I am surprised people give you helpful comments like that. Perhaps in real life you are a little less judgmental of another person's battle with addiction and maybe even take into account that you couldn't possibly accurately judge a man ha you have no insight into what he has been through or was going thru leading up till his tragic death.

I would also hope that in real life you would have more tact to even consider saying this about a man whos body is not even cold yet.

Shame on you man. Do better.

I can live with shame. In fact i got to. And "tact" that is nice. Maybe i don't have insight maybe i have.

I dropped these old greek and latin insights when i was 14. So long ago.

I can live with shame.

Pride is a sin, right?

Why not live a life of virtuous shame???

But not mine.

I did an inner inventory here or there.

The better part of "virtuosity" is knowing when to do what. It ain't my strong suit. But you ? Hell: I can argue you into oblivion till i die.

Ok.

Why not live a life of virtuous shame???

Seemed like the direction you were going.

But not mine.

Wait. What???

I did an inner inventory here or there.

The better part of "virtuosity" is knowing when to do what. It ain't my strong suit.

"Virtuosity", huh?

noun:
* the character, ability, or skill of a virtuoso.
* a fondness for or interest in virtu.

But you ? Hell: I can argue you into oblivion till i die.

Indeed.

Virtue is the word you're looking for.

I can live with shame. In fact i got to.

And i the fuck know who i am.

    If you need this picture i am ok with it. Simple minds tend to need pictures.

      And still you loose. You never could win in grammar but you already knew that one, didn't you ?

      Because it was told to you when you were young like ten times or somewhat like that.

        I really dissected you. Sure. But you ain't no dog. Not even a "dawg".

        I'm a dog. Truthful, loyal, intelligent.

        And i suppose this neither is the last nor first time we will bump heads. No matter how many fake identies you create: There always is sme who has seen it and actually can smell all your weaknesses.

        Cool deal bud.

        Once you got a label on your head: You know ?

        Most people don't realize that scars in fact honor the bearer.

        No, I don't know. I am not following

        [–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (3 children)

        It is right in front of you.

        [–]turtlew0rk 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

        I am not following. Headed in the other direction. It is behind me.

        [–][deleted] 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

        Some scars you'll never get behind. Because you feel them every fucking day.

        But i get that you don't get my humor here.

        [–]turtlew0rk 2 insightful - 2 fun2 insightful - 1 fun3 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

        Listen man, if I didn't allow myself to be miserable I would have nothing to bitch about. The very thought of that terrifies me. I try to not even allow scars to form by routinely picking my scabs. It may be wrong but you and I both know it is satisfying as hell.
