Let them gloat. We deserve this. This was an act self-immolation, pure and simple. What are people realistically expecting, sympathy and good sportsmanship from the biggest sh*theels on terra firma?

No, sorry, but if you want respect in fight, you gotta fight ... especially when you're actually WINNING THE FIGHT. However, when you surrender midway through the joust and then drop your drawers and spread cheek wider than 50,000 Sahara deserts, you lose any right to complain the next day about waking up with a sore a-hole. Sorry, but true.
