“Have an unforgetful night of pleasure with your girlfriend!”
Did my girlfriend have a good time? Did I?
Well, Michael, it does say UNforgetful.
As for the other one . . . “satisfactory” is what we’re aspiring to in our sexual encounters these days? Along these lines, one of my colleagues, who teaches Human Sexuality, said to me one day, “I hope they’re doing it better than they are writing about it.”
Re “unforgetful night of pleasure”: This is pitched to the Boomers, no? They’re tanked up on Viagra, but will they remember things in the morning?
I really DO have work to do, so I’ll be going now . . .
“Was it satisfactory for you, sweetheart?”
