So anyway, and I also noticed, like, I go on social media, and the level of
fucking, like, this, this, sort of this, this new toxic self-help out there,
you know, where, first of all, everybody's, like, given, like, this life advice,
and it's just like, what is your life?
I got to see what your life is, that you've applied this, and that it works.
Are you even a therapist?
Like, who the fuck are you, right?
And now it's become, like, this, sort of, aggressive self-help, where they,
they put this panic in you, like a used car salesman.
Hey, I got another guy coming down to look at it in 20 minutes, right?
Like, you know, in the last, in the last 30 seconds, you just aged 40 seconds.
Think about that, you know?
But if you eat, you know, my liver, I went to the doctor, my liver, I'm 51, my
liver is 65, but after taking this stuff, my liver is now 37.
And I'm 26, my dick works again, and I'm fucking, it's like, what is this shit?
It was something about kids going, like, 90% of the free time you have to play
with your kids happens before they're nine years old.
45% of that happens before they're five.
It's just like, what is this fucking, first of all, what is this?
What is this for?
It's just, and I just get off there going, like, oh my God, I'm a fat fuck who
doesn't spend enough time with this kid whose fucking liver is beyond his age,
and blah, blah, blah, blah.
It's like, I want to go back.
They should have, like, you know, they have, like, you know, little bands.
Every three years, somebody's bringing it back.
You know, Lenny Kravitz, he's bringing it back.
Jet, they're bringing it back.
And there's always a rock band that's bringing it back.
Lenny Kravitz came out, and he was like, fuck that wireless shit.
I'm using the old Marshalls with the coil thing.
Fucking, I don't know.
Like, as far as rock music, there's been a band every fucking six years is
bringing it back, right?
They should do that with social media.
Like, I want to go back to old school social media where it was just watching
someone get kicked in the balls or watching somebody butcher slash his solo on
Sweet Child of Mine.
Like, just somebody getting shot with a BB gun in the middle of a river as he
screams before his voice changes.
Remember that one?
That fat guy on the fucking dirt bike, he went to go over the jump.
I think that's still on my MySpace page.
I just don't know how to get to it.
It was just fun.
It was fun.
You know what I sound like?
I sound like old rappers, you know, when they talk about, like, the early days
of hip-hop.
Like, man, it was just fun.
It was just a party, you know?
They used to say that when it became, like, gangster rap, and there was, like,
all of that fucking drama going on before now.
Now what is, is it the drugged out?
I have no idea what's going on.
I just know if you just say, if you just say they're drinking lean, you can
kind of sustain yourself in the conversation for about eight seconds before
people know you have no idea what you're talking about.
