Yeah but he brought attention to it and cut through the bullshit about it. There are always gonna be dumbasses out there but I'll bet somebody watched this and their mind was set just that much more free by it.
Motherfucker is a way more satisfying word anyway. Both to hear it and to say it.
And to be it.
Why does he keep rubbing his nose?
