It's a fantastic song!
I've walked fucking miles and miles this last week which I reckon has got to be good training.

You know how you can tell it's not a good song? Cos it's by fucking Aerosmith
Good work there - I've been ill and haven't broken into so much as a jog for 9 days. At this point in time you are almost certainly fitter than me, along with most of the adult population of the world.

Also "Make It" is an excellent song

Luckily for you I consider the phrase "the exception that proves the rule" to be self-contradictory bollocks
so I shall retort, in the style of my accuser, "No it isn't. It is fucking shit."

Dream On is quite good though

"the exception that proves the rule" is not self contradictory
it's just most people don't understand what it actually means.

I am genuinely willing to learn here
Please elaborate

Okay, a good example would be a sign saying "Parking here is free on Sundays"
the implication being that other than on Sundays the parking is not free. Therefore pointing out the exception (free parking on sunday) proves the rule (you must pay for parking at other times).

So it's a perfectly valid phrase, but it's not appropriate to many situations and so is usually used incorrectly.

That actually makes perfect sense
Thank you
