1- To be
simultaneously inspired to achieve greatness and bummed out because you know you’ll never attain it. Perhaps it’s seeing a supercar of your dreams that you have no hope of renting, let alone owning. Maybe it’s when you see somebody on instagram posting from a private jet saying something like “reach for the skies” but you’ve never even flown economy plus. It’s definitely the feeling you get when you see how close you are now to Obama’s age when he became president.
2- It’s that fleeting jealously you get driving by a
homeless person on the way to a job you hate. Sure their life is probably hell but they’re free, man, free, and sometimes they have a dog, and the dog loves them. They get to camp for free without a parks pass, and they sure as hell don’t need to go to any meetings.
3- It’s that burst of enthusiasm that you get when you see a great looking perky bum on instagram, a booty so fine that you
immediately start searching for butt workout vids on youtube and commit to hiring a trainer.
1. Why are you looking bravely forward with your chin up and crying at the same time?
Every time I see a yacht I get bummspired, it’s like a mental explosion of need-to-hustle and knowing I got no chance of owning any kind of a boat.
Costco has kayaks. That's a kind of boat and they're cheap.
Shut up. Ain't nothing bummspirational about a kayak.
2. Do you ever just wish you could drop out of the rat race and be homeless?
Out of the rat race to live in a rat place? Are you high?
Yeah, nah, you’re right, you’re right, I just tend to get bummspired on Mondays.
3. Whoa! Your butt’s looking fab. What happened?
A few months ago I saw celebrity
fitness model @JessicaBabyFat on
instagram, doing squats and she changed my life. I was instantly bummspired.
I’m bummspired just
hearing you talk about your bummspiration.
