One Trick Phony

I hate one trick phonies.

These detestable delinquents make up the majority of our older generation, but the occasional exception can be noticed (very conspicuously) among us.

The phony has but only one of everything; One particular like, one particular rant, one particular experience, one particular lament, one particular strength. These are the people that constantly fail to renew themselves and commit the same sins of repetition over and over again.

They have 1 hobby, 1 field of interest, 1 specialty. They can only do 1 task distinguishably. They monotone about utter simplicity, they take things at face value. They care only about this particular topic and subject, and did i mention that they repeat it as often as i do CDs?

Picture the person who talks about 1 thing to one person, then re-hashes a carbon copy of that conversation to another unsuspecting (and potentially bored) friend. Imagine the jock that gets into RJ only because of his sporting prowess. Visualise the yuppie who cares only about ascending the corporate ladder. What about the grandmother that obsesses over what the family eats for dinner every night?

They are to me, the epitomy of failure in a human being. They are the decrepit scum of the earth. They are pitiful yet undeserving of our pity. They are everyone around us.

They are me.

We all need change in our life. We need to be well-rounded and cannot rely on academics or sports alone. I need guidance, i think we all do.
