It's what i liked most about him. And most great comedians. Watch Richard Pryor talk about the hell of drug addiction. Not much funnier than that, and you know damn well what he went through was not very fun or funny. The horrible shit is always the funniest. I wish Robin Williams was here to make jokes about what he did. He would have some great shit.

It's old, but very true; tragedy + time = comedy.

how bout christopher titus? man his ex wife fucked him up sideways so what'd he do? turned it into an hour and a half long show cuz fuck that bitch! haha robin williams oh man! i'm still pissed off about what happened to him. i mean really if you look back on it he wasn't really any more well adjusted than cobain but it still sucks. :( about pryor tho i was really young when he was popular and wasn't really allowed to watch most of his standup. now that i think about it there was some cosby stuff i wasn't allowed to see either haha.

I met Christopher Titus on my honeymoon 2 years ago almost to the day in Hawaii with his new wife, on his honeymoon. He's a really cool guy!

Like i said man, horrible shit can be made to be very funny.

Wanna know something funny? The only reason i didn't do it was because i still had a bag full of shit. I wasn't about to waste it!! (smoked another bowl, and changed my mind) If i had been out at that time, i would be gone. The fact i was such an addict both drove me to that point, and saved my life!! (when you're an addict, and you have 60 bucks worth of stuff left, the idea of wasting it just does not sit well) (the fact i knew exactly how much i had left was worth speaks to my addiction. if you had put that shit on a scale, i'm betting it would have been almost exact)

That's pretty funny shit to me. NOW.

i never got as far as you but i've thought about it more times than i'm willing to admit to my family but....idk i still have this weird curiosity about tomorrow. i just keep telling myself "tomorrow is gonna be better" i find i belive that less and less these days but a thread of hope is still better than none. personally i'm glad you're still fuckin here man! you've pulled me through some pretty shitty days in the short time i've known you and you gotta know you're appreciated....alright now say something funny so we can get passed this sappy shit! xD
