I think I'm familiar with that, yes.

See?  This is why you're a musician and I'm not.  I saw that video and 
thought, "Look at Bono in those tight black pants!  Look at him twitching 
his cute little ass to the music!"  Getting a musical instrument and 
learning how to play it never entered my head.  My point?  If you had been 
born gay, John, it's very possible that you would not be a musician right now.

No, you're right.  I never have a problem meeting chicks.  I have to beat 
chicks away with a goddamn plank of wood.  Really.  I have slightly less 
success with guys.  Maybe they see me making out with all those chicks and 
they get the wrong idea?
