I don't wanna write Livejournal anymore because it won't match up to the darlings of the blogosphere
I don't wanna write stories anymore because they won't match up to anything Mark Twain, Nabokov, Kerouac or F. Scott Fitgerald wrote
I don't wanna pick up my guitar because I won't belt out anything like Jimi Hendrix, Tony Iommi or Tom Morello could
I don't wanna go to work tomorrow because I won't win a Nobel Prize for tracking down aerosols
I don't want to take a chance or make an effort because my smallest shortcomings are still failures, and my greatest successes are all incomplete.
What I want to do is stay at home, eat cheese and Ritz crackers and smoke cigarettes and watch the Adam and Joe shoe until the end of time. But one day plus is taking the piss.

You'll never have to be famous, nor trample to the top to achieve ambition.
Why be one of the greatest when it's easier to be happy?

Unique and special, as long as you don't start telling me about genetics again!
Join the massess of the middle middle classes!
We get to be rude about everyone.
