Over here, a popular bumper sticker of some years ago was, "Don't follow me - I'm lost, too."

A friend of mine had a similar one on his car - "If I follow you home will you keep me?".

But, Jackie. Ænigma is just so much more je ne sais quoi! It fits her better.

Besides, if you feed Ænigma Enigma she buys it; if you feed her Ænigma she spits back [nihilism].
