May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

When you assume, you make an ass of you and me.

Oh, that one totally makes me stabby.

One of my friends had a crazy boss who used to lecture the staff about how, "Whenever you point a finger of blame at someone else, always remember you've got four more fingers pointing at yourself." Which is simultaneously homicide-inducingly irritating, factually wrong (really? Your thumb is pointing back at you? What kind of freak are you?), and in his case incredibly hypocritical since he was also constantly flying into rages of blaming everyone on the planet but himself for his crappy business.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I always thought it was meant more along the lines of "the reason will have meaning," at some point.

Yeah, I think that's even worse. I don't think anyone ever says, "My son died, but now I understand it was to teach me {whatever, I can't even finish the sentence}..."

You know what platitude is true, though? Bacon makes everything better. Tonight's example? Half-assed corn chowder. I am so much better at half-assed soups than almost any other food category.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

"Whenever you point a finger of blame at someone else, always remember you've got four more fingers pointing at yourself." Which is simultaneously homicide-inducingly irritating, factually wrong (really? Your thumb is pointing back at you? What kind of freak are you?)

Did anyone else just point their finger to see what the thumb on that hand did?

Because books.

Now I want bacon.

Yeah, I think that's even worse. I don't think anyone ever says, "My son died, but now I understand it was to teach me {whatever, I can't even finish the sentence}..."

I think it's absolutely awful, but I've known people who absolutely meant it that way.

I taught that to my family recently! Except with three fingers, because I'm not an idiot. But I was doing it as a joke.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

"Whenever you point a finger of blame at someone else, always remember you've got four more fingers pointing at yourself."

Yeah, that makes no sense. If that were true, it wouldn't make any sense for anyone to blame anyone else for anything.

Just in my head.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

God will never give you anything you can't handle.

FUCK YOU.

I blame all of you for almost everything. Or Tino.

Well, at least ita knows the correct response.
