One of my websites gets a fair amount of search engine traffic through the phrase “you suck.” That kinda thing can give you a complex after awhile. My “little” town here, San Luis Obispo, used to be a serious Mardi Gras destination up until a couple years ago. The merry makers got their merry on a little too hard, and ever since, the cops have been out in force on Fat Tuesday. Oh, well.
