The Invincible Charlie Sheen’s Old-School Christmas: Chokin’ Ladies Out
Posted on December 26, 2009
Damn, Charlie Sheen: the slate was clean for what? Two years? Does it matter anymore? Charlie Sheen choked his wife out for Christmas. He got arrested, she’s not talking to cops, he’s still the highest paid actor in television.
A long time ago, back when Radar wasn’t a Zombie Radar, Charlie Sheen got married and it was carefully observed that, at his third wedding, Sheen noted:
“The first one was a show, the second one was a con, and this one is the real deal.”
If by show, you mean, “I shot her in the arm.” Oh, no, wait, that was fiancee Kelly Preston. But if by “con,” he meant, “that time I was married to Denise Richards and she accused me of child molestation so in retaliation I accused her of beating the shit out of me,” he’d be correct, I guess. So when he talks about the “real deal” he must’ve meant “the one time in my life I’ll be in a relationship without a domestic abuse spat that involves police being called,” well, he was wrong. Because he’s now being accused of choking wife Brooke Mueller out.
He was charged with second-degree assault, menacing and criminal mischief and was housed in the Pitkin County jail, cops said. He later posted $8,500 bond after speaking with a county judge, according to police spokeswoman Stephanie Dasaro in Aspen.
No, but really Charlie Sheen, what’s wrong with you?
Conspiracy Theorist? Check.
Racist? Check.
Druggie? Check.
Wifebeater? Check.
Also, Charlie Sheen, what’s wrong with the people you marry or try to marry?
Kelly Preston ended up with John Travolta, and they both ended up scary Scientologists.
Denise Richards went totally fucking bonkers and had a show on E! where all bonkers people get shows.
This one was drunk and also isn’t talking to cops which will just make this worse.
Better question: What’s wrong with us? How is Charlie Sheen the highest paid actor on TV? Do you know anybody who actually watches Two and a Half Men? The real conspiracy theory is how Charlie Sheen still has a career. The guy is a bona. fide. fuckup. He is also invincible.
This incident, like every other Charlie Sheen incident, will matter not to anybody.
Charlie Sheen could burn down the Chateau Marmont with His Holiness the Dalai Lama in it after getting too crazy with his homemade meth lab, and Hollywood wouldn’t hesitate to give him the leading role in a six-picture feature adaptation of Redwall as the lead mouse. And he’d win an Oscar for it.
Whatever. When this civilization is dead and the Avatard aliens or whoever are trying to understand our history and they get to the part about Charlie Sheen’s career and the human compassion it somehow fueled itself on to keep going and going and never fail to die, all they’ll need to do is watch this scene, which is basically the answer, and also, might serve as an essential part of the complex algorithm that is our ability as a species to conjure up forgiveness, or indulge ourselves in masochism, or something.
I think we like his smile. That has to be it.
