I’m binge-watching in an effort to catch up before the finale.
I started in the middle of August, and here I am…end of October, and I’m almost halfway
done through Season 6. It’s been a tremendous commitment…although, I must admit, I’m losing a bit of my excitement…as it’s feeling more like a “chore” to watch all these episodes. Getting a few days off in-between would make it feel fresher…but that would screw up my timeline.
Since I’ve started watching…I’ve transformed myself into a Jax/Opie hybrid…with just a touch of Chibs.
See….this is how I’m dressing nearly every day…flannels are back in my life…and stocking caps.
Behold my Halloween photo…

I am SAMCRO.
Okay…maybe not…because here’s why I would make a terrible member of the Sons of Anarchy:
1) I’ve never ridden a motorcycle….seems essential to being part of a motorcycle club.
2) I’m not a fan of guns…so running guns would be something I would prefer not to do.
3) Never shot a gun…never killed a man…I don’t think I’d ever earn my “Men of Mayhem” patch. Tig would just stare at me and say “What is a matter with you?”…but Tig, really, what’s a matter with you?
4) I’m still not sure what “SAMCRO” stands for. Without Googling, I’m guessing Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club R…something O. No idea.
5) I can’t drink as much as I used to.
6) I’d have too much remorse for ruining people’s lives.
7) My wife prefers not to be referred to as “My Old Lady”…this I don’t understand (I’m totally kidding, I fully understand).
8) I can’t grow my hair out anymore.
9) I’m facially hair challenged. My goatee never fully connects on the right side.
10) I’m not a fan of confrontation.
11) I never enjoy meetings…but I do like the idea of having a big oak table with a reaper in the middle.
12) I consistently bow to authority. If the police say “Stop”…I would stop…not rev up my bike (which I don’t know how to drive) to 90 and out-run them (oh, and maybe shoot at them).
13) If I carried a big knife like they did, I would accidentally stab myself all the time.
14) I can’t tell if I would look tough with a leather cut…or incredibly lame.
15) I’ve never been in a real fight…but I know I would suck at it. Seems like everyone would able to kick my butt.
16) Oh, I’d be a rat…no doubt. I’d cave in a heartbeat. I’d never be able to be like Otto. This is all it would take “You know what we’re going to do to you?” That’s it…I’d spill my guts.
So…in conclusion…I can dress the part…can’t look the part really…overall, can’t be the part…I need to buy a motorcycle. That seems like a purchase that I should run past my wife first.
AWESOME is as AWESOME does
