't be snow in Africa, either. I don't know Primal, can you fabricate a happy feeling or does it have to be organic?

@Quickroute – Remember the Life of Brian:

Wise man #1: We are three wise men.
Brian’s mother: Well, what are you doing creeping around a cow shed at two o’clock in the morning? That doesn’t sound very wise to me.
Wise man #1: We were led by a star.
Brian’s mother: Led by a bottle, more like.
