I'm Not an Asshole....But....

I got a friend who is an alcoholic. Young dude so at first I was trying to help him and try to get him to stop. That worked for about 5 minutes. Of course I just said fuck it, he lives a pretty good life and is happy with himself so why shouldn't he keep drinking til he dies, which at this rate will probably be around May. Yet the guy keeps showing signs like he wants to quit. However I'm the type that comes home after a hard day, gambles and wants to be left alone. So I'm like fuck this and I keep telling the guy "man you shouldn't quit, you seem like you're enjoying it so maybe you should start shooting heroin and shit. I bet it would make you feel loads better." At the end of the day I realized no matter what I say, the guy is still going to drink and slowly kill himself so why not speed up the process, get a better high and die quicker, am I wrong?

However, he's still around and still claims that he's trying to quit. The other day I come home wasted and he's wasted and he's going on and on about how tomorrow he'll quit. Alright Alister (it's the whitest name I could think of) I believe that you truly want to quit. Then the dude threw me a curve ball. He said "bro I can't do this alone, could you stop drinking as long as I can, it'll be motivation." Umm I don't see how me not drinking has any affect on your Ernest Hemingway imitating ass but fine Alister I'll stop as long as you stop" Then it hit me, what the fuck did I just do? For starters, do I look like the type that should be counseling an alcoholic. Can any of y'all see me on Intervention telling families to read their letters to their loved ones and stop enabling people. Here I am telling a guy that he should shoot heroin and end his life quicker and he's telling me he needs me to stop drinking alcohol. 

Today, 13 hours after we made the deal this guy hit the beers. His excuse: "Hey man I had 4 left in the fridge, I had to get them out of there and a little bit of Vodka left over, I wanted to return the empties. Fuck you honky if your ass really wanted to quit you'd either give them away or pour that shit down the sink. However I realized something today, if you know someone suffering and there is no way they can recover, just enable them. This week I'm going to call the dude up and start telling him to drink more, break his old records. (He counts each beer and gets through about 460 per month). I'm going to tell the guy "if you aren't a pussy for the month of December you'll reach 520." I mean there is nothing I can possibly do to help the guy. There's nothing he could do to stop, he clearly can't/won't stop. Why not force the train-wreck and take him out his misery and at the same time have a scary story to tell my grandchildren during Halloween. "Hey kids did you know I once helped kill a man!" Chug another one Alister you could do it!

Recapping the Night: Won't complain I made money but the game did hurt once it was all said and done. Glad I still got the push though. Congrats to everyone that cashed in.
