Is Tony R the epitome of a modern heavy metal fan in 2023?

If you mean "less stress", then that is kinda a thing.  The caveat is not everyone's sources of stress are self induced, so their "attitude" alone may have no bearing on whether or not they experience stress, to what extent, or whether it impacts their health/vitality.  You can be a prisoner of war, and be the happiest and most optimistic person on the planet, but your actual conditions could kill you in a matter of months.  Your "attitude" can't save you from starvation and disease.  I think that's an abused trope/meme.  There's tons of miserable, manipulative, and downright evil people who live into old age.

Thanks for pissing in my lemonade, man!   Here I am thinking that I'm doing all right laughing at life's problems and saying 'whatever' like any good X-er should.   LOL

It can get you all the way to POTUS if we're unlucky or all the way to mega church pastor if you can fool enough people or all the way to solitary confinement if you can't be the other 2.

Not sure I'd want the job, would you?

 

Mega church pastor?  Oh hell yeah.  All the coke and hookers money can buy at the expense of the gullible parishioners.

Les Binks the drummer wrote that part, it's his only credit with the band.
