For those who weren't aware please let me assure you I am a selfish person. That's right, I believe in the virtue of selfishness, and I am non-repentant. If I can't, or don't, take care of myself first, then what good am I to others?  Yes, it is ok to be "selfish."

  " In popular usage, the word “selfishness” is a synonym of evil; the image it conjures is of a murderous brute who tramples over piles of corpses to achieve his own ends, who cares for no living being and pursues nothing but the gratification of the mindless whims of any immediate moment.

Yet the exact meaning and dictionary definition of the word “selfishness” is: concern with one’s own interests.

This concept does not include a moral evaluation; it does not tell us whether concern with one’s own interests is good or evil; nor does it tell us what constitutes man’s actual interests. It is the task of ethics to answer such questions."

 My interests are mine, and being a born hedonist I will pursue those interest without guilt or shame. 

My interests? The F's-- fishing, frisbee, and fucking. 

Fishing... fooling dim-witted fishes into biting a bait on the end of MY line so I can have the pleasure of the fight.. and yes, it's an unfair fight that ends in ME smacking them in the skull with the back end of a filet knife then flipping same said sharp object around, removing their flesh, and eating it. Simple pleasures.. and sustenance. 

Frisbee.. need I say more?

Fucking... as much as humanly possible, and the dirtier the better.

Who's your Daddy?! Smack!

See, the grim reaper has no interest in harvesting those that fuck like there is no tomorrow. If we can fool nature into thinking that there is even a remote chance we might be reproducing, she keeps the free-radical oxidizers at bay.

Plus, my thoughts-- if it feels good to ME (and yeah her, to a lesser extent... ha) then it has to be a positive.

News flash: God wants us to have sex A LOT and feel good and be well fed and happy. What better way to celebrate God's infinite love and wisdom than to be happy like he wishes for us... or perhaps more accurately, for ME! 

Take care of YOURSELF folks. Once you're all good, help someone else if you can. If you can't, then feeling guilty about it ain't gonna help a smidge, so feel free to toss the "Christian" guilt in the ditch (the guilt part was invented by uptight limp-dicks in 4ad).

This time last year someone helped me, because they were selfish enough to have taken care of themselves, making said help a possibility. This fine season I'm in a position to pay it forward, at least a little bit.. because yes, I'm a selfish, over-sexed brute.

The D's-- drinking, drugs and debauchery will be covered in my next entry.. god willing
