Stuff I Regret

Flying Kangaroo

I regret starting up my own religion and I swear to the almighty kangaroo goddess that it will never happen again…

I regret blowing all my money on Doc Savage books as a teenager when there were perfectly good prostitutes within walking distance.

I regret that time when I picked a fight with a tractor.

I regret ever saying, “Of course I’ll be in the delivery room when our son is born”

I regret not spending more time with my children despite their pleas that I “give them some space”.

I regret concentrating too much on the material world and not enough on my hallucinations.

I regret going to that singles bar because everyone there was married and they only took one dollar bills.

I regret eating all that paste in kindergarten because now my gall bladder is permanently attached to my small intestine.

I regret legally changing my name to “Mr. Perfect” because it gave people unrealistic expectations…

  1. I read that Nathan Hale probably never said “I regret that I have but one life to lose for my country.” I find that so disillusioning that I’m wondering if you really regret what you may or may not have said.

    1. That reminds me of Eddie Izzard’s routine on “give me liberty or give me death”. He reflects on what would’ve happened if the colonials had lost. Patrick Henry – “Death? No, I said ‘Beth'”
