FINISH the fucking story...

Had this man given himself a reprieve, of 5 minutes, even another 12 hours,
might he have then said, 'holy shit I almost pulled the trigger'....and felt
relief that he still lived.
Unfortunately he pulled the fucking trigger.
All blessings upon him if his conclusion was sound. If he was suffering, and
knew that suffering was the only future, then good. But this was a skilled
self pharmacist. If anyone knew the art of better living through chemistry,
it was this Hunter Thompson. The right amount of heroin now, the right
amount of coke then, yesterday a bit of rum....then a little weed....all is
well? I have no doubt he knew what to take and when. Thrilling! Life
inducing!
But he was so much older than I. What do I know?
He got tired of something.
What??? He wasn't turning...he felt stagnate and old. Fuckhead. He was on
the cusp of brand new celebrity if he coulda waited. I bow again. Perhaps he
knew and didn't desire. Unreal.
I cannot imagine taking my own life at this stage, and would fight to stay
alive if there was a fight to be had. What disturbs me about the likes of
Thompson is... when do you realize to *really* say it's all just fuck all,
and put the bullet in?
Eventually, all sentient mortals have to contend with their own end. Holy
fuck. Fade to black. For real.
Hunter S. Thompson will be with me...always.
....and so will nenslo.
it's just fuck all, nothing more or less.
Breathe one breath of clean night air, look upward to see one full
constellation, you've now seen what you need to see, lights out. Over n'
out. 10/4. EOT.

He probably just fell asleep on top of his .357 and pulled the trigger
during some dream of the old days. Either that or the gun went off by
accident. He was always waving it around like a baton anyway. He probably
had a deathwish. But this is a man who had "seen too much." It doesn't
surprise me at all he took the Hemingway out.

If it was true clinical depression, his central nervous system would
have been spasming, straight up. Get clued in: these monkeys that we're
riding have a mind of their own, and in a state like that it's like
being on a runaway train. If you haven't been there, it's damn difficult
to truly comprehend that point, but there it is. No different than if
he's been riding a horse that freaked, dumped and trampled the poor S.O.B.

I think he killed himself as part of a blood sacrifice in order to put
a death curse on Jerry Falwell.
It's all about balances. I say that was not a bad trade, in a twisted
way.
Not that I think Falwell's death is a sufficient price to pay. I say
it's a good trade just purely in terms of STYLE. A truly righteous
burn.

It's funny that you title this finish the fucking story. I have been
trying to wrap my head around this and I was talking to a friend last
night (who doesn't know Thompson as well) and he said that it just
wasn't the ending to the story he'd expected. I agree. HST
committing suicide isn't a total shock at the outset, but something
about it just doesn't sit right and I think this is it. I think the
fact that he DID make it past 30 and on into his 60's made me think he
was resigned to dying of natural causes.

Well, no amount of drugs is going to keep you up and around if you're
physically fucked up. From the articles I've been reading it
definitely sounds like the physical problems were probably what did
it. I can't picture a Hunter S. Thompson who can't move around and go
out and shoot guns and all that.

It's surprising to see just how many young people (myself included)
that are down for the atavistic journey into his mind and into the
mentality of the 60's. Then again, times are not so different from
the 60's now in a lot of ways. I was just thinking the other week
that Thompson would be the perfect spokesman to make a new 4th
amendment pushin light of some of the recent supreme court decisions.
Now....

I think when you are no longer capable of complete self reliance.
Remember, the man had an ego the size of a house and he loved the
outdoors and fast motorcycles and guns and all that.

The hippies are a menace in the form of an anachronism,
a noisy reminder of values gone sour and warped...of the
painful contradictions in a society conceived as a monument
to "human freedom" and "individual rights," a nation in
which all men are supposedly "created free and equal"...a
nation that any thinking hippy will insist has become a
fear-oriented "warfare state" that can no longer afford
to tolerate even the minor aberrations that go along
with "individual freedom". -Hunter S. Thompson
