It would make you laugh, and cry and bang your head or slam-dance. My love life would be a laugh track from a cheesy 1980’s sitcom. Most of my hobbies would do well with a slapstick reel. Don’t even think about family reunions, banjos would be the least of it. Dancing? I don’t. You’ll thank me later.

Now work, that’s another subject. Heavy metal and thrash or speed metal. Angry music. Metalica and Disturbed hammering out a beat and scream singing, with explosions and sirens blaring in the background. Motorcycles roaring and salsa with pretty girls dancing on the bar. I had a lot of fun at work. Throw in some rowdy country music and me yelling, “Hey guys, watch this.” and a few yee-haws to make it feel authentic.
