You know, it was because working at that store,
3
I just got caught up in the little life there and it's,
4
you know, it's interesting because You know,
5
you spent your 20s going to comedy clubs and you know, building a career.
6
So I'm selling my 20s there and Well,
7
it's one of those things where it's like,
8
well This isn't my dream This isn't what I wanted to do working at a video store for years.
9
Uh, I wanted to actually make movies.
10
It's not my dream, what I'm doing. But it's dream adjacent!
11
It's close to my dream!
12
It's close to my dream!
13
I get to watch movies all fucking day.
14
I get to talk about movies all fucking day.
15
I don't have to work at a pizza parlor.
16
I don't have to- I'm not delivering pizzas.
17
I'm not- I'm not busting ass, uh, as a bartender.
18
I'm not busting ass doing menial jobs.
19
I mean this is the kind of job I
20
That you know I do if I I'd go to the store if I wasn't paid to go to the store Yeah,
21
so it's like you know,
22
but but for a couple years it did put me to sleep
23
It did kind of put me to sleep It put my ambitions to sleep a little bit because I was happy enough.
24
Yeah, I was happy and just like one of these days I'll Rob you didn't have the fire.
25
I didn't have the fire and And when I got the fire,
26
when I eventually got the fire back again,
27
and it was a life-changing thing,
28
it was a life-changing day.
29
It was, um, we had a buddy of ours named Steve-o.
30
Yeah.
31
And he was one of,
32
uh, uh, um, we had different living arrangements.
33
And at one point in time,
34
me and Steve-o were living in the same house together.
35
Running in the back of the,
36
towards the back of the store.
37
The dude house.
38
Yeah.
39
It was where everyone would hang out. And, um...
40
But now, Stevo was older than the rest of us.
41
So, he was almost five years older than us,
42
but he didn't seem like it.
43
He was a young guy.
44
Yeah, like five years younger mentally.
45
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Or emotionally.
46
Yeah, yeah.
47
And, um, but... So he hits 30. And he starts changing.
48
He starts changing, like, drastically.
49
I mean, he was like one of the funniest guys I ever knew,
50
and he was this really,
51
really funny stoner dude, and really cool.
52
And all of a sudden,
53
he's like angry about things,
54
and now he's not quite as funny,
55
and now he's got this.. issue.
56
And so we're roommates and there's this one night that he's kind of like all,
57
he's kind of disgusted with his life.
58
And he starts ranting and he's describing a situation
59
that was very common if you were a kid growing up without a degree or anything in the 80s,
60
especially in California, where it's like,
61
you can't get any really good jobs.
62
But like You could work at Licorice Pizza.
63
And if you're an okay employee,
64
you could work at Licorice Pizza for a couple of years.
65
And maybe you could even become assistant manager or a manager.
66
Maybe they send you to another store.
67
And maybe you worked there for three years and that's really great.
68
But then, you know, all of a sudden the district manager doesn't like you.
69
You run a file of somebody higher up in corporate.
70
And all of a sudden,
71
next thing you know, you're fired and you're out in the street.
72
Again it's management.
73
Yeah.
74
Okay.
75
And so, now you've just spent three years at Licorice Pizza.
76
Now you could get a job at TRW or some places like a real job job or,
77
well those are kind of hard to get,
78
but you can work at Warehouse Records and Tapes tomorrow because you just had three years at Licorice Pizza.
79
Same thing with Wild West Clothier,
80
same thing with Miller's Outpost,
81
same thing with any of these kind of stores.
82
Next thing you know, you're 28
83
and the only jobs you've ever had are minimum wage jobs behind a counter
84
that were designed for kids to pay for their gas.
85
And you've like spent your entire 20s doing that.
86
And then you start getting bitter.
87
And you start getting bitter.
88
And but, but he was not just bitter about the job aspect of it.
89
He, but I knew he,
90
oh my God, he's telling me the truth.
91
I'm learning something here.
92
Because he goes, you know,
93
Quentin, you think that we're this really great team,
94
we're this really great crew.
95
Well, we are.
96
I mean, this is that time of your 20s.
97
We're like your group of friends or your family.
98
And I'm like, well, we are.
99
Quentin, at 20, I worked at South Bay Cinemas.
100
And I hung out with a bunch of guys just like you.
101
And some girls there too.
102
But it was a bunch of guys just like you.
103
And then I stopped working at South Bay Cinema.
104
Then I worked at Miller's Outpost.
105
I hung out with a bunch of guys just like you.
106
And we did everything, just like we do.
107
We went to movies together,
108
we went out and we dated amongst the girls there, everything.
109
Then I worked at Alicia Pisa for four years with a bunch of guys just like you.
110
I wasted my life hanging out with a bunch of guys just like you.
111
And they all go away at a certain point And I realized this guy's kind of telling the truth.
112
I had this he's showing me a truth about him He's he I'm I'm
113
This is coming from somewhere and then all of a sudden he still hung around us He still liked us,
114
but then he started making it a point to Touch base with some of his high school friends.
115
They were still around so he's not just hanging out with guys Four years younger five years younger than him anyway,
116
I'm turning 25 around this time So I'm having my own little okay,
117
but what have I done with my life so far so far fucking nothing
118
So I'm having my own little anxiety hitting 25,
119
but I've seen what it's like five years from now Yeah,
120
when you turn 30 a window to the future when you're to 30 and you're in this situation and and
121
And there was like one night that I had what I used to call,
122
I would do it every once in a while,
123
I haven't done it in a long time, thankfully.
124
I would have a Quentin Detest Fest,
125
where I would stay up all night long and rather than give myself excuses,
126
I would look at everything that I'm fucking up in my life
127
or everything I'm not doing or whatever and just not give myself any fucking excuses out.
128
Just like nail it.
129
And I would spend like all night laying out everything I'm doing that's wrong
130
and then I would spend the last two hours figuring out how I can change it.
131
And as opposed to just doing it and then going to get some sleep
132
and then you forget about it and fall back into your routine,
133
I decided to change my life.
134
I was like, look, the problem is that I'm living in the South Bay,
135
and even though I drive to Los Angeles,
136
one, I've got to not worry about this job anymore.
137
I've got to just move to Hollywood.
138
I've got to get involved there.
139
I've got to meet other people that are in the business.
140
And if I have to work manpower jobs,
141
you know, where you just work like four days at this place and four days at that place,
142
well, then that's fine.
143
And by the way, I shouldn't be making money until I'm making money doing what I want to do.
144
And that was ever a danger.
145
All right.
146
But then, you know, the next thing I knew,
147
you know, I moved out of the South Bay.
148
And then I couldn't move into Hollywood.
149
I couldn't afford Hollywood, but I got to Fort Koreatown.
150
And I was close enough.
151
And literally, the minute I kind of moved out there,
152
I met a guy who wrote low-budget horror movies.
153
And then through him I met other guys that wrote low-budget horror movies
154
and this guy who directs a few low-budget horror And this guy who produces a couple and well But yeah,
155
you meet one person and
156
that introduces you to three other people now all of a
157
sudden I actually knew people who were actually making movies
158
and the thing about it was it was like also Well if these guys can do what I can do
159
Hmm because they weren't too special right yeah,
160
you know that's the weird realization that you end up having yeah Yeah,
161
and then literally, it wasn't like everything changed,
162
but like within a year and a half,
163
from moving out of the South Bay,
164
moving into the Hollywood area,
165
within a year and a half,
166
I was finally able to make a living as a writer.

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
