Gosh, I hope I didn't just destroy that.
well....i don't really pay much attention to how humble i am. i probably come off as a tad arrogant most of the time, in fact. that post you quoted was begun with a serious message, but then i started to feel a bit silly as it went on, and i wound up going for the laugh....as usual.

the important part of the message was that i see the contradiction of those that portray themselves as superior based on their selflessness. we've had a joking repartee about this in the past....but it really does go on. when i was on tour, the 'super hippies' used to make me sad. they were the BEST hippies. in fact, they were the best at playing the role of a hippie, when in fact they were calculating and devious, not carefree and blissful like a true freak is.

my advice to the world: fucking be honest about yourself, and don't take yourself so seriously. you are just another brick in the wall.
