Sorry, I should have given some perspective.
I heard this on a radio show, when the guest was asked how he was doing. There was a small bit of a pause between "...hellhole and abyss." and "From which there is no escape".
The hosts simply ignored the comment.
I thought it was the funniest damn thing I ever heard, and now I use it frequently. I thought it'd be a good way to start a thread.
So, sorry if y'all think I was hurtin'. I surely am not. I do, very much, appreciate the looking out for my benefit.
Cigars and beers. Abso-frickin'-lutely. In fact, first round is on me.
I only have dog rockets, though. Be warned on that.
