Or maybe not the opposite since the opposite of mad is happy or calm or something, I--oh God, no. I'm not doing this. What am I even talking about? Jesus Christ. I don't know what I'm trying to say. What the fuck is my problem? It's not like this should be hard!

Look, I'm done. I'm not talking about this anymore. Just don't do anything that might help that asshole use you. I don't even care about the consequences.
