All’s fair in love and war
All’s fair in love and war if you’re a douche bag.
Let’s break this down:
All’s fair in love:
- In the words of Ronny (Nicolas Cage) in Moonstruck: “Loretta, I love you. Not like they told you love is, and I didn’t know this either, but love don’t make things nice, it ruins everything! It breaks your heart, it makes things a mess. We aren’t here to make things perfect. Snowflakes are perfect, stars are perfect. Not us, not us. We are here to ruin ourselves and…and to break our hearts and love the wrong people and…and die! I mean the storybooks are bullshit!
All’s fair in war:
- Sure, if you’re a republican or a tea bagger.
My spin on this cliché: War of the Roses
I love roses.
I hate war.
Life isn’t fair.
Love means war.
I am not a douche bag, but I used one once.
