>>2722233i think chris new he royally fucked up by majoring and minoring what he did in uni and coped with it by trying to live a childhood fantasy.
It's the ultimate embodiment of taking the phrase everyones parents tells them "you can do whatever you want when you get older" to literally.
but if im being brutally honest
he probably had a form bipolar disorder or something
because there is no way in hell you read a book about surviving and adventuring as a kid and still think it's awesome as an adult
like yeah i thought the hatchet for example was badass and totally imagined myself in thay situation
but im also not s retard and realized how genuine fucking hard it would be to survive off of literal scratch
