I thought for a second you went to a bar and picked up more than you bargained for.

Describe the "tugging"? Like a back and forth movement?

I never heard the term "tug" before. No idea what that means.

Is the TV cable adjusted properly?

Tranny, tug? Are you sure this wasn't supposed to go in the "Girls Love Corvettes thread?

You have a sick mind -- I like that.

It seems like this thread is deteriorating rapidly. Maybe we need an IBTL...
