When you have a nemesis, you seek revenge via whatever means you can - according to Patrick Lenton, that's queer culture.

Patrick Lenton is a writer and author based in Sydney. He is the Editor of Junkee, and has published a book of short stories called A Man Made Entirely of Bats and a book of essays called Uncle Hercules and Other Lies.
