Cruel Irony

Guy: Ever since I started this new job, all I do is work and sleep...it sucks.

Me: Well, you should go out then. Or become a hermit. Those Unibomber guys who live in a shack in the woods always live to a ripe old age.

Guy: Yeah, my friend and I always used to talk about that, that we were the ones that hated life, so we would probably live to be a hundred.

Me: That's true. It's the "I love life/Everything is Sunshine" annoying people that end up getting hit by a bus when they're...

Guy: ...Chasing butterflies or some shit.

Me: Exactly! And then you see those people on the news who are 108 years-old..

Guy: ...Or they're getting their birthday wishes from Willard Scott...

Me: ...and they always have that look on their face, that "fuck all of you" look. It's their contempt for mankind that keeps them alive.

Guy: It's their passion.

Me: And everyone needs a passion in life, even if it is hating all other living things.
