Well, I suppose you could be a silicon-derived hyper-marked up
htmllinger, but I'm sure I'm just plain human.

Not quite what I meant, but probably true nonetheless.

We tell that joke about the Belgians.

Being picked up by a different guy every night is not what I call a
normal sex life. IMO, a normal sex life usually doesn't start in a bar
at all. And about smart women being bitchy... could well be 'cause
they see through 'typical' men's attempts at getting laid.

Some, not all of them. It helps to not hear them every single day
though.

That's cause you're a man.

No, the Dutch clap their hands too. Not instead of tapping their foot
impatiently though.

No I wouldn't. Unless you'd lie about it :-)
You could be a 20 year old male (although you probably wouldn't have
known Black by Pearl Jam), or a 100 year old woman. (I'd suspect
you're somewhere in between though)

Hm.. no, us Dutch don't regard most foreigners euphoric. Aussies have
a reputation though, and I've noticed it to be true for at least 90%
of the ones I met in real life.

Hm.. I'd believe happily married, as well as single and frustrated.
Just don't believe plastic artificial sex-partner. You're don't seem
sad enough for that.

I'd say those were probably yours.

Words read like you could have written them though.

It sounds very familiar, but as I can't find the lyrics online, it's
probably not a well-known band? Sounds like 80's gothic style though.

Maybe - did you have to laugh when you wrote it?
