Anya: What would I have to do?
D’Hoffryn: What you do best. Help wronged women punish evil men.

I like this approach: https://xkcd.com/150/

I won’t have made it through the day until it hits midnight or the thermostat drops below 25° C, whichever is soonest.

Probably not the place for it but I shall point out that the 00s were going swimmingly until the cunts at Goldman Sachs and others of a similar bent made a shedload of cash out of turning the housing market into a massive casino and then stuck taxpayers the world over with the bill in the '08 crash and the global economy has been pretty much fucked ever since.

Business People: Waaaaaah! Throws rattle out of pram.

(That’s enough endless cycle - ed.)
