Ben’s brother

I try to keep my drunk brother out of jail. My name is Byron.

Boating licenses. Because #CAGov doesn't believe in fun unless it's regulated heavily. https://t.co/YiBOu7sgr5 #LessGovMoreFun

@Bensgonecoastal The werewolf look is popular?

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal Remember he’s almost always got a cigarette in his mouth so it actually sounds more like “wuhh ooo mmm mmm lucky uurrmm” … the surprising part is sometimes they go with him

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal Here’s what’s gonna happen. He’s gonna have a few beers and get stoned and then he’ll say the dollar stores too busy and then he’ll drink and smoke more. And later he’ll try to get me to drive him to the casino

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal I think it’s safe to say his next job won’t be in sales

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal They don’t spend half their paycheck on cigarettes, drugs and hookers

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@PortamentoCurve @Bensgonecoastal He probably won’t even notice you walked away. You’ll get back and he’ll still be yammering

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal He has a sense of humor and a nice drawl but don’t expect him to pay his rent on time or clean up after himself. And your house is gonna smell like cigarettes and weed

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal He has a suspended drivers license and he already smokes like a chimney

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal The man has two drinks in front of him and he’s holding a weed pen …

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal And your little brother would hafta wanna move there if you want someone to watch your kid when you’re at the mine

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@PortamentoCurve @Bensgonecoastal Thanks man. I’m headed to Arizona with my niece for turkey day.

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

Y’all probly wonder who I am because my brother @Bensgonecoastal posts a lot. I’m 31 and I do tech support. Technically I’m Ben’s half brother. I work from home, and I’m like a second dad to my niece. I also try to keep Ben out of jail. It’s a tough job.

@Bensgonecoastal Drive safe dude and don’t get your cousin in trouble

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal Only difference is in real life it’s all one long rambling sentence with puffs of smoke coming out his nose

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@Bensgonecoastal If you stopped and talked to him first he’d have chatted you up for 5 or 10 mins and tried to charm you with his drawl and country boy in the big city shtick. Then he’d have asked you for money and cigarettes and if you’d take him home with you. And sometimes ppl said yes lol

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

Growing up Ben was my cool big brother. He always stuck up for me if anyone picked on me. Later on I’ve been the one that’s visited him in jail and tries to help him stay clean. I also used to drive a tourist boat in Cali. That was fun. I miss that.

@PortamentoCurve @Bensgonecoastal If you walked by and started talking to him expect a lot of incoherent mumbling, smoke coming out his nose and dirty jokes but most people like him anyway because you can tell he has a big heart

[Ben’s brother @benskeeper]

@PortamentoCurve @Bensgonecoastal Thanks man. I know it means a lot to my brother that people read his posts. And he’s a sweet, smart, funny man. But living with him ain’t the easiest 😭😭😭
