Well, it's about two hours since she's left - on the road to the Bay Area - and I'm two margaritas in. Ugh. This blows. It feels like getting thwacked over the head with a skillet.

Actually, that doesn't do it justice. How craptacular, exactly, will I feel upon waking up tomorrow? Let's dig into the vault. Here, ladies and gentlemen, are your options:

Phil Leotardo from The Sopranos: An obvious choice that's on everyone's brain (buh-dump). My melon's probably gonna feel on par with Phil's after his infant grandchildren inadvertently squashed grandpa's face with the SUV.

Look, my vitriol towards the final episode stands but that scene was classic Sopranos. Horrific and hilarious at the same time - especially when the kid bystander throws-up his mini-mart snack. Goddamit, why couldn't Chase have given his show a proper send-off? ...did I give Nameless a proper send-off? 'Sure hope so. Maybe that's why I'm so pissed at Chase, that asshole.
The toxic-waste guy from Robocop: A defining moment of my childhood, when that guy drove the truck into the factory's giant barrel of toxic waste and got washed out the back with the deluge, then ran screaming to his buddy as his face and fingers melted off. Man, that would suck! When you're 10 years old - or maybe 30 - that's, like, the coolest thing ever.
Munro from The Last of the Mohicans: As if getting his heart carved out of his chest in front of his eyes by an insane Huron Indian twisted and obsessed with revenge weren't enough, he also has to hear the guy's gonna kill his daughters and end his bloodline. D'oh! Talk about kicking a guy while he's down. In other news, not only did I say goodbye to Nameless tonight but I'm stuck in a fricking desert during summer.
Ricardo Montalban in The Naked Gun: He falls to his death from the top of (then) Angel Stadium, then gets flattened by a passing steamroller, then gets more flattened by the USC marching band. Did it really have to be USC? This, the cruelest cut of all.
All of the above.

Back to margarita. Please support your choice with a detailed explanation.
