people adoption skins
Almost as soon as I went vegan, people started telling me that my skin looked great, and that I appeared younger, slimmer, and healthier. I'm convinced that of all the changes I've made to my lifestyle, it's the adoption of a vegan diet that has been best for me - physically, mentally, and certainly spiritually.
motivation lifestyle compassionate
Regardless of anyone's dietary motivations, the healthiest lifestyle is the one that's most compassionate.
belonged
The psychiatric ward was a really creepy place and, hindsight being 20/20, the creepiest thing about it was that I truly belonged there.
people
I think people will be surprised to find that I'm not as much of an idiot as they think I am. I'm not a real moron.
viewed
The idea is to improve somebody's day. That's how I've always viewed my job. I'm a distraction therapist. I make people's problems go away for just a little bit.
blaze fading finding guess hard imagined life obscurity peace somehow sort worked
I guess I just always imagined that I was going to die, like, somehow on top. I was going to, like, go out in some sort of blaze of glory. I never thought about sort of fading into obscurity. And I've worked so hard at having a life, an identity, in obscurity and finding peace with that.
attention deal span youtube
I'm the perfect kind of personality for making YouTube videos. I deal in short attention span theater. I do wild things.
lecturing people personally telling terribly vegan
I don't go around lecturing people and telling them they shouldn't eat meat. I just don't think that's terribly effective. I just try to tell people how I have personally benefitted from the vegan lifestyle.
acting anybody audition believe failed funny lines music nice together
At this point, I've really failed at a lot of things. It's nice to be able to say that, in a way. I've failed at music. I've failed at dance. And acting - there have been times when I went out and read lines to audition for acting parts. I believe that if anybody wrangled together those audition tapes, it would be pretty hysterically funny.
anybody obviously people staying supportive
Anybody that's not supportive of me staying sober obviously has to go. But on the other hand, there are not really a lot of people who don't want me to stay sober. I was a nightmare.
care people
I don't care if people think I'm boring.
began closet corporate dad fifteen filming skateboard video videos won
When I was fifteen years old, my dad won a video camera in a corporate golf tournament. I snatched it from his closet and began filming skateboard videos with my friends.
difference ethical
There really is no ethical difference between eating a cat or a chicken, a dog or a pig.
time
I keep my iPod on shuffle most of the time, but I'm most into Cirque du Soleil soundtracks.
