Anyone else here *not* surprised Charlie Sheen is in the hospital

[Wall-E1]

...or breathing.

Not necessarily. It hasn't stopped them from milking Michael Jackson's fame. They'll find some way to profit off of his corpse. Don't you worry.

 

[kimmar067]

...true dat. Although Charlie Sheen IS NO Michael Jackson.

 

[Wall-E1]

...true dat. Although Charlie Sheen IS NO Michael Jackson.

Not necessarily. With a briefcase full of cocaine, Charlie can moonwalk with the best of them.

 

[kimmar067]

...yeah, but that's only in his own mind.

Isn't that all that matters? Have you not seen Inception?

 

[kimmar067]

...apparently not.

Didn't Robert Downey, Jr.'s turn around happen because he was sent to jail for like a year & a half? I would say that long of a dry spell would be enough to turn anyone around.

The problem seems to be that Charlie & Lindsay aren't sent away - to either jail or rehab LONG ENOUGH to detox and be sober for enough time to even contemplate what a sober life looks and feels like.

When their brain is continuously muddled in that drug induced soup and their environment is filled with people egging them on to party and spend money so the others can have a good time, how can they think clearly enough to stop?

I'm sure Robert Downey, Jr. didn't have the same "friends" waiting for him when he got out of jail. They had moved on to party with someone else. Someone IN.

I can't speculate on what caused RDJ to turn his life around. Maybe jail was his rock bottom.

All I know is that he used to be a pimple on the butt of Hollywood...a running joke...a joke of an actor...and so messed up on drugs as to be nearly unrecognizable, and somehow today he is at teh top of nearly everyone's (including mine) list of favorite stars. He's been clean and sober for a long time too.

My point in mentioning him, is that no matter how far down the self-destructive path one has gone, until that person is DEAD, there is HOPE for a turnaround. And I hope for that, for Charlie Sheen.

Well then, just to help you out here - Right now on the Disboards, we are communicating in the third level of a dream state. We are not consciousness and none of this (not even the corn) is real.

 

[kimmar067]

...wow, Jenn is such a DOWNER...luckily, I have Wall-EEEE here to help me out....

Someone can't be helped until they want help. Yes the bottom feeders make me ill but they aren't the problem, they didn't turn Charlie into an addict, Charlie turned Charlie into an addict.

I was very glad to see he is going into a rehab facility. I don't think it's his idea, I think the studio is forcing him, but I still hope he uses the opportunity wisely.

Talk about making me ill, I thought the Wacko Jacko conversations were finally over... thanks for ruining my late lunch.... blech

 

[kimmar067]

...but please, NO BEEF DEBATING.....

....well, I really do hope for all the best for Sheen - loved him in that movie with his brother where they played garbagemen...

Pu-leeeze. That was so last week. I've moved on to pork.

I hear that pork is the new bacon. So what does that make bacon previously?

I think we all hope for the best for Charlie. Part of the joking, I think, is because it so far, hasn't turned out worse. Otherwise, we'd be respectfully somber. Probably not surprised, but somber.

and none of this (not even the corn) is real.

The CORN is not real??? What the heck is fake corn?


Nevermind. I don't want to know.
