Selfish Help
Another potential project I am thinking of arises from my loathing of all self help gurus.Honestl;y - Dr. Phil is some fat dumbass who can''t stop eating twinkies. Do you really think it's a good idea to take his advice? Plus, the man can't get through an interview without a trail of saliva running down his chin as he asks whether or not the guest spanks his/her children (really, watch the inerview about the Bush Girls). That's creepier than the time Martha made beautiful napkin holders out of her children,
Given that I don't like these people (John Gray, you know who you are), I'm guessing that you think I would not follow in their footsteps.
You are, of course, WRONG. These people make a lot of money, and they have no idea what they are talking about - that is pretty appealing to me, given my abilities and my needs.
Because of this, I am thinking about starting a column called something like "A Misanthrope's guide to the (un)Easy Life. The content will focus on things I have learned in my life and how YOU can apply then too your own life. It's important to me that I don't pretend to apply them to my own life, because no one can do that. We can learn things, and we can explain these things; we cannot apply them to our own situations. Junkies have learned more lessons than all of the rest of us combined - they just can't apply these lessons to whatever remains of their own lives.
I, on the othe hand, will provide you with no-holds-barred advice on how my mistakes and stupidity can help you.
Let's say I wiill do it if I get...two positive comments. Come on...two positive comments.
