Chances are you won't either.
I tried to start this post 20 different ways. You're looking at attempt # 21.
I'm not kidding.
Something deep has been on my mind. Not life ; Mike Tyson.
Mike Tyson.
What?
A humble and reflective Mike Tyson said last Tuesday he's done with the "chaos" that enveloped his life and is serious about one last boxing comeback.
"I was addicted to chaos and that's why I've had a very difficult time settling into the person I am now," he said. "I never allowed chaos to stop being in my presence. Chaos was a really big influence on me."
I really have no idea why this is important, but Mike Tyson is notorious for his Erik-like insta-classic quotes.
Look how similar they are:
Mike Tyson: I'm a foolish man. I'm the most foolish person in the history of this sport.
Erik: I'm mad skilled. I'm the craziest cat in the history of Greece.*
* A record 2.8 seconds after this happened, Erik turned around to salute something, and tripped over nothing! He claimed there was a dent in the ground, but no one could even see it! And anyhow, how can you trip over a dent in the ground?
Mike Tyson: I have a strong internal fortitude when I'm really interested in doing something....like when I have my mind made up to make a fool of myself, I'm very successful at doing that.*
* You see? He started the quote off so well...and then eliminated any chance of people thinking that he was smart...or coherent.
Erik: I went to Manderin, and I tricked them into giving me free cake, because I said it was my birthday. Maad seen.*
Erik didn't realize that by turning 45 degrees from his window seat, he would've seen the dessert table: which featured cake. The same cake. When confronted with this, he shook his head, became visibly shaken and muttered, "You can't change me...this is total crap."
And Erik? If your parents never had children, chances are you won't either.
