2 I have SO dated a few Earnest Hemorrhages in my day, and let me tell just how fucking annoying they are. Always wanting to talk about thier "feelings" or their "plans" for you. "Shut the fuck up, Michael, I have a LARC paper I am trying to write!" Glad to get that off my chest.

6 Always do sober what you said you'd do drunk. That will teach you to keep your mouth shut. Ernest Hemingway (1899 - 1961)
