This old newsclipping from the '80s popped up on Reddit recent and blew up across the Internet.
But remember, kids: Hunter S. Thompson's lessons were more than just gettin' rowdy and staying up late. He was about fighting for what's right against pigfucker greedheads and human jackals. He was about the death of the American Dream as we, once upon a time, know it. I encourage you to read his books — all of them — to try to understand the brilliant complexity of this great American writer. Then go toast a glass of Chivas and listen to music REALLY, REALLY loud.
