I'm a Winner.

Back on November 1, 2003, I posted 19 reasons I'm a loser. I was only nineteen years old. I think I was a lot more bitter back then. Here it is over five years later. Much has happened during that time. I'd like to take a moment to give updates for these. Think of this as a story about the power of positive thinking or something.

I like hanging out with you because we can talk about skinning people alive, but sometimes I get the feeling that we're both more positive when we're around other people. Maybe we could change that. Positivity is kind of neat. I still like talking about skinning people alive.

Your previous views on stoners seem kind of odd.
A) Why put yourself in competition with stoners? I myself would like to persuade people not to steal, but I never find myself thinking GODDAMN GENIUS CAT BURGLARS MAKING MORE MONEY THAN ME. The only thing I put myself in competition with stoners for is the last potato chip.
B) How did you live in Humboldt County and consider most stoners as successfull as you?

Back then, I was working at Papa Murphy's, sucking at it, not going to college, and having just graduated high school with a C- average. Who else would I compete with?

I think it's totally possible to make serial killer jokes while remaining positive. Positively creepy is the way to be!

Very inspiring words, thank you for sharing.

This is a great retrospective, especially for someone who is (relatively) young.

As I was reading this, I kind of wanted to share it with my youngest sister, who is going to be 19 at the end of this year. Might do her some good.

Thanks for sharing this.

Very inspirational. I'm so glad I had kids, you learn so much from them.
