I thought I  had been in 114679 "Constant as the Northern Star".
Nothing untoward in that so  far as I know.

But I have to admit I have an aversion to bossy females. Most men do.
It's as irritating as hell to have someone who has decided that they know
what's best for you to be constantly 'advising' you that you ought to do 
this, that or the other, even if it is well meant. It's your mother Mk II, and
you left home to get away from Mk I.

In the old days of course, there was the Scold's Bridle.....
