me

Yeah, I get drunk about one a year and today happens to be the day.. Sfoster is giving me shit. Sean Omaley is fighting in the ufc and I'v about to finish this bottle of wine. not to mentiont hat my comptuer is rendering up a storm. My wife is watering her plants and my step son is helping her. Fuck it. Life is what it is. Sean Foster is probalby dealing with his own shit so I'm not going to hold anything against him. He acts like a pricks sometime but so what? Don't we all. As for me. I'll be retiring in a couple of yhear and I don't have a clue what my life has been about. sure I raised c couple of kids and freaked out more than a few women along the eay but maybe that's the point. Life is life. We shouldn't try to make sense of it. I guess I'm jus thankful to have a roof over my head when so many others don't. Why is life so hard. I don't know. It just is. I grew up thinking we could ne whatever we wanted to me. Man was I wrong. We are born. We grow up then we find a job to pay the bills. The ones we admire are just the lucky ones. Brad pitt. Kathy Bateman, Meryl Streep.. All very talented. All very luck.

Time for a drive to the liquor store for anothe bottle.. man I hope the cops don't stop me or I'll be posting from jail for a while.;;;

These guys will do the driving for you

IT is right I wasn't suggesting your work is crap, that analogy is from a real guy back in college i knew that would say paranoid shit like how you can't flush stuff down a toilet. so that's where it came from, based on someone else.

I get it if you're going through a bad time, this year was a really rough one, I paid $3,200 for a puppy and then accidentally killed it in less than a year. I'm a total fuck up if that makes you feel any better.

I think we are wired biologically to seek a purpose in life bc it makes us more amibitious and successful but it's just a trick of evolution.
The only 'purpose' is to propogate. Anyway that's just one fuck up's opinion.

Also for the sake of the analogy - lol - your scripts would actually be precious valuable drugs, and its just that they are surrounded by so much shit (massive massive massive amounts of data on the internet) that its not worth wading through all the shit just to try hopefully maybe find some drugs in a septic tank.

Looking back at your life is always kind of a disturbing experience, past a certain age. Even if you got everything right, I think we all feel to some degree that we misunderstood how long this thing was supposed to be, and it's mysteriously turned out to be simultaneously much longer and shorter than we had imagined. Those days that seemed like they would never end, and the years that seemed to go by in a blink.

Sean's personality, (like my own) can be a bit abrasive at times. I remember my first encounter with him, when he dismissed my greatest lifetime achievement with a snarky GIF. A few years later though, we're friends and get along fine. I'd describe his mentality as "a healthy skepticism of internet randos" which is what we all are to each other until proven otherwise. It's a better use of time to earn mutual respect than it is to escalate small conflicts, that's my 2c. I think both of you are good people, and will probably get along eventually.

I'll second Sean's "don't drive drunk, get a driver". Getting a DUI is way more hassle than it is ever worth.

Here's the most important advice though. When you feel yourself about to pass out. Quickly drink a glass of water before doing so. lol,

See, he likes your script. We're all in this same boat, of producing good material, that just gets drowned out by the sheer volume of the internet.

I know, but sometimes when people are down, it's good to just let them vent a bit. James is right, life is pretty hard, and sometimes, it helps to just acknowledge that, and let the depression dissipate.

But since you insist on elevating the mood, here's a tonal palate cleanser. It always reminds me of the old garage band days, hauling cheap solid state amps over to a friends house to try and hammer out a version of "War Pigs" or "Ramble on"


For those unfamiliar with Aussie slang, "smoko" means "smoke break"
 
On the general topic of self-contempt, and apropos of nothing:

A while back I was sitting in my regular 0-8 game with the regular gang, an eclectic mix of older and younger guys and gals, in my regular casino poker room, and I made a pretty funny joke, in the, I suppose, funny-because-it's-true category. We had overheard someone, at an adjacent table, say, "I have low self esteem."

"I wish I had low self esteem, " I said. It was an odd thing to say, and everyone looked at me. I took a beat and, sadly, explained, "I have no self esteem." This got a pretty good laugh.

Parenthetically, I got another one, the week before, when Joe ordered a coffee, declining cream, saying, "I like my coffee like I like my woman."

"I'll have a big-ass coffee too," I said.

anyway :)

I'm not drunk now but I have started smoking cigarettes again. 5 good years of no smokey treats then BAM "smoke up Johnny!"

Yeah, life is what it is. One minute you think you're having a lively conversation with someone who you respect and you think respects you, the next minute that person lashes out at you with a verbal assault which suggests you're a monster and they all but wish you were dead... I understand, people have good days and bad, but that's where apologies come in.... anyway, society has changed. There's a definite 'us against them' attitude. That being what it is, it's still unsettling when you witness someone who removes their mask and shows the core of who they really are, and it is completely opposite of what you thought. We all need to be careful these days. Being judged, condemned, then cancelled is a real thing. There is no more room for personal opinions. Now THAT is a catastrophe.

On the lighter side of the news, my son suggested I read Anthem by Ayn Rand. He says it will remind me of George Lucas's movie THX1138. Right now I'm finishing up a Dean Koontz novel then onto Anthem! So many books and so little time :)
