Misery Chain 

A “Misery Chain” describes the "endless cycle" of bad parenting.

"Fucked up parents" create "fucked up kids" who grow up to have more fucked up kids of their own, which keeps the Misery Chain going on and on into the future.

"Misery Chains" are often created by selfish or stupid people with no insight or sense of ethics: playboys, players, skanks, sluts, floozies, druggies, crack heads, dark friends, beach trolls, hill trolls, city trolls and trolls in general.

Heather Chandler: “Fuck me gently with a chainsaw. Do I look like Mother Theresa?”
Dylan: "Hey Nick can I borrow your car once its out of the shop?"
"Fuck me gently with a chainsaw. You crashed it just last week!"
