Well, it does. And I am.

"Boy, the winter sucks, I'm out of here." -- Benjamin "Pinback" Parrish.

That's all you had to say.

You're still stuck, probably because you're listening to your girlfriend, thinking that I'm "running away from Colorado because it done me wrong!!!"

Hey, if I wanted to discuss things in a proper and rational manner, I'd get on AIM.

I wasn't, because I had no pressing need to. Which is a good thing, because then it wouldn't be as easy for me to leave.

I hate to be the one to tell you this, but all this stuff goes hand in hand. You can't meet any enterprising young women that you can stand or vice versa, but then again you are a "gentleman of leisure" who hates working and has no easily identifiable financial future. But you do work! At home. Where you can DRINK. I can see why Colorado didn't work out for you, you really gave it your all.

Colorado worked out fine for me, and likely would have worked out fine for me if I'd stayed. Arizona will also work out fine. And right now, I'd rather be there. You're still stuck, probably because you're listening to your girlfriend, thinking that I'm "running away from Colorado because it done me wrong!!!"

Which is not the case. Not even remotely.

Are you asking me why you shouldn't mooch off your grandparents? Is that what you are asking? I have a reason? Because you're 33?

I'm only staying there for a couple weeks until I can get a house.

Don't get me wrong, if I got a nice job offer from ESPN or someone tomorrow I think Dayna and I would be packing our bags for Bristol faster than you can belt out "SAW HERRO TO MAH LI'LL FRENNND." I am not in love with Colorado and Colorado is not in love with me. It's not that you're leaving somewhere that I feel it necessary to comment upon, my friend, but the why.

And the many, varied scenarios you and yours have concocted in your mind to answer that "why?" question are all wrong. But like I said, I doubt I'll change your mind, so what's the point of discussing it?

Plus, since I know there is no changing your mind, why not comment upon it?

I already have, but since you were busy going "Pffft! Do you BELEEDISS?" rather than reading what I said, you apparently have missed it, so I'll say it again. I wanna be closer to the grands, and hang out with Z man, and work at a place where they let you bring your pets in on Fridays. (And that has In-n-Outs and Fatburgers and good Mexican restaurants.) (And that's just a quick 7.5 hour drive from LA, so I can go collect my money from Adam LeSchack.) (And that doesn't get cold.)

(And that isn't full of stupid, insecure, manipulative, emotionally destructive BITCHES who---

Ha ha ha! Just kidding.

C'mon, are we really judged by our productivity and usefulness here, because if so, I'm in trouble.

Seriously? Did you miss SNT? I know it was easy to miss. He just dropped all the shit he had going on where he was and left, don't most of his websites hold this in common? I don't see what if anything is holding him anywhere at any given time. I don't see how he isn't in an Airport trying to convince people to find Buddah. Maybe his grandparents aren't the brand you see in craftmatic commercials, maybe they need geniune help, hell, maybe they don't. Though if there is one thing that I can say about Pinner is he's going to do what he thinks is best for him, even if it kills him. Also, freemeals do not mean mooching. What I'm doing is mooching.

True dat, the best goddamn motherfucking burritos I ever had in my life were at a little Mexican stand in an old Kodak kiosk (something like that) on 55th(?) Ave, open 24 hours, that has these huge goddamn tortillas for like a buck fifty, that were the best Mexican food ever. Plus AZ has Jack In The Boxes :(.

Actually, that was about Pinner and ICJ. I just wanted to make the wife beater joke so I quoted the text that was meaningful to it.

Oh,Mexican food, you mean they figured out a new way to make, tortilla,
bean and sauce taste better and different? BTW, I assume your grand parents moved to Arizona to retire and die in peace. You think they want your neurotic ass hangin around. I'm sure a the 2nd time you come over for dinner gramps will be saying "Jesus don't people your age go get laid or work or something".

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a very large post in the works on a new topic that is funnier. Apparently may reputation as a master poster is depending on it.

Arizona and Colorado. States that don't matter for people that don't matter! Arizona is the perfect place for you, it's warm and safe and tucked in to the anus of the country. You'll never have to worry about meeting a white girl or eating a decent meal again!

Dude. You should totally move to St. Louis. It's the syphilis capital of the US, and it's in the Methamphetamine State. There are lots of observant Jews in my neighborhood, so you could blasphemously abuse them about Teh G-D. I'll take you out to the shooting range and we can drink whiskey in my huge environmentally hostile SUV and then blast away incompetently with shotguns. And you can housesit for my Three Enormous Dogs.

10+ Are gay guys, and wife beaters I think.

So what? Pinner feels duty to his family because he left them early in life. Furthermore, the motherfucker has wanderlust something awful, and declaring the entire state of AZ painfully unhip won't remedy that. What'd you expect, that you and your Internet buddy were going to grow old on a porch in CO?

Actually, I take an inordinate amount of shit from my woman and then I ask for more(ok, i didn't ask for it). But thanks for the . . . compliment?

by **pinback** » Thu Dec 30, 2004 12:20 pm

I like my grandparents a lot. I don't like the way their sisters treat them out there. I like the sisters separately. Not a ton, but enough.

But I DO like my grandparents a great deal.

And this has nothing to do with women. If I'd hit it off with someone, then sure, I'd probably stay, but I'd also stay if I had a job here. Or any other significant reason to stay here.

Fact is, there's really no pressing reason to remain in Colorado at this point, so why not go make some people happy? And get warmer? And get better access to fresh chiles? And get closer to SoCal and Vegas? And get back with the Z-meister? And get free food from grammy?

Why would I stay?

by **Vitriola** » Thu Dec 30, 2004 12:03 pm

I know you must love your family, but, be honest, you NEVER talk about them, we have never heard of them, the last time you saw them you had nothing positive to say about any of them, and when your uncle died one of your first actions was to go onto JCBBS and make blasphemous jokes about the G-d. People's family members die all the time, and most people don't uproot and move to a city that even Philadelphia looks down on.

However, if you go, look into the Tempe/Scottsdale area in the east valley, as that's the trendy section where the good bars and restaurants and houses are. It's also where all the industrial bands of the mid-90s came from, and is pretty decent and cool.
