“I know. What I’m saying, I guess, in a really long, round

the end? At least if you don’t care if you’re on the receiving

end of being slammed by assholes out there? I know there are

a great many, but I also know there are a ton of good people

‘fuck it’ and moved on, would that really be the worst thing
