I hurt myself today. To see if I still feel.
“That’s right. Sometimes the world gets so dark that all I can do is curl up in a dark room and listen to Trent Reznor or Marilyn Manson or Barry Manillow records. Play them at really slow speeds and it sounds like Type O Negative, I promise. It’s a dark place I inhabit, and sometimes, I just need to cut.”
“No, not me, that would hurt. Are you crazy? No, when it gets too much, I pull out my Shun Kaji Fusion 5 Piece Knife Set and cut other things. For example, the 9” Bread knife shows my pain with each smooth slice across the loaf. I throw away the end piece the way life throws me away every day.”
Gotta love woot.
