Somewhat like prowling, however solely for the purpose of brown-nosing and climbing the corporate ladder.

Any overly analytical statement on the subject of love made by the poor fool caught in romance, who in attempting to defend his manhood and independence against the chains of social norms and tradition through frequent rhetorical musings (Facebook anyone?), still fails to obscure the sentiment leaking from his big mushy heart, as his knightly actions (couples pic for profile image?) betray the yearnings of a hopeless, besotted, romantic soul.
Can you believe Jeff bought his girlfriend a 3 carat ring after last week's Powellism? He was pretty insistent that marriage in secular society was the last vestige of mankind's domination over women. Interesting his latest tweets don't mention he's getting hitched.
