Are we talking "I wanna dip my BALLS in it" Louie?

Or a different Louie?

Different.  Think Little Nephew Louie.

Looks like I'm a bit late to this party, but whatever.
That's not a cultural reference, by the way, just an observation.

Maybe in a crazy town like this, you pay for the happy Winston Churchill quote with the nasty parrot shit.

I'm Jesus and you're not.

They're only pretending to be rocks!

My stepfather looks just like David Bowie, but he hates David Bowie. I think Bowie's cool.

"I love deadlines. I like the whooshing noise they make as they pass by".

I've heard this attributed to a few people, but I think it's Douglas Adams

Damn Salmon is a great one. I never realised how many essays and articles he had written, and it's fun to read some of his books right after since he seems to just throw everything he is interested in that he can.

just as the rhythm's designed to bounce
what counts is that the rhyme's designed to fill your mind

probably not obscure, but that line... filled my mind? it won't get out.

edit: part of what I like is that it is real hard to decide where to put the line break. So I just kind of put it between the two ideas, rather than where one of the rhymes is.

What did I do to deserve this? What was my crime?
Was it because I sampled Die Toten Hosen that one time?!
