    Brendon! Brendon come here for a sec.

    Yeah coach?

    Brendon I have something to tell you. It’s something important. Never fall in love Brendon. It’s not worth it, you didn’t have what it takes.

    Uh huh

    Love is an alpha male’s game Brendon. Do you know what an alpha male is?

    Uh, yeah I think s…

    An alpha male is the strongest man in a tribe, Brendon. They did this study with wolves, turns out the alphas get all the ladies. Chicks really eat that stuff up. You’re what’s called a beta, Brendon. You’ve just got no chance, you’re better off not even trying.

    Uh, are you an alpha male, coach?

    I’m a sigma male Brendon. Sigma, there’s a difference. Means I’m a lone wolf, I don’t follow the rules Brendon. The ladies can’t handle that, it intimidates them. If you think about it that’s even more alpha than the alpha males. I read it online.

    Uh huh. Where’d you read that coach?

    The Internet Brendon, the information superhighway. Lot of information on there. A lot of information some people, betas, aren’t ready to hear Brendon. It’s sorta subversive, off the beaten path. The kind of information they don’t want people to know.

    Who’s"they"?

    Brendon why don’t you worry about getting out there and actually kicking the ball. And don’t fall in love, that’s important.

      Just creates a new void that constantly needs to be filled with more drugs. It does simplify things a lot, drugs go in = good is about the extent of your preoccupations.

        For me it’s more like, drugs go in= my brain stops going one billion miles per hour, the world stops spinning, i realize the things i need to take care of and start eliminating tasks that I’ve been putting off for weeks like a chore/ bill paying assassin my short term memory comes back and my feet are finally planted flat and firmly on the ground. I can hold a conversation with someone and am genuinely interested in what they have to say. Drugs wear off= body hurts, nose running, flu like symptoms, I have zero short term memory, I can’t remember what anyone says, bills? Please drugged up me will take care of again when I get my medicine, energy, libido, appetite all gone. Pray for death. It never comes but the next score does. Rinse repeat until dead. Shouldn’t be long now, i reckon at my current rate I’ll live for 4 to 6 more years. I want to get better, unfortunately the proper resources aren’t available and if I go cold turk I’ll probably die from the withdrawal.

        I want to get better, I really do. I’m stuck in a cycle
