Do you think they will have an alien at the ramp leading up to their boarding ship (the mother ship will be hovering opposite the moon) with a bar-code scanner looking thing?

Crotch Bat posted:I think you'll find that mom is the reason behind a lot of mentally unstable individuals in this world. Howard is no exception. That's me! Therapy at least once a week. There are a lot of reasons to go to therapy, some people may be going just to have a personal relationship with someone. Some just to have somebody to talk to, and of course people have serious problems and need help navigating through life. What I don't understand is why Howard sees a psychiatrist who does not give him meds instead of a psychologist. I don't think Howard knows the difference.

So, Howard was talking about he thinks he NEEDS people and that is why he is in therapy. He needs Ronnie to drive him around (he lives in the 60s on the UWS - is it possible he doesn't know how to get to his office across the street from Radio City on his own?!) and he NEEDED Jackie. Maybe he NEEDS his therapist in the same way. It's gotta suck to be rich - how do you know if you really need help or if you are just being milked?

Alkaphanel posted:Disclaimer: I know money doesnt buy happiness, and all the other trite crap that can be used to explain away my question chiz posted:The issue is that theres not an issue. I can guess. Then again, that's why I got my rep here. But honestly, I'd like to try to guess. Howard has gone through a lot of poo poo in his life. He's a very determined man who used all of that poo poo to keep pushing himself. His whole life has been pursuing a goal of success that he thinks will reverse all of those things in his life. Or somehow rationalize them so he can find some kind of catharsis and justify everything in his life. But it hasn't happened. It won't happen. It's a very capitalistic conceit because money and success are marketed to people as the end result of working hard. Howard got very lucky and managed to hit this point in his career. But what he really wants is a functioning life. He wants to be rid of the doubts and the anxieties that his parents gave him. He wants to be accepted, to be loved, to just be a normal human being with a loving wife and children and without all of the stress. In short, he wants an ideal life that being a very big name in radio cannot give him. He makes the classic mistake that most ambitious people do: that if you hit this certain point in your job that everything else--personal stuff, mostly--will follow suit because it just will. And I think he's having trouble coming to terms with that.

You could get eaten by a shark" "Why would anyone go (insert outdoor activity, camping, backpacking etc.) Its cold, you sleep on rocks, there are bugs, you could fall and break your leg........" "Why the gently caress would anyone (do anything I don't like)". Insert possible bad poo poo here.

What I know from my own experiences and what I have read is that Howard's parent put self doubt in his mind. Of course I am guessing that it is all real and not a bit His mother put constant fears in him about the Holocaust and family disappearing. Also, she suffered from severe depression and has used meditation to overcome those problems. Mental illness can be genetic and it is transferred through nurturing. Honestly, his father sounds like he was verbally abusive to him. He is fortunate to have a mother and a father though.

Howard's hosed up, but his shrink also doesn't idolize him (I assume) and he's legally obligated to both listen not to rat him out to the press. That's probably rare in his world. Sure most people have trusted friends, but Howard doesn't have the best judgment when it comes to that. The man was BFF with Crazy Cabbie for chrissakes.

As far as I know there is some recorded thing where Howard gets called a moron when he did something... well... moronic. I think Howard is just a huge pussy who is like all those other people who say "I have OCD cause I don't like to ~". He wants to be special, so he makes up all this crap so people pay attention to him.

I know this is the "way out there" category but could Howard's marriage to Beth be causing some family tension? He makes vague comments about family issues from time to time. I know his daughters don't live with him but I never hear anything about Beth's involvements with them. Also when Howard has his parents over or he goes to visit them, Beth always seems to be somewhere else.

Beth isn't Jewish and therefore cannot have true Jew children which is why Howard will not impregnate her. I have no idea, any crazy idea is as good as any other crazy idea.

Howard has mentioned a few times that Beth gets along well with his daughters and his parents and they love her. Beth is young so she likes to go out, have fun and not stay home like Howard. There have been times when she goes out with friends and leave him at home.

I don't want to encroach on the Mad Doctor's territory, but Howard's "family" issues are probably something as mundane as "A random third cousin got knocked up at 15 and is now asking me for money, do I tell them to gently caress off and not set a precedent for tertiary begging relatives (Cousin Richie) or do I help them because it seems like a legitimate cause". I'm sure it's extremely boring and only an issue to Howard because his ego has turned whatever random thing it is into HIS problem. If it was a legit scandal or anything of any interest, TMZ would have poked it up by now.

I'll throw my crazy theory out. Closet homosexuality. Covered up by a 30 year career of bikinis, tickle chairs, and sybian rides. It also explains Ralphs presence and the extreme willingness to pay a huge price to anyone who can keep things confidential. It can also explain: - 1st divorce - 2nd wife (model) with a cold fish sex life - parental/family issues - Obsession with cleanliness and hiding his jerk rags, etc. Wow, I almost believe my own bullshit.

Alkaphanel posted:It can also explain: I don't think Howard is a closet homosexual. His divorce can easily be explained by his transition into "Hampton Howie." Beth is literally his dream girl, so marrying her makes sense. Number 3 explains number 4. His mom (at least once) embarrassed him in front of his friends when she found his underwear with some skidmarks.
