"Someone I know has no self-control, therefore everyone has no self-control."

Sound reasoning.

If my choices are hapless stoner burnout or David Brooks, that is the easiest life decision I will ever have to make.

The response is satire.

When I read David Brooks piece last night, I was glad that the character of Jean-Ralphio was created by the writing staff of Parks and Recreation.

Because I had never needed a way of saying that someone is THE WOOOORST more.

Like I kept singing it in my head to not go mad.

And to be clear, I wanted it to be true too. So much.
