Agreed, that was fucking shitty. Inexplicably shitty. ---

I figured he was drunk, but that’s just an excuse, not an explanation. ---

As an aside, I question what quality of marriage you can actually have if you refer to women as ‘‘skirts.’’ What is this, the 1800s? ---

It’s takes a very special sort of asshole to threadshit on a widower like that. **Little Pig** picked a very appropriate username, except, of course, it’s insulting to pigs to be associated with the son of a bitch. ---
