5. "Here's looking at you, kid." CASABLANCA (1942)

ARRRRRRRGGGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why the FUCK can't I write!?! The ideas are all there in my head, but when I try to get them down on the screen, NOTHING!

This is really pissing me right the hell off!

I'm about to drill holes in my head to let the words out.

Tucker Carlson is an imbecile.

He just actually said "Bill Gates would never have founded Microsoft had he had tenure."

Gates was a college drop-out, not an instructor.

"The Soviet Union never produced anything worth having because, essentially everyone had tenure."

Right. Stalin tried to fire people, but darn that tenure system!

He's arguing with Max Kellerman. Oh, for a hand grenade...
