What kind of tude is that... that's something a hooker would say...
going through life with a price on their butt. The only difference
between lobster and burger with your attitude is not what you are, just
negotiating the price.

Only thing ordering the most expensive things on the menu would get
from a first date with me is not getting asked out a second time. In
fact your willingness to sell your tail for a lobster tail wouldn't get
you anywhere either... just means you're so easy I'd probably catch
something.
