Cause Frick You

(phrase) "Cause Frick You"

A phrase coined by The Fellas, typically used to explain something arbitrary, unjustified, or just plain unfair — often when there’s no logical explanation, or when someone’s flexing authority without reason. It’s the go-to response for glitches, nonsense rules, or petty power moves, usually said with a heavy dose of sarcasm and comedic flair.
Examples:
Something went wrong. Please try again later — cause frick you.”
“You can’t park here, sir.”
“Why not?”
“Cause frick you.”

“Wait, why are we banned from the server?”
“Cause frick you, apparently.”

“Why does this app randomly crash every time I open it?”
“Cause frick you, that’s why.”

“I did all my CMU but it did nothing to my grade — cause frick you.”

Cause and effect

I also don't have to accept your framing of the situation as a matter of fault vs blame and I don't have to let you control my fucking mind. If you do not pay for my work in accordance with my 5th amendment rights and you don't give my right not to associate with people who are actively stalking and harassing me then I'm going to revoke your daughter's right to life. Give me MY rights and do it now or I will take your kids.
Hym "It's not a matter of fault, it's a matter of cause and effect. And I've proven the targeted harassment is both real and happening to me and I'm not going to let you using me as a test case so you can claim that doing this doesn't get your kids murdered. But YOU will let a butthole molested mental retard uses YOU as a sentient pocket-pussy so HE can claim he's better than me. So there's that. I don't have to let you do thus and get away with it."

I don't see how this isn't intended to do explicitly that.
Hym "I mean, if the lawyers need to sign as a guarantee that the filing isn't being used to Harass, Cause Unnecessary Delay, or Increase The Cost of Litigation then why am I being harassed? Why is me getting paid being unnecessarily delayed? And I don't really care about the cost of litigation but I did have to sit here with fluid in my brain for months. It's still there! Less now. I don't feel like my cognition is impaired as much. But I can still hear it slamming against the back of my ear drum... So, you're saying they can't do it but they're doing it. Exactly what this is intended to do. Harass, Cause Unnecessary Delay, or Increase The Cost of Litigation. And avoid having to bring me my money."
