You're so vain......

RE: You're so vain......
But the point is that she's singing a song about a person who she thinks is thinking the song is about them, implying that the song she's singing about this person is not actually about the person she's singing the song about but some other person she's not even singing the song about, even though it's about them.

What's best to take for headaches?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

I thought this was interesting:

Quote:Among the prohibited tags are at least 30 references to sexual orientation, including “LESBIAN”, “GAYGUY” and “HOMO.” Terms such as “STRAIT” and “HETERO” are not on the list, but that doesn’t mean they’d necessarily be approved.

Of course they wouldn't ban Strait. I can't be sure of the extent of the country music fandom in South Carolina (though there are apparently 28 country music stations in the state), but I get the impression George Strait would be pretty damn popular:

Hard to tell about this. Article is by "Maggie Angst". Huh 

I do know that in the past, here in California (I think) a urologist got "IV SKIN" as a vanity plate. Big Grin That was in the '70s, IIRC.

Just imagine how much fun that blue nose squad at their DMV has, raking through the muck at the Urban Dictionary. Big Grin  They should put that bimbo from the marriage license bureau in that spot. (or was that Kentucky?- I'm drawing a blank)

Are you saying that she missed her calling as frontwoman of an early-eighties-style punk rock band called Urine Stain? Perhaps so.

But that has no bearing on her journalistic integrity, Fireball.

Cool! I'll check her out. It's just that when I see a name like that, I have to wonder if it is a parody. This being the internet, and all.

Benatar was my first vanity plate. I used to be a huge Pat Benatar fan.
