So, it brings me to wonder where all these guys I knew went to. Well, before Putin's mobsters seized Facebook (it was for sale after all, and relatively cheap for data-mining and facial recognition software, now all owned by the Russians, that's right, Russia has a picture of you and knows where you live now, and what site you went to right after Facebook, and where your kids are, etc., especially if you're in the military, then send all that data to the highest bidder after they're done raping your identity.. THANKS, FACEBOOK!) Er, I digress. Anyway, I've noticed a majority have moved on to Dull City. They never achieved Greatness. They never saved any lives or did anything significant. A lot of 'em had kids and got fat. I guess that's the American Dream now, that and Tweeting on an iPhone, L01, becoming Digital Caligulas, all of them, clicking LIKE.. or worse still, not clicking LIKE.
I'm sad for those I've known. I really wish any of them get more passion for life and do something intense. Taking your kids to Disney World is not really that big a deal. Well, actually it's a bit insane-chaotic so I guess maybe it is, as I was taken there at age 11 and yeah, it was pretty cool, though it was only for an afternoon, I still remember it vividly.. the clown that grabbed me behind the porta-potties, the calliope music distorting slowly, that clown nose getting closer to my face, smelling of gin and cheap cigarettes as I blacked out, only waking many years later behind a 7-11 dumpster wearing torn lederhosen, a wig, and lipstick. And a flight-cap. Oh, just kidding.
Facebook was a nice tool to peek into their universes and see how they were all doing. Fat? Check. Parents? Check. Dead-end job? Check. Dreams unfulfilled? Check. Rather a dark future, almost Future Noir for most of 'em. Not all of them, which gives me hope. I want them all to do well, not settle for crap! I want them to seize Life by her ballz and WIN! Record a song. Get a Corvette. Buy a house. Champion a cause. I hate it when I see parents live vicariously through their children, "I had a shitty life but I'll make damned sure you will get it right this time!" .. and then they buy their kids an iPhone with unlimited texting and entitle them to trophies for participation in something because in schools, everyone's a winner. Can't wait until they realize the Truth of Life. Maybe kids need to sit under Yggdrasil a while. The Wheel perpetuates itself, parents. Acorn falls mighty close to the tree and pushing as hard as you might, the kid is predisposed to be just like you.. exactly. Despite all you try. SO.. you might want to be a hero yourself instead of making your kid be a hero, then at least the kid has a role model worth a darn. You want your kid to tell the other kids, "My mom/dad's coooool!!!" Like Betty White. Do it. NOW.
