-> '''Lord Ickenham:''' Have you considered what would have happened if Myra had married [[TheScrooge The]] [[UpperClassTwit Duke]] of [[{{Jerkass}} Dunstable's]] nephew? You would never have got Dunstable out of your hair. A christmas present would have been expected yearly. You would have had to lunch with him, dine with him, be constantly in his society. He [[TheThingThatWouldNotLeave would have come over to New York to spend long visits with you]]. The children, if any, would have had to learn to call him "Uncle Alaric". I think you've been extraordinary lucky, Jimmy. Imagine a life with Dunstable like a sort of Siamese twin.

->For my part, my main [[HPLovecraft Lovecraft]] and [[ConanTheBarbarian Conan]] periods came in late 2004, early 2005.. In hindsight, the period is more remembered as the lingering tail end of my relationship of the time. Foreshadowing existed in the form of the sheer and bitter acrimony her parents felt towards me. While large parts of my memory, in hindsight, reveal flaws in my actions I was unaware of at the time, this period is unusual in that, in hindsight, her parents were actually crueler, more selfish, and more hateful than I gave them credit for. My capacity for grudges is often more limited than I let on, but they manage the remarkable feat of, even now, over five years since I last had anything to do with them, being among the most miserable and horrible people I have ever interacted with. I actually have more animosity towards them than I do towards my ex-wife. And this animosity stems entirely from the sheer hatred they directed towards me in this period. In hindsight, the staggering black hole of anger they positioned in my life forms a better explanation for my fondness for stories about [[CosmicHorror unspeakable cosmic evil]] than anything else.
