I'm currently in hell, a phrase which here means "reading a romance novel in which the only conflict is an issue that could be resolved in 15 seconds if the protagonists just used their words."

"i wish i could exfoliate my brain" you can. by reading things that challenge you.

Far worse, in my opinion, than the famous “he wouldn’t fucking say that” is “he WOULD fucking say that, as part of his facade, but you seem to think he would mean it genuinely”
