I wasn't assuming everyone had sold something, but as you can see, a lot of people in this business are former salesmen.. being interested in selling is definitely a plus in porn

It's not funny. Alcoholism is a nasty disease that is killing me and my father(currently comatose in the intensive care unit).

Sarcasm, sardonism, pessimism....these are my ways of handling the situations. It was only meant as uneasy humour...I'm sorry if I offended you or anyone struggling with this disease. In all honesty, it is not something to be taken lightly.

oh hon.. I wasn't offended in the least bit!.. I was just picking up on what you were saying, and feeling sorry for you, because I know how hard it is. Sometimes I think if people bring something up like that, it means they want to talk about it.. I know I did, and talking about it is what helped me stop

The worst thing I have sold in my whole life was...

..frozen meat from the back of a van

I was waiting for my visa and was not able to work. No money left so I had to find something to do. Down in San Jose, CA there was this guy that had 5-6 vans with a big freezer in the back. It was just to drive around in the suburbs and sell meat to people.
Fucking worst thing I have ever done
