"It’s hard to really look at someone and go, ‘Hey, maybe something nice will happen.†I know too much about life to have any optimism. Because I know even if it’s nice, it’s going to lead to shit. I know if you smile at someone, and they smile back, you’ve just decided that something shitty is going to happen. You might have a nice couple of dates, but then she’ll stop calling you back, and that will feel shitty. Or you will date for a long time, and then she will have sex with one of your friends, or you will with one of hers, and that will be shitty. Or you will get married and it won’t work out, and you will get divorced and split your friends and money and that is horrible. OR you will meet the perfect person, who you love infinitely, and you even argue well, and you grow together and you have children and then you get old together, AND then she’s gonna DIE. That’s the best case scenario; that you’re gonna lose your best friend and then just walk home from d’agostino’s with heavy bags every day and wait for your turn to be nothing, also."
I was watching a Louis CK stand up thing, and I couldn't figure out whether I should laugh or cry.
