I kid you not. When I describe orange mans actions to my husband, I usually compare him to a 6 yo. His repeated use of "If I DON'T GET WHAT I WANT, I'M TAKING MY BALL AND GOING HOME!" tactic is what you hear at the playground and in 1st grade! He's not used this tactic as blatelant and often as he has with this "WALL TANTRUM". If I was Nancy or Chuck, I'd be laughing my ass off right in his face.
