RETURN TO THE DARK HERE
I am Not an Asshole
I am not an asshole.
That term does not define me accurately.
I'm not saying I'm a sweety pie, or any kind of especially "good" person.
But I'm not an asshole.
A real asshole hits his wife or kids.
Kicks his dog.
Hurts others.
He deliberately degenerates life for people.
He's a god-damned asshole.
I don't give a shit about most people, that's true.
They're a bunch of fucking idiots, primarily.
But I don't hurt them deliberately.
I don't go out of my way to cause others harm of any kind.
I may wish they didn't exist.
But they do exist, and I've learned to live with it.
When I'm asked what I think, I say it.
When I'm not asked what I think, I often say it.
Because I'm generally right.
You'd know this if you really gave my opinion a chance.
But you don't, because you're offended
either by my approach,
Or by being reproached.
You were probably wrong, and that's why I said so.
Not that you'll ever admit it.
You'd rather be wrong and get your way.
You were a dumbass, and I called it so.
Maybe you should try harder next time.
And not just call me an asshole.
You asshole.
