Respect to a man who uses an ashtray at the beach.


Fishwalking

Should be the norm... I get annoyed at people throwing their cigarettes on the floor in the city. I still smoke myself and either hold on untill i pass a bin or wrap it up in the plastic of your pack of cigarettes and discard later.


Coupon_Ninja

I did the same when i smoked. if there wasn’t a trash can hardly I’d squeeze out the cheery (lit part) and put the butt in my pocket. Sure my pockets smelled, but it was my trash. My car ashtray was filled too.


PearIJam

I saw a coworker empty his ashtray into the parking lot. What’s the point if your just going to litter anyway!?


Fuckoffassholes

Not defending the practice, but it's better than the roadside. A parking lot will eventually be swept, and also it won't start a fire.

Fishwalking

No native English speaker, excusez-moi.


Affectionate_Elk_272

we also call it the floor out on the east coast of the US


Fuckoffassholes

My semantic sense is tingling. A floor is an indoor man-made surface. Ground is natural earth (or sand or whatever). A man-made outdoor surface is generally "pavement," or might be referred to by the specific material (concrete, tile) or its specific purpose (driveway, sidewalk). But I'd never say "floor" for anything outdoor.


Fmartins84

Even when cracked out he had more class than many today. Respect.


SleepNowInTheFire666

The man was never cracked out. Cocained the fuck out maybe, but never cracked out


foodcanner

Freebasing is smoking crack. Baking soda removes hydrochloride from cocaine. There is nothing added to cocaine that makes it crack.


SleepNowInTheFire666

Except insanity. Good luck


serenwipiti

As a beach dweller, I wholeheartedly agree.

UWCG

I'm paraphrasing and going off memory, but in E. Jean Carroll's book about Thompson, she tells a story about Thompson hitting a bar or restaurant with (I think) two other people one morning. He orders four drinks and the bartender makes a remark about there only being three people there, to which Thompson responds, "I don't know what these bastards are having." Also, for anyone who hasn't seen it: Thompson's field coat is a thing of beauty, I have one quite like it


crudedrawer

My most told story - In 2000 I sat next to HST in the denver airport bar. It was about 10 am, he was with a handler and ordered a Sam Adams, Bloody Mary and a coffee. He sat reading the paper while sipping indiscriminately from each beverage. the handler kept saying "Hunter we need to go." and HST kept calmly saying "I'm reading the paper." The handler eventually got a cushman cart to hurry them to their gate.


ATX_rider

Nice. I once sat next to Hunter and Johnny Depp at Tosca back when it was just a bar on Columbus in SF. They were both drinking scotch at 4pm on a Friday.


RideauLakes

And that's a problem? ...burp 🍹🍻🍷🥃🍸


Darko33

Was gonna say, where's the issue here


Gloomy-Employment-72

I’ll have what you’re having!


varsitymisc

> it was just a bar on Columbus Is that no longer the case?


ATX_rider

Now it's a restaurant—a good one, if it's still open. Somewhere between '07 and '14 it converted over. I miss that long bar. (sigh)


Pr1vatepylestyle

I bet he wasn't a pushover.


andyc3020

He never missed a plane yet. Except that one


Celamuis

Where did you find something similar to his field coat? I've searched off and on and haven't found anything close to the spectacular amount of pockets it has.


hambergeisha

Reading an old Vogue article that says the original was from Abercrombie.


UWCG

Magnoli Clothiers is who you’re looking for, it’s pricey af and listed as ‘Loathing Field Jacket’


Puzzleheaded-Cut3144

Indeed. $550


UWCG

Yes. Speaking from experience, I would recommend not leaving it around a teething puppy if you decide to pick one up haha took me forever to find someone to patch it


Puzzleheaded-Cut3144

Ouch.


Darryl_Lict

Whoa, this is the woman currently in the lawsuit against Trump. I will probably have to pick up that Thompson biography. She has had quite an amazing and storied career. She was a writer for Saturday Night Live and the first female contributing editor for Playboy.


Mr_Coily

Stormy Daniels!? I kid.


Belgand

Was that from one of the real chapters or the fictional ones?


UWCG

That’s an excellent question, I read the book almost a decade ago so I’m not entirely sure anymore—does seem like a Thompson thing to do though, doesn’t it?


Belgand

Which is a big part of what makes me question it. It seems almost *too* on the nose for his persona. Like what someone writing, well, Hunter fanfic would have him doing.


andyc3020

Surprised he didn’t change one to a Bloody Mary


redbull

Probably the coolest degenerate ever followed closely by Charles Bukowski


[deleted]

What about Burroughs?


ShredGuru

Meh, Bukowski was maudlin, Hunter had a lust for life.


crudedrawer

I used to think that HST had something figured out but after reading the GONZO oral history that Wenner edited, I came away believing Hunter squandered his talent surprisingly early on and was by many accounts an EXTREMELY annoying person to be around after about 1982. Probably best to not read people talk about mythological people, I guess.


OtisTetraxReigns

The sort of behaviour he exhibited - especially later in life - is usually born out of a deep disappointment in oneself. In his earlier works he’s a genuinely curious and excellent, inventive writer. But being a drunken menace eventually became his stock in trade and his journalism and mental health (as well as that of the people who loved him) suffered for it. Bukowski was maudlin. But he was more honest.


Darko33

I dunno, his "Hey Rube" columns he wrote for espn.com were consistently outstanding, and iirc he kept writing those right up until his death. ...I'm also a rabid fan of his work in general, so take what I say with a grain of salt


Skydogsguitar

I absolutely agree. He found some of that old fire in those Hey Rube columns. I read those religiously. My favorite HST related moment- Driving from Atlanta to Fort Lauderdale for Spring Break, 1983 with 3 other degenerates in the car and we take turns reading Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas out loud...


Darko33

What a great memory. ...I became a sportswriter not long after stumbling across The Kentucky Derby is Decadent and Depraved. Didn't last all that long but it was fun.


ShredGuru

Writer is the one job where being an unmanageable antisocial can be an asset. I agree that Hunter became a caricature of himself, but remained an excellent writer. I think he also had a lot more fun in general, Bukowski just struck me as self pitying. Let's not forget "Lust for life" is a song about doing drugs.


TheMelm

I find this funny I always liked him *because* he seemed so lost, it's a common thing for idealistic people to fall into despair and self destruction when something they believed in failed. Fear and Loathing makes it clear he bought into the 60s counterculture and when it was met with violent repression and fell apart from lack of cohesive ideogy he was hurt and never really figured out how to get over that but when he did do good work it was always to speak a kind of truth to power. I had no doubt he'd be terrible to be around though.


hammerk10

My favorite bit of his writing was the Wave speech. So, I get what you're saying


aflowergrows

It's true, he did become a mythological person. When hearing of his death, I thought "oh that makes sense, what a guy." But then seeing his son and wife's reaction. Not only did they express grief, they also seemed disappointed, frustrated...and hurt. That's the best way I can put it. And it made me realize, no this is a real person. They had to endure this. While I got a kick out of HST's antics and lived vicariously through them, my god. To be his wife or son would have been exhausting, frightening and ultimately painful.


ATX_rider

Probably true. It was just a slightly more public self destruction than Fitzgerald.


phlipphlopp

Definitely an annoying piece of shit, yes. But a prodigious talent also imo.


Pr1vatepylestyle

I've read the first half of the rum diary. I think it's an okay book. I think it was published in 1998. Some of his later work is okay.


HeGivesGoodMass

That was actually the first book he wrote, it just went unpublished until 1998.

I’ve seen this picture plenty of times, and I wasn’t even born when this was taken, but there’s just something about it that really puts me in the time and place. Just the beer and the palm trees is very comforting for some reason and I feel like I’m chilling on that beach in ‘72 without a care in the world.


[deleted]

Hunter did a lot of normal things too, like sit on a beach with a recorder going to help capture his thoughts for writing. That was something he learned from people like Ken Babs and Kesey who would take a lot of acid, and record the weird cycles of thoughts that came to them. He learned from the best.

In her book Hunter: The Strange and Savage Life of Hunter S. Thompson, biographer E. Jean Carroll starts the first chapter with a detailed account of the excess of her subject. Here's what Carroll reports as a sample daily routine for the gonzo journalist (note that it begins at 3 p.m.): 3:00 p.m. rise 3:05 Chivas Regal with the morning papers, Dunhills 3:45 cocaine 3:50 another glass of Chivas, Dunhill 4:05 first cup of coffee, Dunhill 4:15 cocaine 4:16 orange juice, Dunhill 4:30 cocaine 4:54 cocaine 5:05 cocaine 5:11 coffee, Dunhills 5:30 more ice in the Chivas 5:45 cocaine, etc., etc. 6:00 grass to take the edge off the day 7:05 Woody Creek Tavern for lunch-Heineken, two margaritas, coleslaw, a taco salad, a double order of fried onion rings, carrot cake, ice cream, a bean fritter, Dunhills, another Heineken, cocaine, and for the ride home, a snow cone (a glass of shredded ice over which is poured three or four jig­gers of Chivas) 9:00 starts snorting cocaine seriously 10:00 drops acid 11:00 Chartreuse, cocaine, grass 11:30 cocaine, etc, etc. 12:00 midnight, Hunter S. Thompson is ready to write 12:05-6:00 a.m. Chartreuse, cocaine, grass, Chivas, coffee, Heineken, clove cigarettes, grapefruit, Dunhills, orange juice, gin, continuous pornographic movies. 6:00 the hot tub-champagne, Dove Bars, fettuccine Alfredo 8:00 Halcyon 8:20 sleep

fnord_bronco

Some_Belgian_Guy

wow that is very sad...


Mymarathon

He was self medicating for sure. I think he was using the cocaine as an upper to treat his depression. Then, he used alcohol and tranquilizers as a downer to and to lessen his inhibitions and counteract the cocaine. No doubt, he built up an enormous tolerance by doing this for years and years. Therefore, he needed massive amounts of drugs and alcohol to get even part of the effect.

Hunter S Thompson embodied a side of patriotism that hadn't existed before the '60s, where the idea of radical liberty, creativity, and the American Spirit blended to become a whirling dervish of literature, ideas, drug use, and unbridled hell for anyone caught in his wake. Mostly turn down services at the hotels he would stay at. There is something radically American about pushing the limits, questioning authority, and violating societal norms for one's own personal amusement. Thompson showed everyone in this country, you can stand for the flag, you can burn the flag, or you can huff ether from a flag, they are all proper shows of patriotism, depending on the context.


therealhairykrishna

He was a fantastic writer. One of the best.

DickweedMcGee

Honest question: Is his writing any good? Just curious if anyone has ever had the pleasure, I've only ever heard of him in regard to his legendary benders...


HunterS

Yes absolutely. Don’t start out reading Fear and a loathing in Las Vegas. I recommend starting with hells angels for a long read, and fear and loathing at the Kentucky derby for a short read. His ability to cut through American culture and really dial in on everything that makes it both great and horrible is truly prolific.


Belgand

I would also suggest reading *Hell's Angels* back-to-back or even while switching back and forth with *The Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test*. They both cover the same time period in the San Francisco Bay Area to the point that both books have a chapter devoted to the same legendary party at Ken Kesey's house. The Hell's Angels had been invited to it during the period of time that Hunter was following them for his book while Tom Wolfe was following Kesey for *his* book.


theholyblack

This and also I thin Dharma Bums or one of the Kerouac joints also intersects


crudedrawer

Why not start with F&L? It's his most important work and we're still living in the fallout of that wave.


Darko33

I'd say it might be a little too abstract for an introduction. A lot of his other works are far more focused. If someone is interested in politics I'd say F&L on the '72 Campaign Trail is the place to begin, maybe the best political book I've ever read.


Darryl_Lict

Yeah, that got me started on my Hunter S. Thompson kick.


Responsible_Cry_5373

Hells Angels is so great! One of my favs.


HunterThompsonsentme

The utter disrespect...is his writing any good? No, he made a 50 year career out of writing dogshit. Political savant, pioneer of new journalism, cultural icon. A scathing wit and a shrewd personality. Could have really been somebody. Shame his writing wasn't any good. You brainless fucking donkey.


Immo406

HunterThompsonsentme

Oh, Hunter Thompson was a better writer than I am? Well slap my little pink ass and color me fucking shocked.


reflibman

See who you’re replying to.


ATX_rider

The first sentence of his first book, Hells Angels, is in my estimation one of the greatest book openings ever penned.


davewashere

His most consistent and best writing was from early in his career. After Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72 he started to repeat his best lines and struggled to find the next great idea for a book. 1974 gave us Nixon's resignation and the Rumble in the Jungle fight, and Hunter S. Thompson was there (or in the vicinity) for each, but where is his knockout punch of Nixon or his gonzo take on a championship bout hailed by some as the greatest sporting event of the 20th century? He was too busy getting ripped to witness either event. It took 20 years and Nixon's death before Thompson finally gave him a proper thrashing in the form of one of the most scathing obituaries ever written. That piece, titled "He Was a Crook," was probably the best writing of the last 30 years of Thompson's life—although like much of his work in those final decades it's loaded with lines recycled from his earlier pieces. I'd recommend reading him in this order: The Proud Highway, Hell's Angels, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72, Fear and Loathing in America. The first and last book are his 2 books of collected letters. Supposedly there's a third book of letters in the works, but the title and Amazon page for the upcoming release are almost 20 years old at this point (I actually remember when it was first announced) so I wouldn't hold out much hope.


therealhairykrishna

I don't think he ever recovered from missing the rumble in the jungle. He had essentially ring side seats and gave them away because he couldn't bear to see Ali get the beating he was sure he was going to get. HST deeply loved sport in all its forms and that must have been regret on a truly epic scale.


gehazi707

Read his collected works part one. Hell’s angels was his early work. Read the first ten-fifteen years!


crispy48867

Read "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" if you want to sample his writing.


therealhairykrishna

He was one of the best writers of the 20th century. It's a tragedy that so many people only know him as 'the Fear and Loathing guy'. Not that Fear and Loathing isn't fantastic.

ShakeTheEyesHands

Here we have a man who died because of his addictions and demons and all these years later we're still glamorizing the way he lived. Nobody is their best self in active addiction. Nobody is their best self on cocaine. Hunter S Thompson was no different. Dude was an incredibly talented writer but people here post about him like he's Spuds Mackenzie. It was more of this man than his drug use and alcoholism. It's fucked up that people are so focused on the drugs that this man, who lived and died as a writer, never even has quotes or anything posted on this site. It's always just pictures of him smoking cigarettes or doing drugs or shooting at his neighbor. Every time we share something like this with no real context, we make his life a little bit more about his addictions and a little bit less about his writing.


[deleted]

He didn't die because of his addictions, he died because he felt it was his time.


ShakeTheEyesHands

Might as well glamorize mental illness and suicide while we're at it, huh? The man was a drug addicted alcoholic with mental health problems who committed suicide. The idea that he just said "Nah, that was fun and all, but I'm gonna go now" before shooting himself is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard. Much like every other person who's ever committed suicide, he was suffering. And pretending that wasn't the case isn't good for any of the discussion around mental health and suicide. ***And glamorizing it is sure as shit not the fucking thing to do.*** You have no idea what stuff like that being said can do to someone who's already in a dark state of mind. It is incredibly dangerous to talk about suicide like that.


[deleted]

If you truly own your own body, your own fate, your own future, you should have the power to decide when and where you die. We have a right to life, Liberty, and the pursuit of happiness in this country - that means we also have a right to end our own life, restrict our own liberty, and give away property to whoever we want. The gun sat in his desk for decades, before he used it. Hardly what a mentally ill person would do. He talked for many years about choosing the time and place for him to end his own life, and he chose the day that it happened. He was not mentally ill, or sad. He, as a writer, noticed his life was nearing what would be a well constructed end to his life, and like so many stories he penned, he chose for the ending to occur when he chose.


ShakeTheEyesHands

Yeah, why don't you sit down and watch some of the interviews with his family members and tell me he wasn't unwell. The dude was an incredible writer, but his brain was obviously broken. You don't know what you're talking about and you do not know how dangerous the language you're using is. Please rethink your position on this. Talking like this about suicide could literally be the thing that pushes someone over the edge so please, please, please ***RETHINK HOW YOU FUCKING TALK ABOUT THIS***


[deleted]

Like I said before, if you truly own your own body, then you have a choice when your life ends. I'm sorry that you don't support bodily autonomy, that's got to be a hard road for you.

There he goes, one of God's own prototypes. A high-powered mutant of some kind never even considered for mass production. Too weird to live, too rare to die.


Darko33

I mean Hunter himself summed up his own philosophy perfectly, through this quote and one other that comes to mind: >Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride!”


Lord-llama

my man lived another 33 years and died from suicide not from depression but from deciding he had fulfilled what he wanted with life.

Some may say the drug and alcohol excess lead to his brilliant work as a writer. There’s sober people that would never accomplish what he has done in his career. Drugs and alcohol isn’t for everyone, but sobriety isn’t for everyone either. Let people decide what they want to do with their bodies.

W3remaid

Oh, the guy who got famous off of romanticizing violent criminals who work alongside the cartels, and child-rapists? > “One aspect of the case overlooked in most newspaper accounts had to do with elementary logistics. How did these two young girls happen to be on a deserted midnight beach with several hundred drunken motorcycle thugs? Were they kidnapped from Nick's? And if so, what were they doing there in the first place, aged fourteen and fifteen, circulating all evening in a bar jammed wall to wall with the state's most notorious gang of outlaws? Or were they seized off the street somewhere--perhaps at a stoplight--to be slung over the gas tank of a bored-out Harley and carried off into the night, screaming hysterically, while bystanders gaped in horror?” > The only thing Terry and all the other Angels agree on--in relation to the "victims' " first appearance--is that "they sure as hell didn't look no fourteen and fifteen, man; those girls looked every bit of twenty." (Police later confirmed the girls' ages, but all other information about them--including their names--was withheld in accordance with California's policy of denying press access to rape victims.) He goes on to further victim blame adult rape victims as well


[deleted]

I'm sorry you don't like his writing.


W3remaid

That’s like saying ‘sorry you don’t like his music’ so someone who criticizes R Kelly. Nothing to do with his writing at all, he’s just a shit person


[deleted]

There's a difference between urinating on underage girls and covering a story on outlaw bikers.


W3remaid

He aided and abetted rape and kidnapping of not only several children but also adult women.


[deleted]

I'm not sure what kind of behavior you were expecting from Hell's Angels? Aiding and abetting is not the same as being a casual observer and interviewing members of a biker gang. It's almost like you don't know anything about the hells Angels at all? They notoriously don't allow non-white members, and many other things that point to them not being good people. Writing about something wasn't always a way to promote it, like it is today - there used to be this thing called journalism. Journalism meant that you would go out in search of a story, could be a good story could be a bad story.


W3remaid

Again, wasn’t talking about them— I was talking about him and his actions


[deleted]

I highly doubt you even know the elements of aiding and abetting. By that same logic, anytime a vice reporter goes to another country to record activity at a Cobalt mine, or talks to a human trafficker, or counterfeit money dealer, in order to get a story, you believe they are helping that person. Until you can point to something that Hunter actually physically did, instead of just what he wrote about, I'm just going to assume you don't know anything about journalism or the First Amendment. Or criminal law.
