This is like the one thing I didn't respect about him. Way too much cocaine and scotch, not NEARLY enough grass and bourbon. I mean come the gently caress on? What year is it? 1970?

Well at least he got 7 hours of sleep. And maybe saw the sunrise before he went to bed.

One of the shittiest things about the ban on take away alcohol sales after 10 pm is no longer being able to go and get more alcohol when you realise the case of bourbon you bought at 8.30 is not going to be the last one you'll need for the night. We always used to manage to squeak in just before midnight but apparently we're incapable of getting our poo poo together to get to the bottle shop by 10.

I've seen people eat that amount on the way home after a night on the booze.

Notice it was also really his only meal for the day.

Insane as his drug use really was, and especially his benders, I thought it was pretty well established that he used to both exaggerate it himself and deliberately ham it up whenever people were riding along for "a day in the life of HST" type stories.

Fear & Loathing in Las Vegas and The Rum Diary are decent enough, even if you don't care about Nixon or politics. Probs why they made movies of those two

Some of his stuff is really good. I like The Great Shark Hunt because it includes some of his more serious work. I'm not a huge fan of the stuff which is mostly about himself and found Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas even more terrible as a movie than it was as a book.

Read Strange Rumblings in Aztlan some time. It's one of his finest works and, ironically, the story which was the reason behind the infamous trip to Las Vegas.

Nah, how good or bad a movie is usually has little to do with how good or bad the work on which it is based was.

I had a supermarket about 20 feet from my front door and I used to go down at about 9:55 to get my stuff. Gotta be careful with that poo poo. You can be in line and if the clock hits 10pm you're hosed. My friends say to go at 9:30, but they are weak and know nothing.
