She also heard, "Your daddy watches porno now that mommy's not around" and was even more deeply offended. 

Funny story.   :thumbup:

Is it just me, or did any other 30-somethings get a warm, fuzzy feeling at the mention of teenagers enjoying a 20-year-old Guns n' Roses tune?

Coming from a 40-something, I did as most of the music nowadays is crap.

At least it wasn't "I Used To Love Her (But I Had To Kill Her)". "Mr. Brownstone" fan myself.

And the teens and 20-somethings these days (the ones I meet anyway) seem to like 80s music they were slightly too young to enjoy the first time around.

Ah, Mr. Brownstone. Still my favourite off that album. Very catchy tune.

Just thinking of high school and GNR, there was one English class where I actually got to quote Mr. Brownstone. Somehow, this very young teacher ended up with every slacker, headbanger and class clown in one room. We had some fun, I can tell you.

Anyway, we do a little exercise in which we find metaphors in song lyrics. Somebody early on has a good one with some mild cursing, and we're given permission to include coarse language if it is an integral part of the quote.

My turn comes:
"That old man, he's a real motherf**cker"

Got away with it too.
