Hmmm....

Manipulators
Regulators
Bait & Switch
Selective Rejection
Deferred Gratification
Direct Oversight

All will and have killed people.

They take you down to their level...

...And beat the hell out of you...

...And give you a guilt trip to show that it was your fault.


I guess....

You gotta take the high road.

And.

Hope against Hope.
