This is a question that Chris put to me. It's another thing I have given much consideration to and I've finally come up with a response:
How old were you, ...when?
...when you started being a shitbag? My best guess would be, sometime before you started plotting to steal my stuff. That would have made you around ten (or younger) years old. However, chances are you were a little shitbag baby and have been a shitbag your whole life.
...when you would wine and cry relentlessly that I should "give" you my film? That would have been around eight to twelve years old.
...when I agreed to let you "help" me catalog my priceless collection, ...for two days? I'm pretty sure you were thirteen in 1982.
...when you ran from me like a shitbag and walked out on our first feature film production as part of your plot to defraud me? Fourteen.
...when you committed to being an asshole by refusing my calls? Fifteen.
...when you continued to run from me and be a shitbag until I caught back up with you? Seventeen.
...when you continued to run from me and be a shitbag until I caught back up with you, again? Eighteen.
...when you continued to run from me and be a shitbag until I caught back up with you, yet again? Twenty-two?
...when you heard I was STILL looking for you? Well, that was when? 2002? You would have been thirty-three.
...when you finally got laid for the first time? Who knows, maybe thirty-four or thirty-five.
...when you finally grew enough balls to lay your bullshit story on me? Thirty-six.
...when my film became yours? NEVER.
...when you eventually quit being a shitbag? MAYBE NEVER.
I don't understand your point or the relevance of your question. You have YET to do what your swore on your children's lives to do. There is no statute of limitations that says: "If you're a shitbag long enough, you become a NON-shitbag."
