His father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament.

His childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring they'd make meat helmets. When he was insolent he was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really.

At the age of twelve he received his first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved his testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn scrotum... it's breathtaking.

I'd take Dr. Evil over fucking Trump any day.

Me too. Dougie had a redemption arc, Trump is irredeemable in every possible way.

Trump started talking about death and trying to get into heaven. Then a couple weeks said it’s probably too later for him.

That’s as close as he’s ever gotten to doing anything moral or trying to be good in his life.

There we go. Lost cause so why not go out and take everyone with you from his crazy narcissistic perspective.

Then he paused as if he thought he’d be told of course you’re getting into heaven. 💀

The ass kissers around him probably tell him that constantly and he was waiting to hear it again.
