Hey, you. You're reading this, so I'm assuming you got out of bed
|
|
this morning, or at least this afternoon. My question: Why?
|
|
Why get out of bed? Why bother to do anything at all?
|
|
Eventually you're just going to have to grow up and get a job, unless you
|
|
happen to be independently wealthy, in which case I suggest you stop
|
|
reading this, and go snort cocaine off of the round, indolent bellies of
|
|
high-priced call girls or something.
|
|
So. You're either not independently wealthy, or not smart enough
|
|
to go away and spend your money on something fun. Let's assume that you
|
|
will some day have to work for your living, and work at something other
|
|
than not pissing your father off so badly that he disowns you. Now at
|
|
this point, you have two options. You can either go the education route
|
|
and spend a minimum of four years at college, or you can get a job as
|
|
soon as possible.
|
|
Now, if you've gotten a job, you're fucked already. For one
|
|
thing, you threw away a perfectly good opportunity to spend at least four
|
|
years drinking and smoking phatty nugs while complaining about how hard
|
|
your life is. Now, don't get me wrong, college can be an utter bitch
|
|
sometimes, but it's nowhere near as frustrating as spending an entire day
|
|
asking people if they want fries with that. You can look forward to
|
|
doing pointless, meaningless, slightly demeaning tasks for the rest of
|
|
your life.
|
|
So let's assume you go to college. Great. You get to put off
|
|
real life for at least four more years, if you don't rilly fuck up. But
|
|
some day, some how, you're going to graduate. And what then? You're
|
|
either going to have some pointless job in Academia where you'll do
|
|
research on something that no one other than you and the five other
|
|
people in you're absurdly specialized field will care about, or you'll be
|
|
working on creating some unneeded consumer good that the huge, uncaring
|
|
corporation you work for can sell to the masses so that we can all
|
|
convince ourselves that capitalism works.
|
|
|
|
If I were you, I'd start drinking heavily right now.
