As I haven't seen much of such flicks, I can't really tell :-)
I'm guessing it's not though. How to explain this to the male
species...
It's not the showing, but the showing off, making absolutely sure we
pay attention to it, even if we've just seen it enough already.
Basically like a little boy that's proud of a new accomplishment.
Only little boys are cute when they do that.

Someone told me the Fins still do it that way. Hit the woman over the

I think you make matters worse than they are. All you need is a decent
switch so you can turn 'em off when it gets too much.

That's okay then - I'm all for stricter standards. None of that

That's still anywhere between 20 and 50 years.

Jack Daniels doesn't bite.
Well, never bit me - tastes great with Coke.

As long as they're happy, who cares about delusional.

That's why I mentioned them both and used the word 'and' in between

That helped me find it, thanks. It's indeed Unknowne, and I found two
more mp3s by them.
