CLIP DESCRIPTION:
Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale) describes his morning routine of vanity.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Bret Easton Ellis's dark and violent satire of America in the 1980s is brought to the screen in this unsettling drama with blackly comic overtones. Patrick Bateman (Christian Bale), the son of a wealthy Wall Street financier, is pursuing his own lucrative career with his father's firm. Bateman is the prototypical yuppie, obsessed with success, fashion, and style. He is also a serial killer who murders, rapes, and mutilates both strangers and acquaintances without provocation or reason. Donald Kimble (Willem Dafoe), a police detective, questions Bateman about the disappearance of Paul Allen (Jared Leto), whom Patrick murdered several days earlier. As Kimble stays on Bateman's trail, Bateman's mask of studied, distant cool begins to fall apart. American Psycho also features Reese Witherspoon as Bateman's girlfriend, as well as Samantha Mathis, Chloe Sevigny, and Guinevere Turner; the latter also co-authored the screenplay. Controversy followed the production from the start, when speculation that Leonardo Di Caprio would play Bateman sparked concerns that he would lure preteens to an R-rated movie. Di Caprio soon bowed out of the project, and original leading man Bale was reinstated. Later, a group of Toronto residents attempted to block filming in that city after Canadian serial killer Paul Bernardo claimed that Ellis's novel inspired his murder spree.

Literally Dre Drexler's "Epic Morning Routine"
Well, he is simply being healthy. Skin does matter. There are issues that come from poor habits. I follow these and so I have no issues with painful blemishes, dry cracking painful skin, or sun damage.
He is just ALSO a psycho.
I can't believe he didn't link the products in the description box!

movie makers: "it's satire, surely no one will take it the wrong way"
beauty and fitness youtubers:
this is incredibly sad, but it is the reality
the movie is extremely ambiguous, especially towards the end
I dunno what they expected filming some of those scenes
Kinobody*
not only beauty and fitness youtubers , look at the comments down below : people want to follow this routine :/
@@AlexeiMotoRin It's a good routine..
Idk why but I love the little detail of him saying "I can do a thousand now" when talking about his stomach crunches. He isn't saying that he does a thousand every day, but that he has the capability of doing it. That sort of little narcissistic comment just adds onto the character even more.
It caught me off guard when I watched this movie for the first time because it sounds like something a child would say 😂
1000 is a lot, if you do 1/s without rest, you need to do it for 17min straight
Yes…
And how he tells us the expensive apartment where he lives at before even telling us his name
You people overthink these movies so much 🤣🤣🤣
Impressive, very nice. Let's see Paul Allen's morning routine.

I can’t believe he didn’t show his hair styling process or the hair products he uses. Maybe he’ll make a separate video for that...
In the book he talks about that too. If I remember correctly he towel dries it first then adds a healthy dose of hair mousse (This new italian hair mousse makes my hair feel weird, but it does look good). He finishes by blow drying it in place.
Cang then puts on a bit of blumann hair product (btw this video is sponsored by blumann)
Christian C This video is sponsored by BluMaan, Pete&Pedro, Shehvoo, and most of all, Tiege Hanley.
@@_catulus Alpha's product placements have really put his channel downhill tbh
Still waiting for an update on it.
In the book, he takes like 1 hour explaining his morning routine. It is obsessive.
That's the point. However, I do wish the author didn't make us go through entire chapters of Bateman describing what people are wearing. Like, I get it.
@@every_username_is_taken I actually like those contrasting bits from the book. Book Patrick thinks about murder in the same vapid and extremely specific detail as he does Joe Cocker's career, or his own morning and workout routine. While you read about the morning routine, you are understandably bored, when you read about the murder, you are understandably horrified. To Patrick, it's all the same, but to us non-insane readers, it's a wild shift that seems to come from nowhere. I actually think the boring parts elevate the horrifying parts even though they are written almost exactly the same way.
@@bluekep7740 I suppose it makes the book objectively better in that regard but it just isn't as entertaining.
@@every_username_is_taken what's the exact name of the book?
@@themenacingbeast5437 what you think it is? lol, American Psycho.
The apartment's pristine, sterile, minimalist aesthetic is completely devoid of any personal touches, more like a real estate listing than a space anyone actually lives in.
Or an influencer house.
He is just another product, everything inside the house is a product, nothing cannot be selled, Capitalism is god in the u.s and this movie shows it
Yea i feel like that's a dead giveaway this mf is coo coo his house is _too_ normal
Just as you said no personality only the essentials looks like something you'd see in a magazine.
I wonder if his space looks like that because he's insane 🤔
Like he's so crazy he's borderline obsessed with the idea of appearing normal to everyone else that it just comes off as crazy ya know?
My aunt used to live on West 81st St. Definitely not an apartment like his though.
Patrick’s home legitimately doesn’t look lived in everything from the bland furniture, generic paintings on the wall with no photos of family, girlfriend or friends and his eerily empty bedroom perfectly display how shallow he is
This is like those fake morning routine in youtube
@8_gitlion yes

Nice try Kira. Ya ain't fooling me this time.

It’s horrifying how similar this is to influencer culture on social media.

@@yeshalloween Tell me about it...this and Hellraiser really had a weird impact on me as a kid lol.
Huh?! Who let you watch this as a kid?
Hows the morning routine now?
Oh hell yeah I watched this as a kid, I thought it was supposed to be a horror movie because of the one chain saw scene, I had no idea what it was really about until now.
anyone notice how he mentioned his address before his name? he literally considers his material wealth to be more indicative of his identity than his actual name.
Interesting point
@@rohithpadikkal7082 your name has no value though. What you accomplish in life is what you look bad on and smile. Not your name lmao. Only unachievers would say otherwise
I don’t identify with my name hardly at all
Calling myself by my name feels strange to me
Because he wants..to..fit..in.
@@joys8634 The person I was and became would be what I look back on and smile. When very old people in their deathbeds express regrets for pursuing the things that only lead to more pursuit, instead of the things that made them happy, I'll take their hint. It's not the salary we remember, it's who we and everyone else were and what we became. The memories of precious moments, that's the last legacy you get to see.
i love this movie because it isn't a "psycho cliche film" that explores just the violence, but it also takes details to personality and behavior in especific situations, is like a whole profile of a psychopath, not just like most movies who treat these people as just violent and brutal
The movie has more layers than your typical psycho murderer movie, you really get to peak into the mind of a psychopath. You can tell he is a lost soul. Just emptiness.
Actually a sociopath tho
It’s because a woman wrote it
@@curvelinedotA man wrote the original novel but a woman directed the movie

What an opening to a movie.. tells us so much about the character. The way he describes doing a thousand crunches and his obsessive skin care routine, all without emotion. Perfect monologue delivery. This movie and scene will forever remain a classic.
I can do a thousand now. It's the delivery, like we should all be proud of him, almost childlike. Christian Bale was born for this role.
Whoever said that women can’t make great movies is an idiot
@@angelamunro4046 So true
Yeah Yale thing
this is like mccauleys scene from home alone but 20 years later
I noticed this small detail: while Patrick is peeling off the face mask, the music switches from a peaceful, classical piece to a mysterious and spooky screeching violin sound. This demonstrates that he has a layer he uses to make him seem like an innocent man, but once he takes that layer off, he’s the villain of this story.
Nice observation
They think every Damm detail
The narration clearly depicts his personality disorder.

I immediately thought
His monologue to Shigechi reminded me of this.
I like how he says where he lives before he even introduces himself. He's so vain and materialistic that he thinks mentioning his property is more important than his name
I mean, he's almost right though.
In the movie, names don't actually mean much as everyone keeps mistaking people for someone else...
Paul Allen mistakes him for Marcus.
Patrik Bateman mis-identifies people in the restaurants regularly.
Patrik's lawyer mistakes someone in Europe(?) for Paul Allen
I like how you copied and pasted the top comment
@@GX2re My bad. Wasn't on purpose :)
@@DivineAtheistWannabe i don’t think his lawyer mistook someone for paul allen, i think paul allen and probably/possibly the victims aren’t even dead. you see that when patrick goes back to paul’s apartment it’s all clean, there are no fbi, and the woman even says that it’s not his apartment. nobody in the apartment building comes out of the doors when the prostitute is banging on them and screaming for help, it’s all a bit ambiguous really and it’s super interesting to pick apart.
it could all be in his head, but it could also be about how people are so selfish/caught up in their own lives that they don’t even see big things in front of them. the ending reminded me of black swan and how it seemed like there was a twist and all of a sudden it was difficult to tell what was real and what was just inside his head
😂😂😂😂
I'm 25, I tried 100 stomach crunches this morning. I'm dead now.
Rip
Guessing you texting from hell now
Patrick Bateman is a psychopath so he probably doesn't feel any discomfort towards pain. He probably ignores the screams of his body and just keeps on going with the crunches.
F
@happy face wait what? I didn't know exercises had problems like that. Do you know where can I find out more about these?
I’ll admit that after I saw this scene a long time ago, I eliminated all aftershaves with alcohol from my medicine cabinet and now use a post-shave balm that not only moisturizes my skin, but also has an SPF.

@@r.d.493 I wonder if computer screens age the skin
Such a well thought out intro! Anyone else notice how Patrick introduces where he lives before who he is? Encapsulating the materialistic nature of Bateman, and how his possessions truly own him
"if you are not very careful
Your possessions will possess you
TV taught me how to feel
Now real life has no appeal"
Damn that's mad deep.@@adinakruijssen3056
I just realized that, knowing Bale, he more than likely started doing this exact routine while working on the film.
@Donald Donald He was likely using steroids for this role. Even in the book, about all male characters are casually roiding.
You can tell too bro. His body is ripped here, and his skin is the clearest I’ve ever seen. My pores are shaking and crying and throwing up rn and my zits are screaming in agony BRO
@Donald Donald you 100% sure he used steroids he is a method actor after all...???
not really. the routine is wrong. he is so materialistic that he doesnt know how wrong his routine is. the stuff he used in which order doesn’t make sense. there is a breakdown somewhere on it.
@@darthnihilus8543 In the club scene one of the guys mentions he's roiding
I like how he starts with stating where he lives before actually introducing himself. The movie is a timeless masterpiece.
And the we see his apartment before we even see him. Just goes to show how much he cares about his image
It was more important to him to let the audience know he lives in such a luxurious apartment than to know his name. That's clue #1 that he's a psycho.
You should read the audio book on audible. It's insane, compared to the book, this is Disney.

Diet exercise yoga skincare. Doesn't sound that crazy. He just doesnt allow love or affection in his life because he is too competitive. He needs to take and empathogen and talk to someone
@@guymanperson1 a lot of us don't allow love and affection in our lives due to lack of self-love yet we aren't psychopaths with pathological bloodlust, i wouldn't say that extreme bloodlust is the same as self hatered, although i can imagine bloodlust generating from self hatred, but in my opinion he's too narcissistic to hate himself
Is ice pack good ?
Honey almond scrub is soothes you're skin

Did your teacher ever question why you're name suddenly changed to Patrick Bateman or how you started monologuing about your existence?
In the books morning chapter, he talks about every single item in his apartment for pages like with the brands, models and skincare prodcts (and even comparing models). Also this part literally takes 10minutes of reading. Bateman describes every single person with their clothing (with brands and models) I mean how the hell author knew so much, it's just crazy.
Shows how much he only cares about status
The best part is that people hunted down the catalogues for those years and realised that none of the outfits make a lick of sense. The patterns, cuts and colours don't go together at all.
Bret Easton Ellis confirmed this was entirely deliberate, the endless recitation of accessories and brands throughout the novel is meant to just become meaningless noise.
I want to fit in
the Dementia Darkness Raven Way of his time
the author is a woman, hopefully that helps explain how all that is possible
I'm aware of who he is but this kinda.....inspirational.
America
In a sense, that's the point of this scene. Psychopaths, on first meeting, ARE inspirational - or at least admirable in some way. That way is superficial imagery - especially imagery that pop culture glorifies (and its opposite it highly scorns). Makes you wonder if pop culture itself is based on sociopathic values. If you got that idea, then the film did what it set out to do.
It is, I watch this every morning, it gives me a rush.
Right? Lol 😂 thought I was crazy for thinking it like that. Whenever I’m lacking at the gym I just look at this!
@@filrabat1965 It kinda is. Both psychopaths and pop culture relish in hyper-individualism.
This was made in 2000, but he's talking like one of those 'day in the life' influencers you would've start stumbling upon in 2021.
Wow. This scene is chilling. I'm glad that Christian Bale did this movie and not Leonardo DiCaprio (that's who the director originally wanted but he had other commitments). I think Bale was perfect for this role. I can't think of anyone who could have done a better job.
The perfect Batman, and the perfect Bateman😂
The director didn't want Dicaprio, she wanted Bale over him and she got sacked for it, only when Dicaprio was talked out of the role did the pair get reinstated.
I wanted to see Paul Allen do the jobb.
DiCaprio is a fine actor, to be sure...but he'd have been a lousy choice to play Bateman. His style of acting is more demonstrative, loud, even over-the-top.
Bale tends to play things at the other end of the spectrum: cold, aloof, detached, at times virtually flat-lining emotionally. These being qualities/affectations that define a soulless, self-absorbed, and narcissistic character like Patrick Bateman.
Little wonder that "American Psycho" was his breakout performance. I think it
allowed him to play to his strengths as an actor to a degree that if one didn't know any better, it wouldn't be hard to believe it was written with him in mind.
*Christian Bale's face is plain* (not saying he's ugly or average-looking but how we expect the average man should look like even though the average man is much uglier) *but not average which is perfect for the character.*
Notice how he tells us where he lives first, before his name.
the focus in both the movie and in the book, is very much on material status. we see it here in this scene, long explanations of everything he´s wearing/ using, especially the brand if it´s clothes, accessories and such.
heck at one point he´s stuffed a body in a overnight bag and is loading the bag in a car trunk, and someone he knows spots him and starts talking to him, and he´s like " ohh shit" and the person looks at the bag ( and it´s clearly not a set of golf clubs that´s in there) and the person just compliments on how the nice the bag is.
Also after he kills Paul Allen, he goes into his apartment and he feels a moment of panic realizing Paul's is more upscale than his.
valar “it’s obviously more expensive than mine” lol
Yep, the whole point of the movie/book is how a sociopath can blend in perfectly among those Wall Street executives, even though he's constantly raising red flags.
The book was so painful to read at times. So much description in what everyone was wearing and who it was made by. I get why he does it, but 400 pages of it was a little rough at times.
girls on youtube be like
+Sarah Farron so true it's scary xD
hahahaha!!
Sarah Farron hi Gasai Yuno
I know right my thought exactly
my morning routine: I wake up.
Beauty routine for a psycho killer in 2000 is a norm in 2019 for “influencers”
It's set in the late 1980's but yeah
Yep
Yep
Probably because influencers livelihood is on how good they look and this character is narcissistic and wants to look good
I was living with psychopath narciccist its so true movie, they are not like influencers who only want to show sth and share with you and of course something narcisissitic is in all of us, but these psychopaths are sth another, just read or see about narcissist. Maybe who wasnt met them cant understand.
I don’t know why but after watching this video I want to take care of my skin a lot more than I do
Same ..
@- I actually do now.
Welcome to the club.
Me too and I've started it. I'm drinking more water than anything now, I hardly drink coke anymore and stopped putting sugar in my tea. I consume a lot of anti oxidant foods such as blueberries, dark chocolate and leafy greens. After shaving I always apply moisturiser to my face and in the shower I use a milk and honey shower cream
@@electricfishfan Its not about femininity when you think about it. Just think about the fact it prevents you getting acne. Do you like getting spots and blackheads on your face? I sure as hell don't
So this is what Batman does when he's not saving the city. Intersting
Back To The Future Lover well Batman is a billionaire so you know he gotta look good 😂
Don't you mean Bateman? ;)
Patrick Batman
Bateman is just hallucinating himself to be a hero wearing a silly bat suit in an overly grim city to cope with his dark side
Beautiful, very nice.
I live in the american gardens building on W. 81st street on the 11th floor my name is Patrick Bateman I'm 27 years old. I believe in taking care of myself and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine in the morning if my Face is a little puffy I'II put on an içe pack While doing my stomach crunches I can do 1000 now
After I remove the ice pack İn the shower I use a water activated gel cleanser then a honey almond body scrub and on the face, an exfoliating gel scrub. Then I Apply an herb-mint facial mask which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine I always use an after shave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older then moisturizer then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion there is an idea of a Patrick Bateman, some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me only an entity something illusory and though I can hide my cold gaze, and you can Shake my hand and fell flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable I simply am not there
Haven’t seen this movie, but wow, what a man. Attractive, clean, determined, he’s the guy you would want your daughter to marry. Everyone should aspire to be like this gentleman.
haha, troll.
@@NickD1989 lol
He's a psychopath
Unless you dont want your daughter to be axed on her face.
Who's gonna be the one to tell him
This scene makes me want to take a shower
Me too. And i don't have a shower.
@@Embrinna you don't have a shower
@@Embrinna ???
@@primechef2433 yeah. Too bad.
I haven't taken a shower or bath for 9 months
He was so good looking and successful that he would literally blurt out that he's insane and no one would even give it a second thought.
Good looking people win
like in Gattaca ...when Ethan Hawk thinks people will recognize him and Jude Law says they won’t even see him, they will only see the credentials of his genetic make up
He is a psychopath. He lacks sympathy or any kinda feeling. He does all these still feels empty inside.
Kinda like Hannibal, he goes around telling jokes about how he kills and eats people and everyone is like, haha wow your so funny
The Ted Bundy effect.
This movie for me is by far Cristian Bale's best. The character was perfect in every way and he, with his talent, made sure it was a success. And four years later seeing him in the driver with that extreme thinness, you realize the kind of professional this guy is. Just smoke it.
You are not alone in that. People said this was "career suicide" but it was quite the opposite
@@PJ.Rob06I havent seen the film but why would it be career killing?
@@MFsecret1 That I don't know.
On paper, if he weren’t a lunatic killer, Patrick has actually very admirable qualities lol discipline to keep in top shape with rigorous exercise, health conscious diet and consistency.
Not to mention a top notch skin care routine haha
With narcissists, perception is more important than integrity or actual strength of character
you don't get it ...he doesn't really keep this routine ....this is what he tells people ...he has very little discipline that is why he boasts about this routine. He thinks this is noteworthy ...he has no sense of self ....and so he can't get out of his own way in life and causes most of his own problems but doesn't know why ...he has no character...he is so naive he doesn't even realize people feel more relaxed around those with character ...he doesn't know he should boast about how honest or kind he is ...he boasts about his morning routine which is probably not his real routine after ya know killing people the night before ..but the perception is all for him
@@silverkitty2503 lol total bs. You’ve never lived in a big city or worked in a corporate environment before. Over here, everything is about appearances and accomplishments. Everyone’s a fraud trying to look better than the next person.
It’s called being disconnected from reality and living like what he thinks is human.
All the scene Is a worship of superficiality and banality
in the 2000's only psychopaths had a skincare routine, but now everyone does
k rotciv or maybe everyone’s just a sociopath now...
@@williamwebb580 is that a reference to the daily riots in usa?
Right, I can't believe this is 8 years ago 😆
PrimeInk9734 it’s a reference to a lot of things.
@@ila_serah it is 20 years ago
does he stare at himself while he pisses every morning?
Everyone does that
Probably. His character is incredibly narcissistic.
I always do. Minus the tighty whiteys
Michael Budinger 😳
I have mirrors all over the place lol what else are you gonna do but stare at yourself
Jesus is King!
What we learned : men who take care of their faces are psychos
Trueee 💁😎😂
Yesss I'm
One glance at “Morning routine / Inspirational video“ guys on RUclips confirms that
What if your wife makes you

"There is an idea of a Patrick Bateman, some kind of abstraction. But there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory. And though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable, I simply am not there" i love this line so much
In the book these lines are found in the end of the last chapter, it’s part of the internal thoughts he’s having when there are “no more barriers to cross” I always liked how they tied it into the intro and then at the end of the movie we still get that rest of the monologue
Like
It is infact true, another way of saying you are nothing but a bunch of neurons. Glad that someone pointed this out while others are busy with the superficial aspects of this video.
Exactly. His character is a representation of capitalism in the 80s
I didn't understand..... What does that exactly means ?? Is he trying to say we're illusions or something ??
this sounds exactly like that dudes morning routine that cody and noel made fun of
GARLIC EXTRACT
Lmao those insta idiots are psychos thats why

+Nathan Hines excuse me I have to return some video tapes
+JZcommand lol I love that excuse I've used it before and anyone that has seen the movie catches on and laughes
I remember watching this in my senior year of high school and it made start a real morning and evening facial skin care routine hahahha thanks Patrick
Did it actually work ?😂have any effect?
@@guydutoit61 of course, what he's actually doing here isn't actually the craziest thing in the world, its the amount of what he's doing which is too much. What he's doing is controlling the natural oils that form on your face while you sleep in the night, potential sweat, and little debris wether it is dust or what have you from your bed. The specific facial products though help reduce built up oils in your pours, which is one of the main reasons why we get pimples. But of course, after you use product like this, it dries your skin out so you need a moisturizer, other wise dry skin can lead to damaging it. The reason why teens are so known to be pimply in high school is because the body's oil production goes crazy during puberty, so in my senior year following this routine reduced all my pimples by the time i was a freshy in college lol
What beautiful skin you have, Mr Stiglitz. So fine, so smooth.
@@shhh3185 He has too... He's a legendary Mexican actor.
As long as you don't follow his evening routine...
Now let's see Paul Allen's morning routine.
I laughed at this
How did a nitwit like you get so many likes?
Its a refrence to the movie :^)
Dont forget hes part of that whole Yale thing
I can't believe that RUclips prefers Edwards' comment to mine.
When you can only get male beauty tips from a character that kills off yuppies and social trash as a recreational hobby.
and dogs....
don't forget the dog :'(
+Nocturnal MeatPie Like the one whose stomach he slit open?
Nocturnal MeatPie he curbed stomped that little fucker
Zajin13 And a kid
he didn't actual killed anyone he just imagine what he'd like to do.When he was about to kill the gay guy he couldn't do it cause he never did.He was a psyco not a killer
I'm in the "This never happened/it's all in his head" camp solely because I've never seen a face mask come off in one piece .
well there are some tiny bits left on his temples
Even the Les Miserables poster. If you've read the book, you know that it pops up everywhere! Wherever Bateman goes, he see a Les Miserables banner. It's interesting
Dylan M Les Miz was HUGE in the 80s in New York
One take!
&, did they have all that facial scrub blah-blah-blah in the 80s?
It's funny how he uses all these products to keep his skin looking as healthy as possible, yet he has no problem with smoking cigars and snorting coke
Oh the irony
It's a well known fact that cocaine makes you lose weight but doesn't really have an affect to your skin , but yeah I agree lmaooo
it was the 80's and I believe the awareness of thw damage coke does to u is well understood
not well understood*
Maybe it's a metaphor. Like he cares for his skin but fucks up his insides
A lot of potential Batemans are on TikTok right now 😂
I live in the slums on West 82nd Street, on the ground floor.
My name is Rico Suave. I'm 29 years old.
I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced breakfast and sometimes I do some push-ups.
In the morning if my face is a little puffy, I'll call into work sick and do more push-ups. I can do seven now.
After I remove myself from society, I use a hand sanitizer from Walmart.
In the shower, I use an old bar of soap. With a loofah.
And on the face, that same bar of soap.
Lmfao! This made my day!!!
American Sociopath
Awesome dude 🤣👍🏼
Lmaoo
This would be perfect, but there are no slums on West 82nd😂😂
It made me laugh though:)
So this is what Bruce Wayne does when he's not punching criminals
I think so too... I think the brilliance of Michael keaton is that he can be that warm wacky funny and psychotic at the same. Time.. He is one of the villains.. He just chooses not to be.. No one has really clocked that or replicated it

I'm reading American Psycho by Bret Easton Ellis and I have to say that I can only see Christian Bale as Patrick Bateman when I read the book. That only goes to show, in my eyes at least, just how Christian Bale nailed the character in the movie.
Its amazing. The book was very controversial when it was released in 1991. It was hated on by people like Gloria Steinem (Christian Bale's step mom in real life) for how it portrayed women and how shallow Wall Street Yuppies were. But now, thirty years later, American Psycho is considered a masterpiece both as a novel and as a movie. Damn, it even has a friggen musical with Matt Smith as Patrick Bateman. This only goes to show that if you truly believe in what it is you are making and if you stick with it then one day it will be appreciated.
I live in my mom’s house. My name is Matthew. I'm 28 years old. I attempt to take care of myself with a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine, which will always start tomorrow. In the morning, I try to wake up at 8am, and usually fail. My alarm clock rings until 12pm, which is when I get up. I start up my computer and stare at the loading screen. At around 3pm I know my day has truly begun when I see the comforting logo on the screen, “RUclips”.
There is an idea of what I need to do to better my life. Many ideas of how to reach a higher level of being, and though I may talk about unfucking my situation, my true desire to do so is not really there.
If this is not me... 😂
Yeah this isn’t totally me or anything no not at all
Matthew Rozario nice parody :D
Z 28 where in the am routine would it fit?
Respect for him pulling of all of his mask at the first try.
Only a true psychopath can do that.
there was some on his eyebrow
This was the eleventh take.
I made that up. But how do we know that wasn't the best take of a hundred attempts? I think anyone could get the mask off just as well if they tried enough times.
When he finished that perfect peel of the mask, relief washed over me in an awesome wave.
I’m not gay, but Christian Bale is Christian Bale ..
Logan Swartz you are definitely gay
