I mean, do it like the gladiator: "he likes wheats for their slow movement in the wind and the feel of their fine fibers on the fingertips when running a hand through them, lost in thought."

Ah, well that is nice and all. I can do few of those tomorrow. Although it will take more effort.

Also that movie would have been so much less without those parts.

Reading his name would trigger it. Thinking of him would trigger it. No other circumstances would trigger it- it was strictly related to the concept of Bill Clinton entering the conscious mind.

Yeah, I really have no idea what I mean either. I suppose it could say inviting, alluring or appealing shape, something like that. Goes along the same lines in a way.

Minor shame there is no tag that would result in 'hates X for Y' (if this has changed, I apologize.  It has been awhile since I dived into the RAWs).
