    Hell, I thought it was brilliant. Think about it for a few seconds and you'll get it. Even if Ace didn't mean for it to work, it does.

    Euphemisms can be hard if you're used to being a straightforward-talking person.

    Flogging Li'l Jed, the one-eyed, bulemic wonder-mule.

    Abusing myself in the eyes of the Lord.

    It's doubly funny because it will never actually happen.
