The Why
- Randy Rawlings
- New York, New York
- A few years ago, Mike Gundy ranted “I'm a man, I'm 40!”. A few months ago, three asshole kids hanging outside Lit spied my flannel and asked if I was going to the lumberjack convention. I told them a weak insult like that disgraced the storied tradition of asshole kids hanging outside Lit. Eventually, one called me “fat Bruce Springsteen”, which was pretty good, but otherwise their performance spoke poorly for the state of shiftless youth. When I said as much, one angrily yelled, “Fuck you! You're old. You're 30.” I'm actually older, but I'm not 40 yet. So I'm going to write this thing. I should probably call it “Fat Bruce Springsteen”, but...no.
