why didn't he stop drinking and start going to the gym?
>>129873014Because he was a pathetic sadsack
>>129873014because you realize that wasting 1000s of hours of your life going to the gym is dumber than getting drunk
>>129873096this
>>129873096Hecking TRUE the whole idea of "self improvement" is super gross honestly, not to mention rooted in white supremacy. We're literally just space dust lmao there's no reason we shouldn't just drink and watch porn all day. Take this one measly (you) my good sir, you've earned it!

>>129875897edit: wow! thanks for the gold, kind stranger!
>>129873014Because he was too busy asking Chiba to "Come here and give daddy a kiss muaaaaah"*Stab**Stab**Stab**Stab*"oh no im a nurse and he can die from exsanguination"
He did quit drinking. Quitting cold turkey honestly probably did more damage than good
>>129877475Hey man btw, don't ever quit drinking cold turkey -- a lot of people are dying from withdrawls now, its a real thing.There was a bit more context in the 2009 "Searching for elliott" doc, his friends opened up on a bunch of personal stories and conversations he had when he was drinking the beers and chasing the dragon..I dont think hitting the Gym was gonna undo all the cigarettes and heroin he smoked tho.

>>129873096How many hours of your life have you spent masturbating to anime girls and arguing with strangers on the internet, anon
>>129879487both are better than going to the g*m
>>129873096As someone who doubled down on lifting to distracted with alcohol withdrawal, I can confirm that it's not a waste of time and you've never done more than 10 pushups in a row in your life.
>>129879454Phoebe Bridgers tried really hard ok?
>>129879677she didn't have the talent and inner beauty to make music like elliott smith
