What factors contributed to The Beatles' bitterness?

4- Four dudes who make art or sports or anything…always find themselves fighting and then splitting up. The only exception is Phish because Phish has a stupid “no criticism” rule. So you can’t then compliment them either because — true story — Trey says it’s like saying other things suck because they didn’t compliment those things. This might be why their first five albums are so amazing and then it slipped with some exceptions. Metallica in 1986 lost their bassist Cliff Burton in a freak bus accident, and then they got Jason Newsted from Flotsom & Jetsom and just murderously hazed him until he left. I would have beat the SHIT out of those Metallica guys. He tried to form a new band while with Metallica and they did what they could to kill that too. But the new guy Robert Trujillo is so cool. They should just call the band Trujillo. In the documentary for “St Anger” I saw, they select him out of many and then offer him one million dollars up front to show him they’re serious. But here’s the thing—

3- Their relationship as wealthy Englishmen to the English department of taxation was not only terrible but fatal. Trying to get out of giving away 9/10th of their profits to the government is what opens the door for #2. World War II caused countries all over that part of the world to start going socialist during the 1950s and 60s under the guise of capitalism in order to rebuild Europe. Even after 1970, Lennon found New York City to be a better place to live in privacy and frugality even with the FBI watching him AND New York City prices for tiny closets for rooms AND tourists bumping into you and wanting things.

2- Their relationship with the record companies was always terrible. Basically the reason they got millions was because a few other people got billions. Brian Epstein’s death and at that particular stage in their careers had turned all their allies into yes men, because the men in charge were not there because they were Simon Cowell first, but Paula Abdul first and Simon Cowell second. Simon appreciates brute evil honesty from the shady male guests who the woman judges yell at for being penises who freak them out. Paula does not have such appreciation. Who knows the ways Epstein would have smoothed and tempered and prevented and properly LEVERAGED. And without the kind of personal extra extra that causes unnecessary rifts. Imagine Paula McCartney here when he sees you with a roast beef sandwich at your secretary’s desk.

7- The premise that they got high and then their music changed…means that they discovered something faulty about their music, to their estimation. That creates bitterness. Because just like there’s no 100 percent mutual break-ups…who was the first person to say “we should make something better then this shit?”

1- The effects of the particular drugs they enjoyed the most are evident in their production. You go go go in your twenties, and everything outside of heroin sickness is a motivator. Then in your mid-thirties if you’re still alive you basically just dream of naps. Since John got into depressants and Paul got into stimulants, Paul is orchestrating the group in the later stages while in the early ones is not as creatively commanding as John. That’s depressants and stimulants. Then you see how John is burnt out at 24 after just a library of attempted material?

6- Yoko and Linda wanted to see what they could get their men to do on their behalf. John might have wanted out, and that’s Yoko’s plausible deniability when people wonder why she was the only woman on Earth who wouldn’t voraciously discourage a break-up when it’s amidst. And women from what I’ve seen have an alarmingly hard time acting lucky or so much as amazed or surprised when they get with Paul McCartney. Linda was like a truck driver and Paul was a new big rig. To you and me, this might be a daunting relationship to maneuver. He can lay anybody. But Linda just hops in and turns the story of the Beatles into fucking Pacific Rim.

Hi everybody! I have been looking at posts on narcs and narc abuse on here and if has really helped me out a lot. I am currently struggling with my situation and need some advice/support. I met a narc last year, everything seemed to good to be true. Love bombing, always texting calling and taking me on dates. Everything changed when someone warned me about him out in public in front of him and who he is. This caused a conflict with us and the love bombing seized. he would tell me that everything is okay and i can come and talk. He would set a time limit on me and kick me out after that. he would then text me like everything was fine and we hung out again and after that he completely ghosted me for one week. He came back and texted me a week later laughing about the ghosting and acting like nothing had happened. he continued to text me ( not like in the beginning) make plans with me, then on the day of the plans he would just ghost me. One day he would act interested the next silence. i contacted him a month later and he acted like nothing happened. He was on a vacation and sent me a picture of another woman ( someone he allegedly met on the trip) to strike a reaction but i never gave him one. After the trip he came to my place and was extremely rude, accusing me of going on dates with a bunch of men. The next day he accused me of being an alcoholic and that he wanted nothing to do with me but said well maybe we can be "friends" then ghosted me i assumed at this point it was over and i would never hear from him again. He contacted me on the holiday a month later acting like everything was great. We ended up hanging out a month or so later and when we hung out it went well, i thought things were going in the right direction. after we hung out.. silence. I would try to text him and if he replied it would be very short then he just stopped replying. He ghosted me for almost three months. I thought he was done this time and of course he popped up again like nothing happened. At this point i was getting sick of if so i questioned him as to why he dissapeared and always does this. Of course he had some sob story about a injury and family member dying of cancer. I felt pity for him and he gave me an apology.. so i took him back stupidly. things seemed to be going smooth for a couple months, of course until his family member died and his injury got better he never contacted me and was distant. Menawhile, i was there for him during the difficult time for him. He lied to me about the funeral and never wanted to chat. I was chasing him and he would always claim nothing was wrong but when i said i thought he used me when he was down he could not handle it and would always tell me he didnt care and to go away. I would get so upset i would try texting him to work it out he would barelt respond and if he did he would not be nice about it. we did hang out a couple times after that, he would ignore me after. One day i was like hey i think you are seeing someone else, and i was like well ixam seeing someone so no problem if you are he said " buy bye good luck with your new guy stop contacting me" i was devastated and tried to get into contact with him for weeks then i just gave up and accepted it was over. He ended up contacting me a month later acting like everything was fine. He wanted to go out and have drinks i told him i would. He and i both seemed to have a great time. He ends up ignoring me again. I kept texting him trying to figure out what was wrong. He kept saying everything was fine and i said ok can we hang out again? He said maybe i was like why? He just kept saying maybe … our last conversation we had… i said what is wrong ? He said nothing is wrong everything is fine. I asked him why he keeps saying maybe. He said " maybe but i dont want to see you right now" i said why? He saix " im just not feeling it, if i wanted to date i would" i said why did you contact me less then a week ago wanting to go out? He said i didnt.. even though he did. So i said should i just move on or what? He said whatever you want to do. So i said that he was really confusing me and asked him if he had anything more to say before i move on? My messages were turning green so i panicked he blocked me and reacted irrationally. I said " omg did you block me? My messages are not going through. Even texted him on my work phone asking what was up. And called him twice ( please dont judge me i know it is pathetic i never was this type of girl before him) so he replied and said " Ok I'll block you now" then immedietly blocked me. He has never blocked me before since I have met him he will just ghost. Is this ths final discard aka " grand finale? Did i just push him too far? this has upset me so much its hard to even function.

5- Metallica, just like the Beatles, try to balance their home life with their work life. It’s impossible. Because you’re turning your brain off as well. Fuck that. As such, the Beatles tried to have girlfriends and wives who liked singing and making suggestions about their jobs. James Hetfield is like a normal dude or a girl you might be seeing — she wants it all to come to an end at 4 PM because not only is he going home to the kids like they don’t have fucking Playstation like normal kids with busy dads and it’s totally cool they’re busy, who are these fucking kids who want us around for a single moment anyway — but here’s where Hetfield gets wifey…the rest of Metallica was not allowed to listen to the tapings after 4 PM either. So they jam…then go home until the next day. Fucking asshole. So Lars and Kirk can’t go over their jamming. Because James explicitly feels like things are moving without him. Lars…THAT motherfucker Hetfield is WORSE than Napster. At least John brought Yoko to the studio since he had to see her so bad.
