The Chronicles of Bruiser:
Sure, if you’ve heard about the Chronicles of Bruiser (the BA street sweeper working in Tennessee) than you’re thinking “Dude, you are late to the game.” You’d be correct. I’ve had the PDF sitting on my e-reader for a long time. I started it and fell in love with the stories and the real life aspect of it and then I forgot about it…
I just finished the story tonight… There is a lot to learn from Mr. Bruiser. Work hard, have fun, and life’s short. 90% of the pages you will be laughing your ass off. I’ll admit… I shed more than a couple tears near the end when he faced the reality of something I fear…
So to Bruiser: my hat’s off to you sir. I’d buy ya a beer (hell a whole pack even) if ever I met you and had the funds.
If you’ve never read the stories of Bruiser they were originally posted on the Something Awful forums. There are links here and there to PDF’s of this Legendary Thread (http://www.legendarythreads.com/). The only link I have does not have the full story so I’ll give you this link to get you started and then you can find the version with the endings yourself: http://www.scribd.com/doc/33096/Bruiser-A-street-sweepers-tales (hint: page 1 of the full story PDF you’ll have to find will have the image I posted here.)
