"And boy are some people on Wall Street ticked off about it"

Is that so? Well, let me clear my throat here so I can be crystal clear.

[a-hem]

BOO-FUCKING-HOO!

You mean someone took advantage of the letter of the law, manipulating things in a way clearly contrary to the intent, benefiting because their marks relied on things to work the way they always had? Hey now, sucks being on the other side of that for a change, doesn't it?

The letter of the law instead of the spirit of the law.

You can't legislate against cunning...

I've spent an unreasonable amount of thought on the line Janet sings in Rocky Horror: "His lust is so sincere". Now, on the surface, that's a big "DUH!" because that's the nature of lust. But wait: Brad has earlier sung about how hot he is for her, and it's pretty clear he's just being conventional. Brad's lust is not sincere.

Now, I could swill green mead and gnaw raw meat with sincere lust. As for kimchee and lutefisk, well, those would be just for effect. And if I'm just going for effect, I might as well wear a tie. And pants.
