During his stay he ran into various wacky people, and managed to create a bit of mischief himself. As he describes it:
"During my formerly frequent stays to various psychiatric facilities in NJ, I've met quite a few characters. They've ranged from scary violent psychos, to hilariously deranged schizophrenics, to the just plain bizarre. That statement also includes some of the people who worked there. Sometimes, the staff is just on the wrong side of the desk.
Needless to say, each separate hospitalization was a truly unique experience. That's right, the hospital can be fun."<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Its a very, very funny read.. My favorite stories are the ones involving Sherry. And the moral of the story kids: Don't date chicks you meet in the mental ward.

"Jesus Christ, Mike, ****ing Sherry called me and told me she was going to stick a hot fireplace poker up my (rhymes with swat) if I ever called you again"
ahahahahahaha
I don't know wether to pitty you or to laugh at you and pitty you at the same time...
I wanna make a movie of this... This sounds like a good movie, rite?
That said, that was a wonderful read.
Yeah <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Not anymore.
May just be the NJ area she is considred odd. Here, she would fit in perfectly. A lot of the real women are the cursing, **** whooping type. I still like the psycho marine one the best.
Reminds me of Forrest Gump, but funnier and crazier and bad-wordier.
Absolutely brilliant.
Oh, and the best was the story about Jamie. When I have kids, I'll tell them that story and say, "...And that's why it's important to take baths and brush your teeth and be potty-trained!" <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin.gif' /><!--endemo-->
btw funny stories...
Y'see doom, your perspective is skewed towards observing females whilst they're in direct contact with your person. This will naturally alter any behaviour observed.
The psyco marine dude is the best.
--Scythe--
but PFC Michael is great too.
hm..
is it just me, or does sherry sound like she'd be a GREAT lay?
Gold.
Comedy Gold.
Still, I have to wonder whatever happened to Sherry? They seemed like good friends and those were my favorite stories. Perhaps they still keep in touch?
