yeah. replace all of the strange flag combinations with a simple
"block log all" rule.

get basic firewall functionality working first, then add the fancy
stuff back one rule at a time & test to see what breaks.

and when adding the above rules, think about whether you really
want "quick". i'm amazed that any TCP gets through that ruleset
in either direction.
