its like people learn how to be people from other people i guess from the stories they tell each other about how theyre supposed to be and from movies and tv and music and shit like with the example you just gave how many fucking times does that exact scene play out within the first ten minutes of a feel good piece of celluloid americana so when youre the boyfriend and you see someone making your girl uncomfortable of course the first thing you think to do is play hero because thats what youve seen a million heroes do before you but after you get your shit utterly wrecked you just got to think im not the hero im not even A hero theres no such thing in real fuckin life but no one ever tells you how to live a real life they just give you story after story until you got no choice but to pick what handful of lame ass character tropes you want to die by and hope it wont suck too hard
no subject
THINK i understand
its like
people learn how to be people from other people i guess
from the stories they tell each other about how theyre supposed to be and from movies and tv and music and shit
like with the example you just gave
how many fucking times does that exact scene play out within the first ten minutes of a feel good piece of celluloid americana
so when youre the boyfriend and you see someone making your girl uncomfortable of course the first thing you think to do is play hero because thats what youve seen a million heroes do before you
but after you get your shit utterly wrecked you just got to think
im not the hero
im not even A hero
theres no such thing in real fuckin life
but no one ever tells you how to live a real life they just give you story after story until you got no choice but to pick what handful of lame ass character tropes you want to die by and hope it wont suck too hard
