Just got sent a picture of Bourdain in the chipper(fish n chip shop) beside Whelans here in Dublin. I lived out of that place for 5 years while working in Whelans. Wondering now if I ever served him a pint and didn’t know.

I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

When I was eight years old, I went to visit my grandparents in AZ. I got a pair of leather cowboy boots, and just couldn't wait to wear them to school when I got back home. I thought I'd be a real cowboy in my classmates' eyes.

Instead they all laughed at me, the entire classroom, all at once. During the barrage of laughter, my second-grade teacher said "Well howdy pardner, where's your spurs?" This propelled my classmates into rabid cackling.

All I could do was put my head down on my desk and cry.

Not only did I never wear those boots again, but I truly believe that it was this very moment that prompted me to take a conservative tact with my attire from then on...

Where were you then, Joseph? Where was your empathy for little Trag and his cowboy boots? Think of how much more colorful my life may be had you seen my childhood suffering on Instagram.
Heart breaking.
