fracas

Once upon a time fraccy was a teenager. A dumb, stupid teenager just like all the dumb stupid teenagers are now. Don’t be offended if I call you one… if you are… I was one too. The good news is that in most cases, it’s a temporary thing.

So there I was, dumb and stupid (you did get that, right?) and a teenager… and my friends thought it would be good to get drunk. On extremely cheap wine and white rum.

Yes, I know you’re laughing right now because you know what happened next.

I’ll just be blunt. It’s called vomit.

It is part of the reason I do not get “drunk” as an adult. I didn’t like it, didn’t like being out of control of myself, and didn’t like throwing up in the bushes. It’s really not my best look.

So this new thing with O.J. Simpson has me recalling those horrid, horrid days as a teen, and for the same reason. When something makes me sick enough to vomit, I often can’t stand to consume that item again. To this day I don’t drink really cheap wine (okay… it was called Baby Duck and you won’t know what that is unless you’re a Canadian child of the 70’s)  and I don’t drink white rum. To be blunt (since I’ve been blunt in this post already) O.J. Simpson makes me sick, and that really makes me angry because I liked orange juice.

But honestly, hearing about him all over again is making me sick. And that makes me really fraccing angry, because as I mentioned earlier, sick is not my best look.

Read the series for yourself. Or check out the other news items. I’ve got to go get a bucket.

Please, feel free to comment, but if O.J. makes you sick too, would you mind bringing along a wee garbage pail (lined with plastic if you don’t mind) just in case? I’m rather proud of the fracas blog, and would hate to see any “accidents” happen here but I really do understand that some people things people make a person so sick, it just happens and they can’t help it.
