I had a ridiculous amount of fake friends and most of 'em used the shit out of me. I remember sitting around my house one night when a dude who lived a mile down the street (who I had only met a few times) knocked on the door with his girlfriend. He was like, "see? I told you I knew this guy. We're really good friends." Then he winked at me and they left. I was like, "WTF?" People used to come over, party at my place, drink my booze, trash my house, and then leave without even cleaning up. I put it up with it for a while since some of the chicks were cute but then I shut that operation down. Anyway, as I said, I was very far from a real celebrity but, as Mike Savage said on his radio show once, even if you're a piece of shit F-list celebrity you'll always have at least somebody trying to use you for something. It really put things into perspective for me and made me feel for some of these real celebrities. I couldn't imagine having my every move scrutinized and plastered all over the news. I never thought I'd find myself sympathizing with that Britney Spears retard but I actually did. Long story short, I started turning down show offers and faded back into obscurity where I belong.
it takes a certain type of person that can deal with that stuff
