Okay... So when I was a little younger I would frequently meet up with friends and go out and do stupid shit! Well, not entirely stupid, just misguided by my current standards. For example I remember doing and Acid Drop from the top of one of the giant 1 story green hydro boxes. This resulted in my brand new deck snapping in half and taking a chunk of my elbow along with it not to mention my brain was shaken quite ferociously. AT THE TIME, it was very cool! Rolling around on the ground and puking from the sheer intensity of the pain. Awesome! Shitty about my board, but very cool 'cause I caught some wicked air and it felt like I was hanging there forever... Now well now if I saw some misguided kid climbing up a hydro box with his skateboard in hand, I'd shake my head and wait for the inevitable fall from grace and subsequent writhing to take place. (That rhymed unintentionally). It would give me a moment or two of sadistic pleasure, the kind that causes your lips to tighten into that wicked little half smile we all hide. Is that wrong? I also remember going to a fair with a group of friends where they had a food pavilion. There we discovered the most heinous substance known to man. Jalapeno Horseradish sauce! The WARNING in big red letters on the jar was merely teasing us and practically forced us to tempt our fate and taste buds My buddy Jeff looked like he had been maced! Tears and drool running down his red face Excellent!!! and good for an hour long laughing fit only interrupted periodically to ingest more of the angry topping!
NOW Now I see people on my TV, virtually talentless people, on my TV, doing the same stupid shit I used to do as a younger man, making millions of dollars and being raised to a level of celebrity previously reserved for Oscar Winners and Professional Athletes. Is it really a special trick to eat the yellow snow? Really? Why am I still laughing at the same fart jokes and videos of fat guys falling off ladders? Why is it morbidly hysterical to see some guy get whacked in the crotch by a 5 year old with a fun bat? Why cant I pull myself away from an hour long show dedicated to the misery and hard ship of people stranded on a desert island, where a reward is nothing more than a bar of soap or a communal toothbrush??? Thats bent! Were all screwed, and it makes my brain hurt! Im taking a nap before my shows start
