Oh, there goes Mr. Humbug, there goes Mr. Grim
If they gave a prize for bein' mean, the winner would be him
Oh, Scroogey loves his money cause he thinks it gives him power

Though All Men Do Despise Us.
Motto of House Codd, A Song of Ice and Fire.
Muggle Prime Minster: Now see here Fudge - you've got to do something! It's your responsibility as Minster for Magic!
Cornelius Fudge: My dear Prime Minster, you can't honestly think I'm still Minster for Magic after all this? I was sacked three days ago! The whole wizarding community has been screaming for my resignation for a fortnight. I've never seen them so united in my whole term of office!

"If it is true that the Spanish Empire is the largest the globe has ever seen—and that is true—it is also true that we are the least welcome in more of the places that our flag flies than any empire before us."
"He's the kind of man I wouldn't roll with if his cock was dipped in gold and he gave it to me after for a doorstop." It was an arresting image.
"I've been struggling to find anyone who might say something pleasant about him," I said. "When he dies, it's likely to be lonely at the graveside."
"Shouldn't have thought so. Lots of people will show up just to make sure that he's dead."
"They offer dancing shoes for such occasions, I believe."

Tabletop Games
None are so universally reviled as the Giovanni clan; no other branch of Caine's tree is so loathed on such a visceral, instinctive level. For all that they scoff at mortal mores, still the Kindred have absorbed more of the kine's attitudes than they admit: incest, necrophilia, patricide - the Giovanni are guilty of all these and more, and the Kindred recoil from them like dinner guests from a plate of maggots.

Do you know how evil you have to be to have the Swiss investigate you? ...Someone needs to stop him before he acquires biological weaponry.
—Drew Magary on Sepp Blatter
on Sepp BlatterLance Armstrong oversaw a sophisticated doping operation that lorded over an entire sport for the better part of a decade. And I guess that's bad. But I promise you, if he had overseen such a gigantic cheating operation and been NICE about it, people wouldn't want him thrown into a stockade as they do now. They might have even let it slide, what with the whole ball cancer angle. And he should have known that...And we have a thin-skinned national media that takes being lied to oh so very personally. You don't want to humiliate self-loathing media folks like that. They'll drone on for AGES about how you duped them, and then they'll hound you to the gates of Hell for daring to make them look stupid.
—Drew Magary, "Lance Armstrong's Biggest Crime Was Being an Asshole"
, "Lance Armstrong's Biggest Crime Was Being an Asshole"Kroenke is absolutely a terrible smear of dogshit across our collective sidewalks for a litany of reasons: marrying his WalMart wealth yet preening as a self-made man, sticking St. Louis with a tax bill on their old stadium that they’ll be paying into 2021, and working LA for $100MM in tax breaks on his new cock ring of a stadium despite promising “no public money.” Yeah, our teachers are underpaid but you go ahead and skim the tax money you don’t even need...He’s passively odious and a weak pervert in a rumpled raincoat. He sports a pederast’s mustache and mirrored shades because his hatchet face drives people to hateful acts of madness. His soccer club actively derides and loathes him. He does not want the headlines nor the spotlight, because he has enough instinct to know that roaches should fear the light. He eats and breaths and counts his money in the dark like one of those cave-dwelling fish with no eyes.
