Tell him his incessant blather is drowning out the voices in your head, and you really need to listen so you'll know when you're supposed to go on your next bloody rampage.

I'm at the hairdressers and luckily she is getting her hair washed across the room right now. Her hairdresser even apologized to me. What part of me staring down at my phone and ignoring you don't you understand?
