Now have really had it with this

The readers have had my manuscript for six months.
For a long time, I tried really hard to have a good attitude about this. But now I have had it. I do not have a good attitude about this. This sucks.

People out there in the world, readers who are supposed to write reports, why do you take for friggin ever to review a friggin manuscript? If it gets rejected from this press, I could like, not get tenure because this took so damn long ('cause I wouldn't have time to send it to a second press.)

Don't you care about that, oh manuscript readers? Doesn't that matter to you? OK, maybe you do not like my manuscript (if that is the case, you are a fool, because my manuscript is not that bad! fucker.) But even if you do not like it and are a fool--even if you are going to reject it--do you really want me to get fired? Really? I mean, I assume the readers are people who are somewhat sympathetic to the kind of history that I write and were therefore selected by the editor for this task. Do they really want me to lose this job?

In short,
