I'm reading Wuthering Heights for the first time, and homeboy Lockwood just came unannounced and uninvited to Heathcliff's place knowing he dislikes people AND THEN COMPLAINED when people reacted poorly to it and didn't comply to his demands. Like mister, they are not the ones being rude right now.

I looked into adoption once and these days you really might as well just build your own kid. Adoption is so difficult and complicated! It's not like the good old days, when you could just find a random kid on the street in Liverpool, make some vague inquires to see if anyone owned him, then stuff him in your jacket and carry him the three day walk home whilst destroying the fiddle and losing the whip you promised to your biological children, and then you just give him a single name and you're set!
