Thanks, Vic. Yes, indeed, "what exactly" could be substituted for "what the hell" for even more emphasis :-)

Many meanings of the word stuff are not in the dictionary. And this is where you as dictionary girl fall short.

I didn't mean the same 'you' in 'you don't do that sort of thing' and the you of 'what are you doing?' -- I meant the first 'you' to be more in the sense of 'one doesn't do..' But the tone of the piece isn't articulate; it's angry... The last phrase is something like 'you're wretched', 'or 'you're a miserable wretch'. The middle stuff must be art. OK: 'You're a poor bastard, to hell with you, how long do you want to go on hurting me with (those genitalia of yours). You're a miserable wretch.'

sorry, baby crying constantly --- the 'genitalia' is probably girlfriends of course as others suggest rightly.

: you did not get the meaning correctly. I have to compliment you. Not many people here have the balls to admitt they did not get something right. They generally believe in dictionaries and blame the messenger.
