Isaac’s eulogy-An Excerpt from the Fault in Our Stars

the-endiswherewestartfrom:

“Augustus Waters was a self-aggrandizing bastard.  But we forgive him.  We forgive him not because he had a heart so figuratively good as his literal one sucked, or because he knew more about how to hold a cigarette than any nonsmoker in history, or because he got eighteen years when he should have gotten more.”
“Seventeen,” Gus corrected.
“I’m assuming you’ve got some time, you interrupting bastard.
“I’m telling you,” Isaac continued, “Augustus Waters talked so much that he’d interrupt his own funeral.  And he was pretentious: Sweet Jesus Christ, that kid never took a piss without pondering the abundant metaphorical resonances of human waste production.  And he was vain: I do not believe I have ever met a more physically attractive person who was more acutely aware of his own physical attractiveness.  
But I will say this: when the scientists of the future show up at my house with robot eyes and they tell me to try them on, I will tell the scientists to screw off, because I do not want to see a world without him.
And then, having made my rhetorical point, I will put the robot eyes on, because I mean, with robot eyes you can probably see through girls’ shirts and stuff.  Augustus, my friend, Godspeed.”

today at the park some guy broke his ankle and one of the people said “give him some lettuce” and everyone just stared at him for like 7 seconds until he said “I meant ice”
