I didn't know Charlie Sheen was going on tour to 'tell the true story' about, I reckon, his now infamous rants.
Apparently his show in Detroit was a bomb.
Humans, as in all of us, are wretched little creatures. People paid to go watch Sheen in hopes of getting a glimpse of his lunacy live. And this mentality is different from attending the Coloseum how?
Maybe it's just me. Maybe I just know to what point I feel entertainment ceases to be such.
Sheen's tour also shows the inherent unfairness of life and how the attempt to equalize it is foolish and bound to disappoint.
Two and a half men was an enormously popular show and his actions cost a lot of people their jobs. People who can't go out and sell their services like he can. It's all good for Sheen.
After all, he already got your money."
In a land where the highest ratings go to Reality shows where we watch fading movie stars and athletes dance, where we have shows like "The Price is Right", "Maury", and talk shows hosted by the moderately famous... Charlie Sheen fits right in.
