If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all … it’s better to lash out unexpectedly.
Father knows best … but Mother is more manipulative.
Jesus loves you … but he’s the only one, you sanctimonious shit.
First comes love, then comes marriage, then comes the baby in the baby carriage … unless you’re gay or barren.
Don’t talk to strangers … unless you’re drunk at a bar and he’s got a nice ass.
In 1400 and 92, Columbus sailed the ocean blue … bringing with him slavery and disease.
