POOR IMPULSE CONTROL

Edit: this is a reference to Snow Crash in a similar situation.

I have poor impulse control. I've never raped anyone, because I've never wanted to rape anyone. That's not an impulse. It's the violent crime of an unrepentant sociopath, and if you need impulse control to avoid it, you're the problem.

Not you "you." I know what you meant.

To paraphrase Penn Jillette, I rape as many people as I want every single day. And that number is zero.

That's exactly the quote I was thinking of when I wrote that comment, I just didn't give him credit.
