No offense intended but every time I passed the Muscatine exit on I-80, I heard this song in my head:

MUSCATINE WHY CAN'T YOU BE TRUE
OH MUSCATINE
WHY CAN'T YOU BE TRUE
YOU DONE STARTED DOING THE THINGS
YOU USE TO DO

[K7SGJ]

You weren't, by chance, putting your mascara on, were you?

You weren't, by chance, putting your mascara on, were you?

No way I'd admit to that. Honey.
