...dude, of course. Check out this song..." He launched into a semi-rap, arms folding and refolding across his chest, combat boots stamping a muddled beat. The main themes of his tune seemed to be Catholicism, jism, blood, and bondage. In one climactic verse the words "juxtaposition" "crucifix" and "pumping" followed each other in quick succession...
