I actually compiled a Dorian List. In other words, I compiled a list of 30 things to do before I turn 30, sort of a take on Zach Braff's character in Scrubs where he finds a listof things he wanted to accomplish before he turned 30 and ended up running a triathalon. These are the thingsd I came up with. Some sound like a joke, but in all seriousness, I am 100% sincere with those.
1) Write and create 3 different television sitcom pilots to pitch to television networks
2) Drive around in a Delorean blasting Huey Lewis and the News while wearing frogskins and a jean jacket/life preserver. When strangers would look at me funny at a stop light, I would turn down the music and quote lines from Back to the Future. Example:
Them: Nice car, buddy.
Me: Oh yeah? Let's see if you bastards can do 90
And then I take off at the greenlight. I would also say stuff like "Heavy", "Pepsi Free", and frantically yell "1955" over and over again.
3) Get in shape to the point where I can learn the art of Parkour well enough to jump over minor obstacles that stand in my way. If you don't know what Parkour is, here's a taste of the extreme:
4) Talk my way into the backstage of a concert, a movie premier, or any sort of major event for free
5) Spend at least 3 months working/living in 3 of the 4 major cities (LA, NY, Chicago, Atlanta)
6) Visit every major league baseball ballpark
7) Attend a major sporting event's championship game
8) Shake the hand of Steve Buscemi
9) Punch the face of Paul Walker
10) Win big in Vegas to the point where they comp me a massive suite
11) Complete a marathon
12) Travel across the country in an RV
13) Backpack across Europe
14) Get a vanity license plate that says something ridiculous and is complete jibberish, but sounds like a word, only it makes you sound retarded when you say it, so people will feel dumb when they read it. Like "FPASM" or "SHTONG"
15) Attend Oktoberfest in Germany
16) Assuming they have another one, attend all nights of a Mighty Mighty BossToneS Hometown Throwdown in Boston, MA
17) See the Cubs win the World Series
18) Have a Bobblehead made after my likeness
19) Have a funny sketch or video YouTube or something reach 1 million hits. Speaking of:
20) Go to a thrift store, buy some random old vinyl album, spray paint the record gold, photoshop a fake rap album cover with me on the front surrounded by gold and diamonds, take photos and gold record, and have it professionally framed so when people come over I can say "Oh, that's the gold record for my hit album"
21) Visit as many "Wonders of the World" as possible
22) Grow a neck beard and have the balls to sport it out on the town for one night. If you're having trouble visualizing it, imagine someone with a full beard, only they shave everywhere form the jawline up. Sexy, I know.
23) 4 words: Penis Extendo, 50 Feet. This is a game me and myt friends made up where you take a tape measure, put it at your crotch and see how far you can extend it into the air before it collapses.
24) Attend at least 50% of all the major music and film festivals in one year
25) Have a job I can brag about to my family
26) Have friend/pay people to follow me around with a bunch of cameras taking my picture in Los Angeles, hopefully prompting real papparazzi to follow me around and take my picture. This way I can imagine them going to their editor and the meeting going like:
"Who the fuck is this guy?"
"I don't know, everyone else was following him around"
"Who is everyone?"
"He had 10 people taking his photo everywhere he went, I tacked on and joined in"
"You're fuckin' fired"
Awesome
27) Change someone's life by introducing them to the movie "Undefeatable"
28) Make a mock/documentary about the director of "Undefeatable"
29) Make M. Night Shyamalan cry by insulting him
30) Have a vacation home in Grand Island, Nebraska....... just in case there's a zombie outbreak
