They have whatever's the Tim Hortons back-bacon equivalent search engine. It's like the complete utter opposite of where Tep finds his tranny pics.

Meskies-era Joe should've done more good-time songs like "It's A Rockin' World" and "Coma Girl."

At times he got a little too bogged down in ponderous World Music for my tastes.

I'll take your money, but I'm not plowing your driveway.
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Joe's power pop songs are so much fun partially because he was wise enough to only do a few of them.

That's probably in my top 10 all time Simpsons lines. I can't even read it without thinking the sentence in Homer's voice and starting to crack up.
