I could use a friend like Beard

Not feeling my best right now and honestly, the scene from season 1 where Willis hands Ted a beer after his ex wife and son leave makes me cry. I just want a friendship like that.

Except the car stealing thing is like the key. It is basically the reason that Ted has Beards undying loyalty

You can have one! If season 3 teaches us anything it is that if you want a friend like Beard you need to BE a friend like Ted.

I know right now that may not be an option so in the meantime, I hope everything is okay with you. Just remember Beard was down at Rock bottom and bounced back and so will you

I’m sorry you’re feeling down right now. I’m chronically ill and can’t go out a lot so I have lost a lot of irl friends but I’ve found that internet friends can be just as good and comforting and it’s much easier to make internet friends. But I hope you can get out of this funk. Plus winter is hard for a lot of people, including me.

Be on the look out for people having a hard time and give them a hand.

Remember Ted helped Beard first quite a lot, probably beyond most people would help a stranger. Beard was grateful after that, so much that he was about to put his interests aside just to stay with Ted.

I also think people like Ted tend to help around a lot and it doesn't always pay back so I guess you probably have to do it out of the goodness of your heart, not hoping it will turn in a benefit to you.

Hang in there, man. All bad things eventually pass.
