it's a love/hate kind of thing.


I used to hold hate in pretty high regard. When I was 16 or 17 I really enjoyed the idea of it and kind of ran with it for a few years. If you hated everyone you didn’t really have to give a shit how you felt about what they thought. I was never vocal about it, I mostly kept it all inside and only told a few of my friends about how the way I felt. Looking back on it now I realize that was a pretty silly way to think about things. I had no reason to hate. Not a single one. It was just easy and kind of fun.

Nowadays I’m relaxed in my thinkings and much more open to other people’s ideas and feelings. Hate takes so much time and energy that could be put towards more worthwhile things.

I’ve also noticed that a lot of people are about hating everyone and everything these days. I don’t know if it’s just some sort of façade, like a trend or some shit like that. When I first moved to Salt Lake I remember the first couple summers people were all about that ELE. I don’t know if it was 2012 or the terrible winter we had but I feel people are just more prone to saying “fuck you” rather than trying to be friendly.  When my friends and I would go out for drinks in a packed bar on Friday night we would get smiles, polite head nods, “excuse mes”, etc. The same friends and I can’t go out to a bar recently without getting a crusty ass-eating glare from some dickhead, his ugly girlfriend and all 6 of their dipshit friends. And see what that does! That kind of rubs off on me and I get to hating. I catch myself talking trash about random people when I’m out and about. And I blame all you dicks who are being dicks, you make me act like a dick! Don't be a dick!

I guess the point I’m trying to make is that I just want everyone to be cool again. Can we all just go grab beers and laugh and make fun of each other this summer? Like old times?

I’m keeping my hopes high that this summer is hot and long and that it melts this wicked Utah winter ice from everyone’s disgusting black hearts.
