Yeah, rolling in the mud is a clear sign of hygiene obsession! Also note that the Bible (you know, that reliable classic) calls swine "unclean". Most importantly, it was a befittingly crude generalization. - Bulletchewer, 2007-01-02: 16:42:00

....snorts, and puts head back in bucket. - egonschiela, 2007-01-02: 18:55:00
