I kinda appreciate that this thread was started by somebody who went outta his way to ask me earlier…

You meant peeking right?

Well, if the acid that I spilled on my jeans today continues at the current rate, that shouldn’t be a problem.

And they tell you acid-washed jeans are a good thing. 🙂

Though I think I need some more proof on your part, eh?
