SAINT MAYBE PISSES ME OFF

WHY would you commit suicide because of something your brother said and NOT EVEN CHECK TO SEE IT'S TRUE, Danny? Don't you TRUST YOUR WIFE? YOU effin' MARRIED HER so be a man and TALK TO HER before making a stupid decision like that and affecting everyone's lives FOREVER!

AND YOU, WIFE, I don't believe your cover story about shoplifting. WHO SHOPLIFTS EVERY DAY? Wouldn't that be a TAD bit suspicious? HM? I think people would figure out it wasn't just a coincidence eventually. And it definitely wasn't Danny's baby. It WASN'T PREMATURE! YOU HAD ONLY BEEN MARRIED SEVEN MONTHS. And I'm pretty sure you're a gold digger.

And YOU, REVEREND. WHAT THE HELL? You can't make up these stupid rules because you feel like it. I mean like, lalallaaaa I think I'll ban caffeine and sugar today! Whoooops shouldn't have done that! Too late now! I think tomorrow I'll ruin an innocent boy's life by telling them I'm a FREAKING SIGN FROM GOD. To do what? Oh, just discontinue your education and give up your girlfriend, your youth, a good job, sugar, caffeine, and any future friends. That's like me telling someone that God told them to go steal a hot tub and OH BY THE WAY I'M GOD'S MESSENGER YAY SO DO IT. Talk about ABUSE OF POWER. And then you try and FORCE Ian to become a pastor too? Like WTF guy, he's a full grown man, you can't force him to do anything! HAVE YOU NOT DONE ENOUGH TO HIM?

AND YOU IAN. WHY WOULD YOU BELIEVE THE REVEREND WAS A SIGN OF GOD? WAIT FOR AN ACTUAL SIGN. And also it wasn't your fault. I mean, yes, you triggered it, but you were young and you didn't know he would react so STUPIDLY. 

I FINALLY LEGITIMATELY HATE A BOOK.
