All men are evil, that’s what I was talking to my father…
““All men are evil, that’s what I was talking to my father about. What did he say? Fuck ‘em. Really? Yeah. At least he answered you. I got the feeling that he thinks it’s my problem now. Makes you wonder why he didn’t burn that on one of the tablets. ‘HERE, MOSES, HERE’S THE TEN COMMANDMENTS, AND HERE’S AN EXTRA ONE THAT SAYS FUCK ‘EM.’ He doesn’t sound like that.””
