"Self-deprecation is the appetizer of charm"

I'm a fan of self-deprecation. I love it. Sometimes I take it too far and it becomes insecurity and self-loathing but when kept light it can be charming. I need to find the happy medium for that. Don't anyone get worried about me but I was thinking the other day how if I, or anyone really, died either by random death or suicide but left behind several videos that I made before I took the bullet. Like, if I left a video that said "PLAY AT FUNERAL" and I was on it saying "Hi. If you're watching this I'm dead right now. I'm sorry that I've left some of you sad (or happy. If you're smart)." and such. Something really matter-of-fact and funny. And then I'd have individual DVDs to give out to my friends. They'd have your names on them and when you played them they'd have a specific message for you. Like it'd say, well, I don't want to name names but it'd say someone's name on it and when you played it I'd be like "Hey there. So I'm dead. Kinda sucks huh? Well I think you're awesome because of this and this and this. Trust me. I know what I'm talking about. Dead guy here. So whenever you're feeling like you can't pursue that which you feel you need to, remember that there once was a time when I believed that you were strong enough to do it and if I leave behind a legacy of any sort, let it be that I encouraged you to do what you wanted with your life and that you lived life to your life to the utmost. If not for yourself then for me. I took my love for you to the grave and I hope you'll do the same. I love you." I think that would be such a great gift to recieve. I'm just sayin'...
