"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

I loved that song as a young child. But it wasn't until I read Hec's bubblegum pop book that I realized it was about oral sex.

Oh dear, I must have missed that chapter. Oh well, another little bit of childhood innocence gone the way of the dodo.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, when I was a kid I didn't know what "Bungle in the Jungle" was about either....

Oh, see that one was pretty obvious to me, but I found Tull at a later age than I did "Yummy, Yummy, Yummy."

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, remember the shoes I bought in a smaller size than I normally wear? Yeah, I think they are too small. Does patent leather stretch out at all?

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Do you have one of those shoe thingies? You know they look like the front and back of a foot and adjust in the middle?

I don't, but I suppose I could get one. They do seem like they'd be useful.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

Is it really patent leather, or is it patent fake leather? My guess is that real leather will stretch, but not fake. I

I believe it to be real leather. If nothing else, I think I'll wear them with socks when I get home!

Not in my experience.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I have a pair of patent shoes I've been begging to stretch for months on end now. They've gotten to the point where I can put them on and feel fine, but I slip out of them at work and back in for lunch and they're too tight.
