NOTICE. I AM HEREBY DONE WITH THIS BOAT PROJECT. I JUST ACCIDENTLY FOUND OUT THAT THE OWNER HAD BEEN THE ORIGINATOR OF A SCAM/ HOAX/ PRANK SERIOUS EXPLOSION AND INJURY AND FRANKLY I DON'T FIND ANY OF THAT ENTERTAINING, FUNNY, OR ANY OTHER POSITIVE DESCRIPTOR. I AM DONE WITH THESE PEOPLE
This was his response on the above video:
"1 ) If you can't take a joke I don't want you around. And I especially do not want you on my boat. 2 ) If you think you we are friends because you watch me in a video. We are not and that is seriously fucked up. Go make some real friends. 3 ) If you are a friend, and you got fooled by it, then you had my sincere apology, and I hope you learned the value of skepticism. If you were pretending to be a friend then I know it, because an apology is not good enough for you. So you can **** off. I don't need friends who want me to be perfect. I like friends who can **** up and apologize. I forgive them and we are better friends for it. 4 ) Living my life is such a way as to not offend anyone in order to grow a social media audience is not living my life at all. If you need someone to pamper your ***, piss off. I am not that someone. I'd rather be alone than be a slave to public opinion. But the truth is that I find myself more and more in the company of people with strong character and a self awareness that I admire. 5 ) When we are emotionally captivated, we lose the ability to think, reason, or discuss rationally. Captive is really the best word there. We can all do with more training in the ability to suppress emotions in order to think clearly. 6 ) "Time heals all wounds." -- might have been written by a geologist. Seriously, the most unhealthy thing we do is not fatty foods and alcohol. It's holding onto anger. Disassociate if need, but learning to "Let it go" is powerful medicine. So maybe you looked like a fool. Learn from it, and move on. A little skepticism is a good thing to have. Especially if you listen to the news. : )
