I know. Sorry. I just had a thought and ran with it to see where it would go and I have a tendency to try to write it down in order to remember it better. So, yes...

I know that's a blush icon but everyone should take it as embarrassment. Maybe the icon of the drooping penis would be more appropriate for embarrassment.
On another note: that Garbage song, very good. Anything to watch a pretty woman nearly smooching the camera as she sings provocatively.
And to atone for my previous sin: there's a song I heard for the first time as a wee lad. I didn't understand it then but it's all too obvious now. It's in Spanish though, of the Salsa genre. More specifically it's old salsa from the 80s when salsa was still good and not the throwaway swill it is nowadays; it's what my people call "salsa gorda," literally "thick salsa." Yes, rather like the stuff you eat. The difference between salsa gorda and contemporary salsa is like wine and vinegar. It's Willie Colon's "El Gran Varon" or "The Great Man," "The Big Man." It's about a transvestite. It's the entire life story of a transvestite and it ends in, well, a rather predictable manner. Not predictable in a bad way, rather that...well, find a translation and you'll see. Somehow my father never batted an eye when the song came on and I was in the car.
