Stuff like this absolutely infuriates me. It always has. I wonder if that’s somehow evidence of my insanity. I don’t think I’m insane. It’s just that these things strike me as inane and cliché. I’m not against love or profound emotional feelings. I’m just against fucking bullshit. Love and romance are incredibly sacred to me, and to think that the intricacies of such things can be summarized in fucking text on the internet enrages me. Even if it can be written on the internet, it fucking shouldn’t be. It trivializes everything.
I think one of the biggest flaws of social communication is trends. We follow them for absolutely no reason other than the fact that other people do. It’s a fucking gut-wrenching experience when someone breaks up with you and, rather than telling you the real reason, they spout out some fucking bullshit nonsense they heard in a movie or read in a book, because it sounds good and because other people do it. Once I dated this girl who, every time I would say “I’m sorry,” regardless of what it was for, she would say “I am too.” — that’s the kind of shit I’m talking about. She didn’t actually feel sorry 99% of the time, she just said it because she had heard it in movies and it sounded fucking neat to her. Each experience we have is completely unique, and dealing with those experiences with cookie-cutter responses we learned from popular trends makes a fucking mockery out of the whole thing. If you love someone but you can’t be with them any longer because, for example, they’re crass and always out partying, say that to them. Say “I’m sorry, it’s just that you’re always out with your friends instead of spending time with me, and you’re always really obnoxious and it kind of makes me uncomfortable.” Don’t say some fucking vague speech you learned and rehearsed from a Zooey Deschanel movie.

I was standing outside of a coffeehouse today
and I heard two people talking, and one of them said to the other, “Yeah man, life’s too short to smoke bad weed” and then took a long drag of his cigarette. And then I said “Life’s too short to ride most theme park rides.”

The only differences between men and women are the things that sit on their chests and their lap.
For instance, men usually have Basset Hounds on their laps, and women are more partial to Pomeranians.

I wanna be a rock superstar.
To live large. A big house, five cars. To be in charge.
But mainly I just wanted heated tiles in the bathroom.

So, I decided to cover “Electrocution” by Bill Fox (one of my favorite songs). Let me know what you think!
I wanna be a billionaire so fuckin’ bad. Buy all the things I never had.
Listen, Travie McCoy, you need to calm the fuck down. I want a new car and an endless supply of cigarettes, and THAT’s more realistic than becoming a billionaire, but just as unlikely to happen. So shut the fuck up and get over it.
You can’t always get what you want. But if you try sometimes, you just might find you get what you need.
