Re: Charlie Sheen

 Jon Cryer’s not interested. I’m guessing neither is your daughter.

Can’t fault you for getting clean, though.

That ‘Tiger Blood’ shit was a long time ago at this point, but still. Glad he’s at the stage where his past drug abuse isn’t memorable enough to still be a “meme,” yet something where people can look at him and say he’s not owed anything for behaving less revolting.

The fact it’s been so long with his career being more than over... might make it a little better. It’d come off more desperate if it was 2015. But it being 2025, doesn’t muddy all that much. There’s a generation now that doesn’t know who he is, and has no reason to know who he is, because time kept moving without Two And a Half Men being the big show on TV.

It’s still sad in a sense to just picture being a sitcom lead with millions and then pissing it all away like how he did. You could find his show as funny as a heart attack and still feel sad or embarrassed for a prick like that. But again, Two And a Half Men’s legacy is just this forgotten milquetoast racy sitcom that your local affiliate’s saddled with on weeknights.

You know the series ended with them depicting Charlie getting crushed to death by a piano? That’s the type of bridge he burned. Oh well. Fuck Chuck Lorre too, shitty hack.

I could never stand that show. I had no idea who to root for in the feud. Charlie Sheen is a monster. But when he said the show sucked he wasn't wrong.
