Membership in Amnesty International, not so much.
Glad we could clear that up.

You know, Flan, the last time I wore red shoes, I got hit on by an old hippy lady who said she had a thing for guys with red shoes. I wonder if the same thing happens to him. Probably not. That's a pretty specific fetish.
