mean ideas people
If you have it you don't need it. If you need it, you don't have it. If you have it, you need more of it. If you have more of it, you don't need less of it. You need it to get it.

You can even stockpile it if you like. But you can't fake it. Wanting it. Needing it. Wishing for it. The point is if you've never had any of it ever people just seem to know. Bruce Campbell

When it crosses over to white, that means it's going from cool to uncool. That's what crossover is. Brett Ratner
