I appreciate the detail in the photo of leaving in the subject's weird fetish crap.

Always nice to see a long, overwritten and meandering article about some weird guy with a fetish doing some sort of thing no one cares about.

I think doing this kind of article would have made sense back when uh, Hunter S. Thompson was in his 30s or so, and there was no internet, etc.

Now I don't see the point. This is a very long piece about something that isn't worth reading about. Anyone who spends the time reading it will have a lesser existence as a result.
