In my life, I've literally written millions of words. To be honest, I think I suffer from a severe case of OCD. I shit you not. I have severe anxiety. I suffer from endless intrusive thoughts. And I sincerely think that we are in the End Days. So writing might be the compulsive part of my illness.
But here's the thing. My hobby has gotten me nowhere. In fact, it's been a dismal failure. Hell, I might have sold two hundred books throughout my entire lackluster career. I'm almost sixty, and I've come to the conclusion that it's time to stop. Why keep beating a dead horse, right?
Therefore, instead of insulting me, maybe you could be nice. It's not like I'm disappearing forever. All you have to do go over to the Twitter and find me at @wafflebaconboy. So there's no point in being an asshole about it.
Anyway, thanks for understanding. You are now free to go about your business. Enjoy your day.
Thanks for all your posts. I found them interesting and enjoyable, because they were honest and authentic, not some curated nonsense from some celebrity wannabe. Maybe like some other artists, you'll only get recognition after your death, which sucks for you but might be nice for your kids. If you do decide to write some more blog posts (can't kick the writing habit), then please post the new URL here - it took me a while to connect the Waffle House stuff with the Fool In Korea stuff. Best wishes anyway, even if you don't post anymore (I'm too much of a dinosaur to bother with Twitter / X).
ReplyDelete^ Couldn't have said it better...
DeleteYou havent written anything worth a shit in nearly 5 years. You are a total narcissist underachiever. Sorry to be so harsh, because im grateful for the belly laughs from long ago. Try not to OD on kratom or get shot by some god damned savage working a job you are five sigmas over qualified for. HI Ho.
ReplyDeleteWhat have you written that's any better ? Why don't you share a link, you ungrateful shit.
DeleteThe beast is a coddled mommas boy. If we dont give him tough love, who will?
DeleteShut up and keep writing
ReplyDeleteGood luck to you! It is hard getting old.I'm turning 71 here in a few days.
ReplyDeleteI can't seem to hold down a job anymore for physical and mental reasons,plus a tendency to binge drink beer.
I to suffer from intrusive thoughts about fear of the future,not dying so much as living and the situation I might find my self in,
I recently had a dream that I was back in prison and it was so real. I was greatly relieved to wake up in my own bed in the "FreeWorld".
That seems to have cured my depression and anxiety some,but it is a recent devlopment so I will see how long it last.
I ebjoyed your stories especially your insights into the people you meet, and your :There but for the Grace of God go I", attitude.
Best of luck to you and yours,
Good news. You can watch the beast on twitter make a jackass of himself daily. But what do i know. Thats the way the cookie crumbles. Better than a sharp stick in the eye. Tough titty said the kitty. At least my kids dont hate me. Kratom seems to make me feel better. These chinese vapes are pretty good
DeleteI have to say Beast, your sept 4 podcast was pretty entertaining. Youre no walter cronkite, but keep up the good work.
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeletePodcasts have been surprisingly entertaining. Your life really is one bad luck shleprock moment after another. And youve been getting roasted on twitter, which is also entertaining. You should set up a go fund me. Why not make a few shekels to spend on sugary snacks and poisonous vapes from china.
ReplyDeleteStill think you are doing penance for your failed marriage. Or maybe you are a world class underachiever and bullshitter. But seeing you are content to suck off the govt. tit and work low end blue collar jobs, why not give applebees or tgifs a try? Beats scraping shit off toilet seats and maybe you will hook up with a hottie and get to fuck her ass.
ReplyDeleteHow bout an update Beast? Miss you brother!
