b"For those of us who are proud members of the Louie Louie Generation, the Pimple People are easy to spot. As I told you in my book Staying Happy Healthy And Hot, they walk around with nails stuck in their tongues, texting instead of sexing, and wearing their jeans so low that when the walk away they can leave us looking at dirty crack. \\n\\tAlthough age is not the most important factor for Pimple People Hood, most of them are young, so you can excuse them for not having a clue.
