Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Conclusion: people who read can still be assholes. Assholes in the name of Jesus.
I love this line. Turns out it's not that hard to be an asshole.
And now my brain has gone to an earworm I haven't indulged in a long long time: Pablo Picasso was never called an asshole.

Since I never head this I'm going to do something I'll probably regret and google that. I presume part of it makes fun of the fact that most of the women in his life did in fact consider him an asshole? "Asshole" and "Genius" unfortunately not being incompatible.

I've been earwormed all day long with a silly nonsense Monty Python song:
I've got two legs / From my hips to the ground / And when I move them / They walk around / And when I lift them / They climb the stairs / And when I shave them / They ain't got hairs
