Person in crowd: I need to masturbate!
BC: A heh heh. Yes, we saw that the young Swedish male masturbates three times a day. Because of all the beautiful women! There’s so many beautiful women in Sweden, it’s just...the men are constantly aroused. Which is why all the men in Swedish have such good haircuts. Lots of.... Everyone - every male in Sweden looks like he’s in Interpol, the band. Right? Everyone’s got a new wave haircut. Even the president. Alright, anyway, I’ll shut the fuck up, thank you for listening.
