4/6.

I like it when I meet an older person who is incredibly boring and has nothing particularly interesting to say. Sure, they're fine people. But when it comes down to it, they're just lifeless and uninteresting. I wonder if they've been like that their whole lives. I wonder if they were those kids who constantly talked about their arching classes and never really laughed at jokes because they were offensive or distasteful. I wonder if maybe they found the love of his life because they were once smart and interesting young go-getters that had lost their spark, or because they got a little lucky and found an equally boring love.

And while they yap on and on about useless shit and drone on and on with a bored tone, I just wonder about how they were when they were my age. And if they dreamed of maybe being a doctor, or of joining the Peace Corps. And I just remind myself that I must never let myself get as boring as they are.

In the meantime I'm taking requests as to what song I want to humiliate myself across the internet with.
