Awwwwww, was that suppose to hurt my feelings? I'm sorry, doesn't work. You show that you're an example of someone with a child's mindset in a grownup body, if that is your birth year on your lil name there. Keep trying
Awwwww, no. It wasn't supposed to hurt your feelings (why would I care about your feelings??). And...ouuu...I could care less whether it "worked". But, please, let me know if you have something intelligent to say. Really. If your a high school graduate, I'd love to discuss how it feels to be a "grownup" in a "child's mindset". Your the child, Jimmy. But, for the sake of cheap humor, enlighten me.... Shoot a pearl of wisdom in my direction......LOL
Why did you delete the comment you wrote, and you do care, or you wouldn't have replied, or even commented on my comment. You do have a child's mindset, trying to attack what I have my on my profile. Sorry buddy boy, but it wont work. For someone who suppose to be 'enlightened', you sure act like a 15 year old boy who doesn't get his way. You can post a comment and delete it, I will still see it, and comment about it.
What the fuck are you talking about, rabbit?? If I actually believed you were drunk when you posted that idiodic comment, I would have a little respect for you. But, obviously, your the antithesis of BUK. A dry fuck. I POSTED my comment and now you have responded, sad, pathetic reply that it was...Don't get caught up on "deleated comments". Just live Jimmy. As your mother has managed to live in her hovel, with her thread-bear stockings. I'm not 15....but I am enlightened!!!
So you're a liar after all. I didn't bother reading whatever drivel you wrote. The moment you called me a name, I had won this argument you tried to have with me, and only strung you along for my own amusement. But, you are becoming boring, so this will be the last message you get. Any other stupidity you wish to write back after this will not be read. So spew whatever garbage you wish.
Well, thanks for the bait, Jimmy. I truly hope, for the sake of myself and anyone else who happens to run into your sorry ass, that you mean what you said. However, I doubt it. Your a dry fuck, Jimmy. You were born a dry fuck and you will die a dry fuck. I hope you read this and say..."ouu, I want to reply but I told him I wouldn't". Well, either way, I win. I got the last word...or...I never hear from your pathetic ass again. lol lol

even though i don't wanna believe it, i completely feel Bukowski on this one... he is negatively, yet beautifully honest. this crooked world's never gonna change, so you have to find beauty in what moves you; whatever it may be. although, i just recently discovered Charles, he is truely a new inspiration for me. Thanks for the upload!
its timely deal with it bukowski is an avatar of working americans in the 20th century, those who never find purpose in life but vice, get the concept of purpose and meaning but dont get off on it, at least one of his was writing and not just reading
papagdavidson is quite simply a classic example of a literary snob. Probably a wannabe, failed writer who can't understand how Buk made it. Long live Buk. PS- I'm 35 years old, not an adolescent. People who have lived through hard times really appreciate what Buk has to say. He has been sold in many languages the world over and will continue to do so... deal with it.
This is why Bukowski is so popular among adolescent readers - he never grew up, he never faced up to life and learned to get on with it - he just moaned, and he had nothing more to say than this: "It's awful." We all feel like that sometimes, when we get over-tired and overwhelmed by events, people, necessity. But Bukowski's moaning is presented as 'Great Literature'.
Bukowski appeals to the immature - people who haven't learned to come to terms with life yet.
@TheNauded That's easy. They read Tolstoy, Flaubert, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Thomas Hardy, James Joyce, Joseph Conrad, DH Lawrence, Dos Passos, Ford Madox Ford, Shakespeare, Dickens, Milton, George Eliot, Dostoyevsky, Virginia Woolf, Kafka, Goethe, Schopenhauer, Nabokov, Whitman, Emerson, Thoreau, Melville, Poe, Byron, Browning, Tennyson, Keats, Yeats, TS Eliot, Gertrude Stein.
In short, they read writers who actually have some sort of insight into existence, as opposed to drunken moaning.
@papagdavidson bah! James Joyce, Virginia Woolf, Dickens!? I would rather be immature than bore myself to death. Commenting on a page of an author you don't like speaks volumes of your own maturity by the way.
@TheNauded No - you see, if you weren't immature you wouldn't find those great writers boring, you'd find them infinitely more exciting than you find the drunken moaning bore that is Bukowski to be now, I promise you. Give it a few years, my friend, and try them again. Best of luck and good wishes.
@papagdavidson This is just another case of someone sitting on their pedestal, they've read the "greats" but haven't dared deviate from what hasnt been preached about by everyone.
"Drunken moaning".... Really? What the fuck do u know about writing? Please post your credentials! BUK was a writer, and I dare say a great writer, who was able to write about those viseral pains that many of us struggle with. So, with all due respect, go fuck yourself!
@papagdavidson Maybe you havent come to terms with life, using close mindedness as a tool to make you feel mature, above others, who's to say you're wrong and he's right. In a lot of situations I have found the majority of people to be insufferable, trying to be a certain way, trying to be the best, the most mature. Who is to say he's right or you're right. Bukowski's literature is great not for the context alone, but for the writing style, so maybe it is you who is immature.
Charles Bukowski does not like me. His words reek with the hubris rhetoric of any true alcoholic. If it was his intent to show himself a hopeless casuistry, he succeeded.
I dont like them either. I honestly dont. "Them" as in.....my fellow humans. Most of them are truly fkd up and truly stupid. At least 80% of the usual (Amerikan) population.
Love ya ol' Buke. ♥ He was honest. That scares the usual squares and the rest of us laugh and really get it. We just laugh......and have a drink ...or four
i like what zooKeepr said... as for the folks who made the obvious pat judgmentsof this tragic monster, consider- He got to be Him- and You're stuck being You.
@goodvibesallround I rather enjoy pollution. People can be infinitely good and infinitely bad,so ummmmm, and everywhere in between depending on the day. I would love to dig up his bones and put his skull on top of my toilet tank, fucking it every sunday morning.

@iowntwocats I have never created a page, and I haven't posted any "hate" messages on it, or any other information. I have an account, and if you click on my name, there is nothing to see but a bare bones structure. You are either lying about the "hate" on my page, or you have mistaken me for another Youtube user; or, most likely, you never clicked on my name at all, and simply used the negative assumptions that you project onto others and spewed them in this public forum. You misspelled your.
@59penrod OH what a needlessly lengthy reply. By hate on your page I meant everyone hating you, cause yer a troll. You've commented several times on this video, bashing Bukowski. A comment is fine, but don't spam us with your opinion douche bag.
And talentless hack? You're the one projecting. how many novels and poems have you published?
Now go watch a Stephanie Meyers video little troll.
@iowntwocats I see that you misunderstand the psychological concept of projection. It seems obvious to me that you wish you had Bukowski's..."ability," if that's what you call it, and that I do not. If I admired Bukowski's writing, I would state such. I truly believe what I post about Bukowski. You may disagree, but that doesn't change my opinion. Your need to lash out at those who disparage what you revere reveals your character. Lengthy enough, or would you like further analysis?
Hey, peanut brain. If u think u can actually, in good conscience, come into a BUK THREAD and try to state that he had no "ability"...well, I say that's grounds to consider you an imbicile! Did it ever occur to you, wing-nut, that I WOULDN'T EVEN BE WRITING THIS on YOUTUBE if this wonderfully talented man didn't have talent. Do you think anyone will be discuccing YOU when you take your pathetic dirt nap one day????????? Sorry, just had to state the obvious.......
@Supertramp1966 This imbecile possesses a better spelling ability than you do. Every single sentence you just posted contains multiple errors of structure, grammar, punctuation, and banalities that pollute the screen. Yet I am the "imbicile." Once again I am dealing with an adult who never grew up, and who is threatened to the point of viciously insulting a stranger, because the stranger expresses his honest opinion of an author's work. This is pathological behavior.
@59penrod Well, let's turn some of this high powered "analysis" in your direction, good sir (was that polite enough?). How 'bout your choice to deflect the real issue by focusing on grammar? Really? Isn't that a little weak? This isn't prep school, it's a Buk thread. And while I can't argue with your position that your entitled to your opinion about BUK's work, I happen to think it's a crock of shit. And there's nothing "pathological" about that. Sadly, one's objectivity is always lost in envy.
@Supertramp1966, I don't envy Bukowski; I don't hate him, either. I pity him. Self-analysis is something I've engaged in for decades, junior, and while I envy rich people's wealth on a minor level, Bukowski's writing and persona utterly negates any such feelings for me, and I feel contentment that I'm not him. The only reason I'm wasting my (and, according to your judgement, your) time here, is the same reason everyone else is posting here, including you: entertaining myself. Try and stop me.
@59penrod Why would I want to stop you, Charlie??? I'm thoroughly enjoying this little "tete-a-tete", and I can more than hold my own with you. So, now that we've moved away from the distraction of grammar, I'd love to know how you can possibly believe that Buk had no ability? Enlighten me.... Read Ham On Rye... Sink your teeth into this man's work... Read WOMEN...
POST SCRIPT: Never pity a man who people are talking about long after his death. We should hope for so much.....
@Supertramp1966 Tell you what: I'll read some excerpts of what you just listed. However, I refrain from sweeping commands such as "never pity blah blah blah." I don't "hope for" the same things that others do. And I couldn't care less if strangers don't speak about me when I'm dead. I care about what people I love and respect think about me now, and whether they will consider that my life was led with kindness, honesty, and courage. Yeah, it sounds pretentious, but it's not a lie.
@59penrod Can't disagree with a thing you said. My goodness, what will we do if we're not going at each other's throat??? However, I stand by my opinion that Buk really did write some good stuff, and I hope you find this to be true when u read some excerpts. Re-visiting WOMEN tonight, with the warm company of a whiskey on the rocks. Life is good.... "Fucking is the best cure for hangovers". -BUK, WOMEN
think i'll stick to readin him.seen enough drunk men/women to last me a lifetime.my curiosity was piqued.like meetin yer heros.always assholes.think i'll join the billions out there listenin to unlistenable''music''by talentless hacks that make the news and consume the souls of their listeners and laugh at them.no ordinary madness between downloads.
for real ppl like bukowski can't stand the hordes of brainwashed morons called society and cant stand the current trends established by the media. in turn society looks down on people who refuse to conform just to feel part of their fake groups. that is why "he is such an asshole"
Buk wasn't an asshole. He just had the beautifully rare ability to be AUTHENTIC! Non- P.C..... Try it sometime! WE COULD LEARN A LOT FROM HIM!!! Today, everybody has their asshole puckered fish tight in fear of saying something "controversial". How sad........
can i get a WITNESS, i said, i said, i said, i said; CAN I GET A WITNESS
no,
seriously can i please get a fucking thumbs up on this bukowski video
because this stupid 5.9 earth'quake' (earth jiggle?) that happened on the east coast this afternoon, that caused no damage (so far), that no one will shut the fuck up about, that jiggled my wall-shit in ohio
beaten by his father as a child...rejected by women most of his life (until he became famous).......no wonder.....good thing he had talent and a passion for writing
lol I never looked at Bukowski within the context of psychology.
I sometimes think that he may have had a personality disorder but that's okay. I'm just observing and commenting on those perceptions, just like Bukowski did.
I have a love/dislike love affair with humans too; like others do. I like to say it's due to my observations of human life, just like Bukowski, but really there was a little 'distance' there from the beginning...or was there?
i personally think that misanthropy is a defence mechanism because lets face it at its worst the human race can be an absolute nightmare. i think the answer lies in finding your space and getting the balance right. some people are better adapted to solitude than others.
@iwontshareyouify i agree,freedom for me means not having to ask a wife if i can have a nite out with the boys.so aloneness is ok with me.your friends are the ones you have to be vigilate about,they can fuck you the hardest because you let them into your head/heart.watch what they do to other people,you may feel special and above that activity.if they did it to someone they will do it to you.i've only got a couple of dozen experiences.i would never fall in love with a married woman.

@Mjolbaggar a blowjob? his dick has been long since eaten by the worms; the bones have been underground for almost 20 years...but when they were covered with flesh and blood and a marvelous member he got more pussy and head than most men, including yourself. but if you're going to feel sorry for him, don't just feel that way because you don't think he got enough women, because even though they came late in his life he still suffered the hardships of poverty and other things more than most of us.
Jean-Paul Sartre, one or the greatest french philosopher of all time said that Bukowski was the greatest American Poet ever.
Ham on Rye, one of the best book ever written.
No matter what they said, Hank you were the best. RIP. You're funerals in 1994, I hope all these great monks help you go to the next life, and live again... we will never forget.
It's funny to see and hear him read his own stuff when he was quick to criticize people who do it (thinking about some lines in Women). Well maybe the critic was aimed at himself too.
@TheAxis456 this guy's dead...so no, he doesn't get laid much or at all for that matter. but when he was alive and writing he got laid plenty. not when he was younger though. didn't even get a piece of ass until he was 24. and it wasn't even a good piece of ass (he wrote about it. pretty damned funny. maybe you should read into it. i can tell you haven't before since you aren't even aware that he's dead)...but i think it's safe to say Buk fucked more times and more women than you ever will.
@azurenscens Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful knowledge on him! I meant, he must not have gotten laid much because he talks about how ugly people are, he doesn't like their faces and how he doesn't like being around people. Get it? comprende? The guy also seems like a real misogynistic jerk. I'm not talking about his work because I don't really know of it. Speaking based off the interview.

@iowntwocats I have never created a page, and I haven't posted any "hate" messages on it, or any other information. I have an account, and if you click on my name, there is nothing to see but a bare bones structure. You are either lying about the "hate" on my page, or you have mistaken me for another Youtube user; or, most likely, you never clicked on my name at all, and simply used the negative assumptions that you project onto others and spewed them in this public forum. You misspelled your.

@59penrod OH what a needlessly lengthy reply. By hate on your page I meant everyone hating you, cause yer a troll. You've commented several times on this video, bashing Bukowski. A comment is fine, but don't spam us with your opinion douche bag.
And talentless hack? You're the one projecting. how many novels and poems have you published?

iowntwocats 3 months ago
@iowntwocats I see that you misunderstand the psychological concept of projection. It seems obvious to me that you wish you had Bukowski's..."ability," if that's what you call it, and that I do not. If I admired Bukowski's writing, I would state such. I truly believe what I post about Bukowski. You may disagree, but that doesn't change my opinion. Your need to lash out at those who disparage what you revere reveals your character. Lengthy enough, or would you like further analysis?

@59penrod
Hey, peanut brain. If u think u can actually, in good conscience, come into a BUK THREAD and try to state that he had no "ability"...well, I say that's grounds to consider you an imbicile! Did it ever occur to you, wing-nut, that I WOULDN'T EVEN BE WRITING THIS on YOUTUBE if this wonderfully talented man didn't have talent. Do you think anyone will be discuccing YOU when you take your pathetic dirt nap one day????????? Sorry, just had to state the obvious.......
Supertramp1966 3 months ago
@Supertramp1966 This imbecile possesses a better spelling ability than you do. Every single sentence you just posted contains multiple errors of structure, grammar, punctuation, and banalities that pollute the screen. Yet I am the "imbicile." Once again I am dealing with an adult who never grew up, and who is threatened to the point of viciously insulting a stranger, because the stranger expresses his honest opinion of an author's work. This is pathological behavior.
59penrod 3 months ago
@59penrod Well, let's turn some of this high powered "analysis" in your direction, good sir (was that polite enough?). How 'bout your choice to deflect the real issue by focusing on grammar? Really? Isn't that a little weak? This isn't prep school, it's a Buk thread. And while I can't argue with your position that your entitled to your opinion about BUK's work, I happen to think it's a crock of shit. And there's nothing "pathological" about that. Sadly, one's objectivity is always lost in envy.
Supertramp1966 3 months ago
@Supertramp1966, I don't envy Bukowski; I don't hate him, either. I pity him. Self-analysis is something I've engaged in for decades, junior, and while I envy rich people's wealth on a minor level, Bukowski's writing and persona utterly negates any such feelings for me, and I feel contentment that I'm not him. The only reason I'm wasting my (and, according to your judgement, your) time here, is the same reason everyone else is posting here, including you: entertaining myself. Try and stop me.
59penrod 3 months ago
@59penrod Why would I want to stop you, Charlie??? I'm thoroughly enjoying this little "tete-a-tete", and I can more than hold my own with you. So, now that we've moved away from the distraction of grammar, I'd love to know how you can possibly believe that Buk had no ability? Enlighten me.... Read Ham On Rye... Sink your teeth into this man's work... Read WOMEN...
POST SCRIPT: Never pity a man who people are talking about long after his death. We should hope for so much.....
Supertramp1966 3 months ago
@Supertramp1966 Tell you what: I'll read some excerpts of what you just listed. However, I refrain from sweeping commands such as "never pity blah blah blah." I don't "hope for" the same things that others do. And I couldn't care less if strangers don't speak about me when I'm dead. I care about what people I love and respect think about me now, and whether they will consider that my life was led with kindness, honesty, and courage. Yeah, it sounds pretentious, but it's not a lie.

@59penrod Can't disagree with a thing you said. My goodness, what will we do if we're not going at each other's throat???

lol I never looked at Bukowski within the context of psychology.
I sometimes think that he may have had a personality disorder but that's okay. I'm just observing and commenting on those perceptions, just like Bukowski did.
I have a love/dislike love affair with humans too; like others do. I like to say it's due to my observations of human life, just like Bukowski, but really there was a little 'distance' there from the beginning...or was there?

@TheAxis456 this guy's dead...so no, he doesn't get laid much or at all for that matter. but when he was alive and writing he got laid plenty. not when he was younger though. didn't even get a piece of ass until he was 24. and it wasn't even a good piece of ass (he wrote about it. pretty damned funny. maybe you should read into it. i can tell you haven't before since you aren't even aware that he's dead)...but i think it's safe to say Buk fucked more times and more women than you ever will.

@azurenscens Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful knowledge on him!
