There is something about yourself that you dont know. Something that you will deny even exists until its too late to do anything about it. Its the only reason you get up in the morning, the only reason you suffer the shitty boss, the blood, the sweat and the tears. This is because you want people to know how good, attractive, generous, funny, wild and clever you really are. Fear or revere me, but please think Im special. We share an addiction. Were approval junkies. Were all in it for the slap on the back and the gold watch. The hip, hip, hoo-fucking-rah. Look at the clever boy with the badge, polishing his trophy. Shine on, you crazy diamond. Cos were just monkeys wrapped in suits, begging for the approval of others.

I like death. Im a big fan of it.
