Nice guys. Nice guys. Let's talk to all those nice guys out there:

Superficial titles like "nice guy" and "asshole" are fun to play with but rarely do much of anything. It's all meta, it's all perception.

Imagine a chicken. Now, it's only a chicken because I say it's a chicken, not because it thinks it's a chicken.

Whether I call it a chicken or dinner or a partner for lonely nights (TheJazz?) is irrelevant. It is what it is. We are what we do.

It's the famous which-was-first-chicken-or-egg? debate. Were you a nice guy and caught the label or did you pick up the label and try to live the idea?

...

So, basically: Stop fucking the "nice guy" chicken. You're not a "nice guy." You're just a "guy"... who might be nice depending on your perception at the moment or the perception of someone else you're trying to play holster-the-hogleg with at a scummy bar.

...

Me? I'm a nice sellout. Ask anybody.
