Im guessing slacker

I’m about having fun, being a slacker, normal peeps just bore me

I know I’m a slacker, obviously.  But figured if you were poking around on this site. You must have some slacker tendency’s yourself, or maybe you secretly aspire to be a slacker? Or just want to explore this, chaotic, unorganized, non news watching, jigsaw puzzle making, non goal setting, what was I talking about again? Lifestyle, that was it :). In which case, you definitely came to the right place 🙂

Or, perhaps you are a real go getter! Have everything organized, just so. And had to check out this slacker place. To pass judgment on it, well guess what? You are in luck!!!! Because this place is totally empty! You can kick off your shoes, and judge till, your feet get cold because you kicked off your shoes, there is still no one here to care lol. 

I have a difficult time communicating with those type of peeps, the go getters, the organized, I guess they’re called normal peeps, or I mean people :). Not that I don’t like them, I might even admire them, in an odd way.

They go through their lives always doing the right thing. They get good grades in school, and all the other things you are supposed to do. They aspire to fit the mold of a perfectly well adjusted person. 

They follow every recommendation, they are basically really nice people, but they bore the hell out of me!! And they often, to be fair, pass judgment on anyone or anything that lives outside the norm.

I just have no desire to pretend to understand them, or pretend to be one of them. Even like, the non asshole, normal peeps, I guess, the well adjusted peeps. I have a hard time communicating with them too. 

I have often felt, like I have been acting my whole life, acting to be normal. Even though I look like a fairly well adjusted, regular person, on a good day ;). I still feel like I have to put on a show to hangout with afore mentioned normal folk.

Many Normal folk are humorless as well. I find, not all, but most. I live for comedy. Chris Rock sums is up well in his episode of comedians in cars getting coffee, which I basically keep on a loop while doing other things 🙂 

Like writing the dumb shit I post on this blog/site 🙂

When he is telling Jerry, when they were at a fancy gathering, and he saw Jerry across the room. He made his way to him, as quickly as he possibly could, and grabbed him by the arm, with both hand’s, and said “comedian!” He couldn’t handle the smooshing with the normal folk lol. He needed another comedian to be with.

I relate to that sooo well. I know I’ve never mentioned this before on here, but I may have done a bit of standup before…I also play guitar, and have jammed with a lot of different peeps. Musicians and comedians are my type of people, you can throw artists in that group too. I love to sketch and paint. Although, for whatever reason, painting is stressful to me. It’s supposed to be more of a Zen experience. I’m constantly swearing at it, I think a tad bit of OCD lol.

They are not normal people, and they don’t aspire to be normal people, they are very happy being as weird as they can be. Well, at least most of them, there are some very driven folks in those fields, but even those few, are very far from being normal 🙂

I don’t watch the news, like, ever! I have friends, and relatives, that find that completely absurd. They be like “How are you supposed to know what’s going on in the world?” And I don’t even bother to put any effort into my answers anymore, I usually just say, I don’t know…

I honestly think of the news channels, as the, make you feel bad channels. All they do is try and emphasise how bad things are. It’s like they dare you to be happy, or not care. I actually skip by them really fast, so I don’t accidentally, catch like depression or some shit from them 🙂

Peeps, who, I am reluctantly, having this conversation with, will invariably ask me, well what dooo you do then? I usually don’t want to say anything, but sometimes I do say, something like, I like to read the liner notes on my albums, just to try and end this depressing conversation. 

It’s not that I don’t like to do things, i just don’t like always being questioned about why I am not a normal person like they are.  You know, with goals and shit? Like on my flight down to PV, I was sitting beside a couple, that really liked to talk, a lot, thankfully they seemed to like to talk to each other the most, which was fine by me 🙂

And they talked loud enough, I think, trying to invite me into their conversation, and from what I could hear, they were both in real estate. So, of course, eventually the guy sitting beside me said, so what do you do? I said, jigsaw puzzles mostly. He didn’t know what to think of that, and then of course he has a million follow up questions about it.

Really? Yes, that’s all you do? Yes, that’s all I do, well that’s not entirely true, sometimes I like to post dumb shit on this website that has no traffic on it :). Really? Yes, why do you do that? I don’t know honestly, but I am compelled to do dumb things like that, now, If you will excuse me, and I don’t mean to be rude, but I’m pretty tired, and would rather just try to sleep.

But when I do meet another, ridiculous/different/strange person, who see’s the humor in everything, and isn’t trying to impress anyone, by listing off their accomplishments, and goals, and passing judgements on anyone that isn’t just like them. It’s almost like we don’t even have to say anything, and sometimes, just start laughing, for no particular reason at all lol.

I guess what I’m saying, besides, I am really good at being a slacker lol, is my whole life is based on having fun, anything serious just bores me. Actually writing this article is becoming not as fun as I thought it would be, I’m a little bored now lol. This really seemed way to long winded and normal for me as well lol.

I’m not even going to spell check it or anything, maybe later…but with me later really means never lol. I’m going to do a jigsaw puzzle…while watching comedians in cars, maybe I’ll pick this up later, we all know what that means lol…I’m out…peace! 

You fucking Rockstars!!!!!!!!!
