Never said the movie wasn't humorous. When they tried to throw the ashes into the ocean and they blew back in his face, that was funny.

But let's break the dude down and analyze:

he was a drug addict and drunk who's highlight was hanging out at a bowling alley with other losers. He had no job and didn't want one, so logically we can assume he was in section 8 housing receiving food stamps and welfare.
All he wanted to do was smoke dope, drink beer, hang out at a bowling alley, and spend other people's money.

The character made absolutely no contribution to society but took and took and took, and has no problem with that. He didn't care and he did not try and had no conscience.

But what really fries me is this: there people people in this country who actually think being a total bum, a total loser, a complete worthless parasite, is actually cool. You figure that one out.
