We weren’t entirely certain how long Semen “Week” could possibly last; we simply had two strips, two data points, which was enough to draw a line.

Especially if you’re in the wrong, but even if you think you’re right.
Even if you are right.
I’m telling you this because I’m perpetually right and I still can’t win with this fucker. I am the monk, and he is the scorpion. I like to tell it that way because it makes my laziness and banality seem like virtues.
