I wasn't gonna do it. I was not going to turn the channel to HBO. Hell I was going to cancel HBO cos its boring and I'm paying for shit TV. Yet there I was watching the stupid monologue of this egotistical asshole again.Then I heard Kellyass Condick was going to be on and I gagged a little and sat there. I think I need a psych. Why would I continue to abuse my brain this way? Sure I've been watching Bill for 20+years and its habit...OMG now I understand what a cult is !
