[@happydayz7857]

Laurie Ann the NKOTB songs weren’t even theirs though, for the most part they ‘borrowed’ songs from 60’s and 70’s black groups and didn’t pay the songwriters. They assumed no one would notice I guess.

I first saw this on TV when I was in High School and have been quoting it for almost twenty years: -Calling canes a "vanity cane" -Saying "In hindsight . . . No. I shouldn't have (extremely obvious bad decision)" -Telling a friend who keeps dying in a video game "It's like your trying to bowl a spare. Why not bowl a strike?" -And, of course, singing "Baby, I wish you were my baby." Boy bands were huge back then and this was the perfect mockery.
