I'm also raising about Piers Morgan's wife and how she needs a break because he's a retard piece of shit.
Hym "No Piers. What's actually happening here you are collectivizing to steal my work and I'm going to kill someone's kids if I don't get to retire before everyone else and you don't give me the credit I deserve and pay me. I have a right to do what I'm doing here and you don't have a right to profit in my stead. Not all Urban Dictionary posts are created equal. But, until then, I'll be raising awareness about how Piers Morgan's wife needs to take breaks to go and get schlonged by a fat cock because marriage is just the ancillary fate you are condemned to is you cock is fat."

I don't get it --- I clearly explain to people about my Laurel and Hardy reasoning whenever they object/protest about my choices of everyday actions, but they always just roll their eyes at my innocent "Well, that's how 'The Duo' always performed this type of task in their films" excuse.
