If I had treated my grandfather like that when I was 10, where my father could see me do it, they would never have found my body, and I would have deserved it. I'm just saying.

This probably explains why Damian comes as close as he can come to being tolerable (which is not that close, IMO) when he appears in Nightwing.

>Jason has embraced the role of asshole older brother with a passion.
Hey, when you've got a niche...
