Beaters and cringers

Dickens says people are either ' beaters or cringers '. This may sound simplistic , but it can serve as a useful rule of thumb. Notice how two ' beaters ' can never get along , and that in a marriage , one person is inevitably the beater and the other is the 'cringer' .

I've often often wondered which category I belong to , and I've noticed that my behavior has been woefully ' cringey '- though I 'm actually a beater . This probably doesn't make sense , but life seldom does.
