According to Us Magazine, Oscar-winning actor and supreme douche-nozzle Sean Penn has filed for "legal separation with minor children" from his long-suffering wife Robin Wright Penn.

This should come as a shock to no one, these two have been threatening to quit each other's asses for a while now. Perhaps the third time is a the charm. Here's what Us Magazine had to say:

Sean Penn has filed for "legal separation with minor children" from his wife of 13 years, actress Robin Wright Penn.

He filed the papers last Friday, Extra first reported.

Penn, 48, initially filed for divorce in December 2007, but his petition was later dismissed. Three days later, Wright Penn, 43, filed her own paperwork.

But in April 2008, the couple's divorce petition was dismissed at their request.

They attended February's Academy Awards, where Penn won his second Best Actor Oscar for his role as gay rights activist Harvey Milk.

He did not thank Wright Penn — with whom he has two children, Dylan, 18, and Hopper Jack, 15 — while accepting his award.

After the show, he told Oprah Winfrey that his gratitude for his wife was "implicit."

"I wanted to keep things focused on the professional team around this movie," he explained. "Because with Robin comes my mother and my son and my daughter, and half of them will punish me if I mention them."

Just a couple of things on this pr spun b.s. First of all, don't tell me that his gratitude for his wife is implicit, because that's some ass-throttling nonsense right there. There is nothing in a relationship (as far as I am concerned) that is implicit unless it's expressed openly and repeatedly. If my husband won an award and got up and thanked every b*tch on the planet but me, that would be the end of many of the liberties he enjoys, including those that affected his reproductive organs, his appendages, his gastrointestinal abilities and most assuredly, his wallet.
