How Do They Do It?

Fate was kind enough to reserve my normal seat on the train again today: Next to the craziest, most unstable person available. This woman had a funk to her not unlike rotting vegetation, several bristly patches of stubble on her double chin and, since we were seated so as to be facing one another, I got to watch as she silently pissed herself.

How exactly do you get to this point? I generally try to empathize — I understand being down on your luck — but I can’t imagine the chain of events that leads to indifference toward publicly pissing your pants; how do you fuck up THAT BAD in life? Barring a serious mental problem, you basically have to be completely incapable of learning from your mistakes. Huh.
