Oh sure, they&#8217;re wacky because they&#8217;re on tv, but you know, you&#8217;re unlikely to find a genuinely terrible person in those types of shows. Well, meet Lucky. This one starts off with Lucky being interviewed by an unseen person. Lucky tells us a bit about his average day and his basic philosophy in life, but we don&#8217;t really see it in action until Lucky tears the side mirror off a car. From here he uses one of several phones (or an internet cafe) to sell the mirror online and, as he&#8217;s stealing them off cars, there&#8217;s always somebody in the area who can use a mirror. Things go downhill for Lucky from there, as we also see him mugging a guy and pretending to get injured after being &#8220;hit&#8221; by a car, and all the while his interviewer is trying to get Lucky to see what he&#8217;s doing to other people and to change his ways. Finally the two of them have a confrontation, and I can say no more without giving away the whole thing. I&#8217;ll just say that you&#8217;re not going to see it coming, and I feel confident in saying that even if my saying that will instantly put you on your guard, expecting a twist. Even so, you will no see it coming. That ending is more than a little bit haunting, but Oskars earns every bit of it. Check it out if you want to learn how to be a professional asshole, or if perhaps you just want a little more insight into their existence. $6<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-23120\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12-218x300.jpg\" alt=\"lucky12\" width=\"218\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12-218x300.jpg 218w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12-744x1024.jpg 744w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12-181x250.jpg 181w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12-127x175.jpg 127w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12-27x38.jpg 27w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12-156x215.jpg 156w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/10\/lucky12.jpg 859w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 218px) 100vw, 218px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Mini Kus #22: Lucky We&#8217;ve all gotten to see various &#8220;interview&#8221; shows in recent years (The Office, Parks &amp; Recreation) where we get to know fundamentally decent people.
