Ari Gold, douchebag par excellance. Yet, strangely endearing. To me, anyway. Watching him make an ass of himself on Entourage never fails to make me smile.
I see a bit of him in me. His ambitious, albeit mostly idiotic, industry moves, his non-stop attempts to be number one...and his desperate grovelling at the feet of his wife (in my case family) and clients when things don't work out as planned.
C'mon, admit it, there's a bit of Ari Gold in you too.
I bet you have your moments of unabashed self-centredness, laced with the cocky belief that anything can be manipulated to work in your favour if you deal fast enough.
Sure, the hypocrite in you is screaming "hell no!" but somewhere deep in you, near where your little black heart beats, is a box that holds all your nefarious, scheming thoughts and diabolical plans. These thoughts desperately scream that they want to see the light of day. The question is, will you let them?
Tempered with a little commonsense, it couldn't be that bad.
On a sidenote, most of the greatest people in history have been the ones who have made the meanest moves on their own chessboards. Thats why we remember them.
Let us now all take a moment to look into ourselves and recognize the little Golds (ghouls?) within us.
To the insipid creatures out there who refuse to acknowledge their own devious natures...what a shame...you'd certainly be more interesting for it.
