When I first read it I thought it was cool, an advertisement targeting serial killers. What better to describe me...I mean you. Then I realized it wasn't Man-IN-Bag. Now I just feel odd, but I'm okay with that, which makes me feel odder. Awe crap, now I'm stuck in an infinite loop. Thanks man....thanks.

Justice needs a man bag. He just me to convince him that he needs one; otherwise I'm stuck with his wallet and sunglasses again (and that was *NOT* in my wedding vows).
