Here are some super effective ways to look cool and detached tomorrow
1. Tell anyone and everyone that you have no idea who is playing in the Super Bowl this year. It’s especially undouchey to say it to someone that you know likes football.
2. Call it “THE SPORTS” or “SPORTSBALL.” LOL!
3. Do a John Madden impression, even though he doesn’t actually use those mannerisms.
4. Engage in that one thing you like that might not be universally enjoyable but has meaning to you, and you think it’s ironic that people who try to make themselves feel smarter or more sophisticated by shitting on it and implying that people who do like it are neanderthals actually just look really fucking stupid.
5. Put a fucking sock in it

Oh hey, It’s been awhile.
My friend put this on me. “MadMan - Existential Exits” is a great, heartbreaking comic that I’ve long held in high regard, so I got part of the cover burned onto me, because that’s what I do when I like things.
It’s been a hard day for the world, but here we all are. It’s a more poignant piece than I could have ever imagined.

Dear Person
It’s difficult to overstate my love for this wonderful letter of thanks, written in 1982 by the late Jack Lemmon. It was sent to friend and fellow actor, Burt Reynolds, in response to a donation made to the Jack Lemmon Burn Center—one can only hope that Lemmon thanked all donors in a similarly amusing manner.
This precious letter is currently being sold at auction.
Transcript follows.

June 7, 1982
Dear Person:
It has come to my attention that you sent a contribution of $10,000 to the Jack Lemmon Burn Center in the Children’s Hospital of Buffalo.
I just wanted to say that I’m sorry that you couldn’t come up with a sizable contribution, but God knows after all these years I, as much as anyone, understand the ups and downs of this crazy business. Some years are good, some years are bad, and even though you’re obviously on the shit list, I certainly appreciate the fact that you made some kind of effort no matter how meager.
I do think it is important for me to clarify an area of possible confusion on your part. Burn Centre has nothing to do with critical reaction to your work. However, it’s too fucking late so we’re going to keep the money and help a hell of a lot of kids.
One of these days I’m going to work with you even if it kills me (and it probably will).
Many thanks, and love,
(Signed)
