A song by Tool. The song is often interpreted as being about commercialism. "Not enough, I need more, nothing seems to satisfy...I dont want it, I just need it, to breathe, to feel, to know im alive." This is referring to the way people in modern society let material possessions control their mental states. "Constant over-stimulation numbs me but I would not want it any other way" is referring to the way advertisements have penetrated every last corner of our lives (constant overstimulation) however people do not care because they do indeed attach their well-being to their possessions (but I would not want it any other way). The analogy in the song is indeed about fisting. As the song progresses it gets deeper ("finger/elbow/shoulder deep inside the border line") referring to the slow, gradual transformation society has made to consumerist values. A very good song on a very good CD by a very good band.

The title of the song by Tool is actually one word. The stinkfist analogy "desensitized to everyting, what became of subtlety" can be used to compare the way things were about fifty years ago to the way they are today. The song talks about digging deeper to find a deeper meaning.

It has to be the physical literal meaning gross as that is. "Fingers deeper in the border line, this may hurt a little but its something you'll get used to, Relax" that stuff about overstimulation fits here too.
1) The bass at the beginning of Stinkfist is sweet.
2) Haha, looks like you got a little 3rd base action last night, walking around sporting that stinkfist.
