 Ah, something to be learned about calling your buddy a "worthless shit"
(lol, I know what you mean though).  It's not possible to un-allie, what
he's doing though is getting even for the compliment paid, I would probably
do the same. He's force firing his units on yours, targetting your units and
holding down the Ctrl key, they will keep firing until unit destroyed. You
can force fire at any unit or building, friend or foe and can also force
fire onto a spot on the map, useful if you want to keep an enemy at bay
across a bridge or something (try force firing a nuke cannon or scud
launcher to see).

 Not a good situation to be in when playing multiplayer. Be nice to your
buddy even if he sucks.
