"I have money."
Into this:
"I am poor and have no money" which is the wrong definition to hyperbole ;)
Ostinato. was, in a word, acting. The stereotype for a glamourous woman/man is to say "babe" to anyone of any gender or age... He was spraying what is advertised as a 'glamourous perfume' and getting into character with it, and necessarily said "babe" to his mum.
Why, spot. do you have such a negative view about everything and see everything as black and white? Ostinato. was just trying out the perfume and wants his girlfriend to wear it by getting it for her for Christmas? Loads of men have an obsession with a woman, a famous woman especially and Ostinato. isn't that much different. Heck, Evolution had/has an obsession with Britney Spears and it doesn;t mean he is gay for liking a woman, isn't that the exact opposite?!
