Monster's Scary Redux

Yang Version
Ying be below

T
he bestest thing about being a kid be all the pure and unadulterated bullshit you can get away with.
When children play; there be a lack of pre-meditation in their actions that makes me want to puke. All the dumb noise making and screaming just drives me nuts!
When were the last time you got the chance to go out to play?
How much time do you spend at work?
How much bullshit do you take from total strangers on a daily basis?
When was the last time someone gave you a break?

Having fun has become an incredibly complicated and costly prospect that many folks actually aren't enjoying themselves at all. At least not without chemical assistance.

Me misses throwing rocks through the bastard neighbors windows.
kicking the shit out of the class tattle-tale 'cuz he got me sent to the pricipal's office
Playing Roller Ball with me buddies and ending up with a bloody nose (Do kids even play that anymore or has Nintendo crushed that pastime too.)
Shoplifting chocolate bars and not giving a shit iffin you're caught cause you know it ain't no big deal.
Dropping rock from the overpass so the crash into oncoming cars..
Throwing eggs at kids from other classes.
Stealing garbage can covers to use as sleds in winter.

Me has been so worried about keeping me head above water that Me can't honestly remember the last time me just went out and had a blast without having to worry about someone else. That sucks!

Me has visited many bloggers over the last ten days or so and there seems to be a general feeling of malaise running through our posts.
It looks like we not be getting what we want out of life. Unappreciative spouses, ungrateful children or bosses, lacklustre sex or none at all.
Our financial, medical and social burdens are becoming more and more overwhelming with each passing day. The world around us is spiraling into a miasma of violence and despair. It's time to let go of all the seriousness and simply take a break from all the hairy bullshit.

Me be going out tonight to tear this town a new asshole and there be a few of you guys me would love to have join me in this endeavor. If this ain't to your liking there be another post below that reflects the schizophrenic side of Me.

Me no party responsibly.

Pink~ It do look like that, but actually Me went to the driving range today before me played a round of golf. Took the Monster with me fer luck.

I often ponder this notion... I wonder if its middle age and the wake up call that we are 1/2 done with our lives...

Is this it??? Shouldnt there be more? Why is it such a rat race... then I look around and see that what I have created for myself and my family isnt that bad. Perhaps this IS all there is(with all of its flaws and good bits)... this is as good as it gets and I need to learn to be happy again. I really wonder if, as you suggested here, if we have forgotten how to just play and have fun... we need to relearn how to have fun and be happy! The thing is... HOWWWWWW do you learn to be happy?

Scary Monster said...

Kate me friend, you don't learn to be happy. Happiness be a Nike catch-phrase. Get me drift?

When were the last time you got the chance to go out to play?
Its been months, many many months and even then I was calling home, watching my grrl's cell phone and worrying because everything happens when I'm not prepared to handle it.

How much time do you spend at work?
I'm a mom, 24/7. No days off.

How much bullshit do you take from total strangers on a daily basis?
Thankfully not much because I can't/don't get out anywhere usually but there's telephone assholes who continually try to make me homicidal on a nearly daily basis.

When was the last time someone gave you a break?
What is this "brak" that you speak of? Is it good with caramel sauce?


I understand my dear sweet monster... I really do. have a pint or three for me, OK?

Stacia said...

Just don't end up in jail again, please. :-)

RevRee said...

I hope you have an awesome hang over!

Pink said...

Well then....I'll put monster on a tee and pow!

Four!!!

I do believe Monster told me he wanted to be an astronaut. I can make his dreams come true!!!

WHACKITY STOMP!

It sounds like your idea of fun as a kid terrorized your block.

Let me know if you ever need help throwing rocks into your bastard neighbor's window. Fuck him. Fuck that bastard.

Mighty Dyckerson said...

Me could've sworn me read this post somewhere before. Me must be going insane. Now me be really depressed. SOB!

Serena said...

I like both the Yin and Yang versions. I do wanna be a Jedi, though, and I don't plan to ever stop playing. I'll still spin and skip and trash the leaf pile -- and stick my tongue out at the people who think I'm nuts.

Listen, if you go tie one on tonight, just stay cool. No more Scary in a cell.

Sometimes I think that others benefit from our lives more than we do.

Scary Monster said...

Grrl~ Sounds like you need a night out on the town. Let someone else take care of the kids for a few hours and go get yerslf somw R&R

December~ Made it through the night without actually becoming too much of a nuisance or ending up in the pokey.

RevRee~ A little slower than usual, but nothing that a strong cup of coffee can't fix.

Pink~ That be one way to lift me up.

Dr. Kenneth Noisewater~ Well it would be holy terror iffin Me did it all in one day, but back then me were a little more mellow and spread things out over a couple of weeks.

Mr.Dyckerson ~ Yeah Me knows what you mean. Kinda like regurgitating a post about folks who literally don't stop shakin in their boots.

SJ ~ Me can see both the yin and yang struggling within you. Me likes it when you're nice, but Me must admid you be funnier when you pull out the yang!

tfg~ Dude. Yoube posting Yin comments in the yang only area. Get nasty, buddy.

Well, if I did the things I did as an kid/adolescent now I'd be thrown in prison. It would still be fun, though.

One thing that my friend's and I did once was took an empty Co2 canister and filled it with match heads. Guess what happened? We made a kick-ass rocket that launched successfully. It ended up not going vertically, but terrorized the entire neighborhood and ended up going clean through someone's garage door. Ah, good times.

Outdoorsy Girl said...

I'm there with ya! I could use a night out on the town!

I give off the impression of having fun all the time, but my life sucks just as bad as the next guy's.

I liked these Yin-Yang posts. Cool idea.

Scary Monster said...

Grunt that sounds like a blast! Me don't want to instigate anarchy, but on a limited scale it might be fun.

O-Girl~ You might be in the same soup as everyone else, but with you in the pot everything just tastes sweeter.

The Yin-Yang thing just kinda happened when Me realized that all things are always balanced out on a wheel held up at diametrically opposed points.

STOMP.
