I'm a habitual liar, and I'm also dating your mom.

@mortadellman @charless_94 Didn't say it would. My situation was a bit different, but my counselor's words convinced the state to drop the charges. He had worked with the prosecutor for year before I met him. Either way, it doesn't hurt to have someone with something to lose back him up.

@Richie_nod @LeftOnRed161 I never tried one of my dad's Marlboros, but he had one of those for all of 10 minutes before I ripped it. Burnt the shit out my throat and didn't smoke again for 15 years.

JFK once invited to dinner 49 Nobel laureates, Robert Frost, William Styron, Ernest Hemingway, James Baldwin, Katherine Anne Porter, John Dos Passos, James Farrell and Lionel and Diana Trilling, and others. His line on the occasion became famous: “I think this is the most extraordinary collection of talent, of human knowledge, that has ever been gathered together at the White House—with the possible exception of when Thomas Jefferson dined alone."

Some of you were alive when that happened.

To everyone so eager to cancel someone for a tattoo they got at age 22, a drunk text, a selfie they took in the middle of a mental health crisis:

Show us your laptop.
Show us your iCloud.
Open your entire digital life to your worst enemy. No context. No filter. No explanation.

You won’t.

You won’t because you know what I know. Any one of us, frozen at our worst moment, photographed in our lowest hour, looks like a monster. Looks like a stranger. Looks like someone who deserves to be cast out.

That is not who we are.

My mom and baby sister were killed in a car accident when I was just a kid. Cancer took my brother Beau, my best friend and my rock. I battled alcoholism. I battled addiction. I chose the coward’s way out more times than I can count.

For years I believed the defining chapters of my life were written by tragedy, loss, and shame.

I no longer believe that.

Pain can shape us. Loss can humble us. Failures can leave scars that never fully fade. But none of them have the authority to define us.

And it sure as hell ain’t the critic that counts.

That authority belongs to us alone-the person in the arena.

Every setback presents a choice. Play the victim, or cut the bullshit and take ownership for who we become next.

Life does not determine our character. It reveals it.

Again and again we are asked the same question. When shit happens, what next?

We are not defined by what happened to us. We are not defined by the worst photo, the worst text, the worst tattoo, the worst night. We are defined by the person we choose to become. And by the courage to choose that person, every single day.

So before you reach for the gavel - show us your laptop.

You won’t.

The whole world saw mine. And I am still here. Still becoming. Still choosing. Still standing.

That is the only definition that matters.

@KiD_KYNG @dareal88keyz "Their tent" :/

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@KiD_KYNG @dareal88keyz Obviously, you're only going to see color here. The kid that was dumb enough to even bring a knife to a track meet is way more likely to be the issue in that situation. But you see yourself in him only because the color of his skin. A shame, but most people do it.

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@KiD_KYNG @dareal88keyz Its weird for a random to come sit next to your stuff. A person without some sort of issue would presumably ask permission. You're giving a kid that brought a knife to a track meet, and used it over a push the only benefit of doubt. His vibe was probably confrontational from rip

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@KiD_KYNG @dareal88keyz Who knows? He brought a knife with him to do it. You know what he was planning, well he got what he wanted. Now one kid is dead and he'll spend a sizeable portion of his life in prison. He played a game and everyone involved lost.

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@TrainPerception @dareal88keyz No one said free speech was wrong, I told you your ideas are akin to dog shit. That's my use of free speech. I don't take pity on Chud for creating an entire platform by being hateful. OJ walked free too, he'll have his comeuppance too one day.

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@KiD_KYNG @dareal88keyz If he was seeking shelter, why didn't he go to his team's tent then?

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@KiD_KYNG @dareal88keyz If you and your boys are set up at the park, and I come and sit with all your stuff, what are you going to do? Tell me to leave? What do you do when I start cussing and putting my hand in a bag? You gonna stand there and let me cuss you and sit next to all your stuff still?

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@TrainPerception @dareal88keyz No they really don't, most people in real life don't stand for that type of hatefulness. I'm sure the cess pools you frequent do though. Find God and get help. The world is a bit better without your ideology.

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@KiD_KYNG @dareal88keyz I don't care if you're black as coal, high yellow, white, brown, orange or purple. I still see the injustice of the world. Maybe I haven't lived your pain, but I've felt it. If you see someone that looks like you, and side with them despite the evidence, you're the problem.

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@TrainPerception @dareal88keyz Shocker you use a burner. Too scared to let your shitty opinions loose on the Internet. Hope your life goes better soon, God bless!

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@KiD_KYNG @dareal88keyz In his team's tent? Be serious man. Racial issues are alive and well. Didn't stand on this hill. Just weakens your argument for the real injustice.

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@ytTakingL @theayatolluhhh @thisissavvy1 @ytTakingL How unhappy with your life do you have to be to talk like that with a burner? Do you think anonymity gives you strength? You talk about Hell like you believe in it, I hope you learn to believe in Jesus. God bless!

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@gothamsfinestt @Puritanbob @Strittposter More pathetic than having such strong opinions on how someone else loves their wife? Lol

[Eli Fayne @Thekingdog9]

@Puritanbob @Strittposter Nah, I'll call cap. The random who uses a burner and uses the word cuck to describe someone not wanting to let their wife suffer in life alone; that person isn't happily married. I doubt you're even married, but definitely not happy. God bless!
