My brother has a mixed R&B/Rap tape he was playing this weekend when we went out, and on it one song has what I think is one of the least romantic phrase I have ever heard. " There’s thug in me/ **I wanna put it in you**" Argghhh! Put it in you?? That’s the best thing he could think of?? So, what other equally unromantic things have people said in the name of love? ---

Before I say this, let me explain that this was a line in a pretty damn funny Saturday Night Live fake commercial. “I want to put my evil inside you.” ---

This is the funniest thing I have read all week. Which commercial was it? \*\* It was one about a home security system. Basically it involved putting life-like dummies that looked like murderers all over your house. For instance, there would be a dummy with a chainsaw and a hockey mask in the bathroom with you while you were taking a shower. It would scare away real murderers. At the end, they had a dummy sitting in a lazy boy with the whole family in the living room, he said this through a speaker in his mouth. ---

A bit crude and unromantic but also really funny… xcheopis (leafing through a junk mail catalogue): “How about if I get one of those bras that enhances cleavage?” SO (in astonishment): “What for? You’ve got plenty of tits.” ---

“Let’s screw now before I shower while I’m still dirty. I don’t want to wash again afterwards.” “The commercials will last for 3 minutes, can you suck this and make me climax before the game starts again?” “I just met this new neighbor and she’s really hot. Let’s have sex while she’s fresh in my memory.” ---

I don’t remember the exact phrasing, but it was something along the lines of “I like you -so- much, I don’t want to hold your hand, kiss you, or cuddle on the couch” (all of which were activities we had previously engaged in) Nothing quite screws with your confidence the same way. ---

One song always made me laugh. Don’t know the artist, but it was one of those 70’s era singer-songwriters. Anyhow, the song is full of lush romantic imagery, and it all leads up to the chorus: “I wanna make it with you. I think that we could make it good …” Etc. Oh yeah, that’s gonna work. Sua ---
