Well, Kozel, sometimes I think you're a dick - pure or otherwise. Hopefully in your short life you've used your dick for pure purposes.

I never thought to use that as a guilt trip but there we go. I will hold on to this for that one day in the future.

When your narcisistic bitch mother, fueled by her hatred of dogs and your dead father, who she slandered to your face on the day of his funeral, tries to sabatoge your marraige by attempting to manipulate your wife behind your back, it becomes pretty easy to not want to talk to her anymore.
