      By realizing that death is just another scary story someone told you. Show us some proof that you must die. We'll wait.........come on, show us the proof. Nope, that just means that other people die. When have you died before? Trust in consciousness. It goes on and on and on.

      Nothing but feel more deeply. Dive into the sensations and feelings that course through you while you experience what you call "missing." Also, stop using euphemisms like dearly departed. Your friends died, they didn't dearly depart. Using accurate and concise language will help you to understand your experience more clearly.

      When you have made a deliberate decision to do so, not out of compulsion, but out of serious intent. This is not intended as legal advice. You must take responsibility for all of your actions. Whatever you do, you will be held responsible for the consequences of your actions. Remember that before you do something stupid.

      Aloe, stupid. Take cold showers too. In fact, take cold showers every single day, no matter what. You'll live longer.

      Sing more. Put music on in the background more often. Break into song while going about your day to day activities. Simple as that.

    12. Dear Assholes

      Your question has absolutely no meaning at all. Nothing matters. And it doesn't matter that nothing matters. Follow your joy, or not. Follow your bliss, or not. Do something, or don't do anything at all. Whatever you do, just.........

      Do you think Gawd will smite you if you include the "o" in the word? If your god has rules as ridiculous and arbitrary as that, he would already have smote you for putting the "o" in "cosmic muffin." I happen to worship a particular goddess who has her existence here in the physical world. I make love to her often. Maybe sometime I'll refer to a certain delightful part of her anatomy as the "cosmic muff." I think she'll get a kick outta that.

      Assholes don't get embarrassed. If they do feel the occasional embarrassment, it comes from NOT saying whatever the hell they want to say.

    15. Dear Assholes

      Say nothing. Accept your sister as you find her, now, without trying to change her. Encourage her to get more of what she really wants. Enjoy the time she chooses to spend with you. The more you attempt to change her, the less she will want anything to do with you. How would you feel if she called your husband a douchebag scam artist? Don't repress your feelings about the situation, but don't attempt to control her life either. Maybe she has different wants, needs and desires. Who are you to decide?

      You eat what you want, let her eat what she wants. If you enjoy spending time with her, do so. If not, what the hell are you complaining about?

    16. Dear Assholes

      If you want to have a profound effect on these students, and you might be the only person who ever does this, you should bring in a stack of second grade level books for them to read.

      You will need to shock them if you want to have any effect at all. Tell them you are meeting them at their level. Tell them it is not their fault that they have ended up that way, but now you are presenting them with a choice. If they choose to not take advantage of the opportunity you have presented them they will have only themselves to blame.

      It may be difficult for them to accept, but due to the shock you have delivered, they now have a chance to accelerate their learning with focused attention.

      Get them to read empowering books at a level just above their ability. Their brains will thirst for such real information that they will find the tools to grasp the new materials you have provided them.

      Increase the difficulties in proportion to what they can handle, but always keep it just above their ability. Get them to write analyses of the books you have assigned and to write about the difference between college level writing and the books they are now being forced to read.

      Good luck,

      -Mr.G

      I nearly melted myself into a hot spring in the middle of the wilderness in Oregon many years ago. Someone stopped me just before I had completed the process. I had only one chance to accomplish my desire to become a hot spring, and I failed due to a lack of concentrated attention.

      Yes, you could turn back into a mud puddle, but the confusion exuding from your ill-formed question leads me to say that you will never make it unless you train that attention of yours to have a hell of a lot more focus.

      Oh yeah, and there were the drugs.

      The absolute worst thing that can happen in this case is you feeling guilty over not paying it. That guilt is an indicator that you are the proud owner of an installed program that is currently directing you with powerful and compulsive emotional states. Most of the purchases you made on the credit card also came about due to just that same program.

      If you want to keep your credit record looking good for some reason, there are many ways, legitimate and illegitimate to do so, but those are not within the scope of this advice column. You'll have to figure that shit out on your own.

      The full extent of what can happen to you is basically abuse by way of phone calls and a full on paper assault via the U.S. Mail. In addition, you can expect creditors and people who rely on that information to judge your character to give you mean looks and deny you things you might want because you failed to pay.

      Too bad you won't be able to get that shitty apartment, idiotic new car loan, or that job at the chain convenience store. Maybe its finally time for you to look into adding real value to your own life in the form of hustling or entrepreneurial activity.

      Would it kill you to start doing something that makes you happy a little each day? Stop fucking worrying about the credit card. Stop worrying at all, and create a better life for yourself where you have real concerns, like following pursuits that actually bring you joy instead of dodging life by enslaving yourself to shit and people you never chose to engage with in the first place.

      Enjoy,

      -Mr.G

      You are under 25. This sentiment is common among young women who think that all men are overgrown manchildren and cannot imagine turning their womb over to host their unholy demon seed.

      You will one day look forward to hosting a small alien fetus. Name it Rex.

      Truly Yours,
      Rex Powers
