So, he tells us that "we" aren't implying they are hypocrits, even after he does point and laugh at Sanchez, implying he's a hypocrit, with the phrase, "It never seems to dawn on Sanchez...." This is just another way of saying, what a hypocrit. Robin implies with "it never seems to occur" that Sanchez either lies to himself or is so ideologically blinded, he doesn't realize he's a hypocrit/inconsistent.

Hey you know what? This:

is a bag of shit. You can criticize my friends all you want. I only ask that you actually know what the fuck you're talking about when you do.

You used to be about 20% annoying and 80% interesting. Now you're 95% annoying and 5% interesting. The whole bitch/snit act has taken you over and you've become almost nothing but a pain in the ass.

So: fuck you.
