Man, this guy Cal's got a chip on his shoulder the size of a
Third-World debtor nation. You'd have to slice up his attitude with a
blow torch or something. Who died and made him so legit? He's the
kind of reformed junkie, or even casual drug user, I tend to think is
more dangerous when he/she is sober. In order to convince themselves
of their own sobriety, they keep rubbing your nose in their shrill,
sordid morality tales, only so THEY don't lapse back into their
failure to use in moderation. By making it EVERYONE'S problem, he
washes his hands of the responsibility of governing his own actions
and keeping himself clean.
