His television show has been cancelled, one of his ex-wives has obtained a restraining order and taken away his children, and just one month ago he was rushed to hospital after a drugs binge. And yet, nobody seems to be doing a thing to help Charlie Sheen.
At this point on the internet, he's approaching meme status. He's appeared on most of the major talk shows, and each time has given a rambling interview, spewing nonsensical comments, and claiming that he's not addicted to anything, and "cannot die". He's taken swipes at AA, his former employers, and generally anyone that's questioned his actions.
And yet, these comments are being treated, not as worrying, but as hilarious:
"I am on a drug. It's called Charlie Sheen. It's not available because if you try it once you will die. Your face will melt off and your children will weep over your exploded body. It's too much."
“Can’t is the cancer of happening.”
(On the possibility of relapse) "No. Not going to. Period. The end. I blinked and I cured my brain."
Even by his own admittance, Sheen has done a lot of drugs, and is on a downward spiral. And yet, the only thing that seems to be happening is that he's wheeled out onto chat shows, booked for interviews. Even if he has quit drugs, he's still obviously not fully well.
And yet, the circus trundles on.
