Better living through apathy

It's been a long time since I thought about a "random Larry." I got the term from my friend Pete, a very, very long time ago. Pete pulled the term from some news item about some loser (named, of course, Larry) that got arrested for something stupid. Somehow, if I recall correctly, it was decided that anyone named "Larry" would be a loser, and so the article could have been about any random Larry.

How odd that I would think of this all of the sudden without any prompting. The term has just been lurking in the back of my consciousness for many years and suddenly decided it was time to be used.
