My old Werewolf buddy and I came up with a theory working in Pumpkin Town. We were working for clan Ventrue, Nosferatu, and Brujah as junkers having the time of our lives. Clan Ventrue was doing all the back end financing, clan Nosferatu programmed the database, and clan Brujah was their main source of junkers. For the minimum wage received, we had some of the dirtiest clean up jobs in history. That being said, we got to keep all the stuff we got off any job and sometimes the tips were great. We even got to donate and recycle a metric butt ton of stuff, so WIN/WIN right?



One day we decide to be silly and start throwing bricks backwards into the truck laughing the whole time. 95% of the time they would fly effortlessly into the back of the junk truck. We thought that was weird and tried throwing bricks into the back of the truck looking directly at it. 95% of those shots would hit the top edge of the truck and bounce off. “What is that man!?!” we thought out loud to each other. So we go back to throwing the bricks backwards. They start flying in the junk truck like they already belonged there.



From that day forward I started to think “trying things” is a waste of time. Either you excel at something or learn quickly from your mistakes. If you can’t throw the brick backwards and laugh, you’re probably doing something wrong. Good ideas shouldn’t have to be foisted on people, they should thrive naturally.



Throw your life backwards and have fun my fellow creatures of the night,
