Re: ADHD Journeys and the Unbelievers

Heh, it’s weird how we do have such a quirky perspective on things, and we’re able to see something funny out of nearly all situations…the sheer absurdity of life alone could amuse me all day every day! It’s amazing that most people are just oblivious to it!

I was thinking this morning of a time back in the 90’s when I was by myself waiting to be admitted into one of those ultra-cool kinda undergound nightclubs at about 7 in the morning…yes, I was in lala land, but I had my wits about me. Anyway, this big ape bouncer had popped out to greet the diehards from the other clubs that were arriving, and as everybody was trying their hardest to be ‘cool’ I just pissed myself laughing as I gawped at him pointing at his chest. He had no shirt on under his big jacket and his inflated chest had been burnished with coconut oil, or something shiny. I just couldn’t help laughing at this big poser! It wasn’t a malicious mocking laugh, just a laugh at how ridiculous he looked. Even his doltish glare couldn’t stop me, in fact it made me laugh louder, and he sort of slunk back inside to hopefully put a shirt on or something…meh, the stuff that makes me laugh! Another time I’d had this weird trip, and I was playing pool with some hookers that I knew and some of the local riff raff, when a bouncer that we all knew called ‘Tiny’ joined us. I had heard earlier in the night that he’d been overly affectionate to some drag queens, and I was laughing so much that I was on the ground for quite a long period of time. My body ached from laughing! He was suspiscous at my laughing, and try as I might to ask him about it, I just couldn’t utter a single word before I exploded into laughter again! Man, if that big dumb ox had have known what I was laughing about I would have woken up in an ICU at the Royal Melbourne Hospital a week or so later! 😆
