Every kid needs a drinking uncle. A drinking uncle may be an embarrassment to the rest of the family, but he's usually the one you can count on to tell you the things you really need to know. Some weeks back, I suddenly remembered something my drinking uncle told me when I was a kid. My drinking uncle said, "Lad, don't ever get into a pissing contest with a skunk."

That's why I don't argue with Martin Gibson anymore.
