I said it’s possible for him to get sober, not probable.

If it’s literally impossible then that would absolve him from responsibility for his own life. That’s why sad sacks wallow in the “I’m doomed! There’s nothing I can do!” narrative — it’s way easier than owning your shit and making amends.

To believe Ralph is truly beyond help is to believe he’s not at fault for continuing to degenerate. I’m not giving him that pass.
Hard agree on this in general, but I do think that the situation Ralph has found himself in is rare even amongst junkies.

As an aside, I remember first find out about WingsOfRedemeption, and thinking it must me miserable that the one thing you do to pay the bills just results in your being harassed and trolled mercilessly. Not to handwave some of the behaviour Wings did to bring this onto himself - the point is that he appeared stuck without any good decisions. Mind you, he's since gone on anti-depressents, got a wife, beat up Boogie and seems to be a bit happier and less of a lolcow.

Ralph is in a similar situation - lots of the things that would rein in Ralph's behaviour are not present in his life. No boss, a low effort job he can do inside, no responsibility. This enables his behaviour. I think if Ralph is ever to change all of this needs to go - but will Ralph intentionally impoverish himself and take on a job of his own accord? Literally never happen, he will never make that choice. It would be difficult for most people to make, then again Ralph's a fat weirdo. If he was forced to because the money dried up? Maybe, but he may also just commit seppuku.
 
He wouldn’t even acknowledge the state of Arkansas his daddy gave him & pretended he was from Tennessee.
If it helps any, maybe he’d respond better to male therapists calling out his bullshit in person to his face in a nonconfrontational way? Black homo therapists?
Nvm hadn’t had coffee yet and am thinking more clearly now. Resuming shitposting.
If he’s anything like me, he’d prefer a female therapist. They gave me a male therapist at first, but I told my PO under NO circumstances was I talking about ANY sexual shit with a man. Well, that backed them right down and they started sending me to Allie and she’s really been great for me. She really likes me and if it wasn’t for her dumb cop husband we’d probably already be together for real by now.

That sounds about right. Losing two marriages, being separated from his kids, his mother dying, his career in shambles, thousands in debt, no credit, no car, all of his pets are dead.....

Being forced to get a job is what finally makes Ralph kick a chair.

If someone actually wanted to save Ralph, they’d have to start by moving him into a small condo type of deal, where all the furniture, the computer, the bathroom etc are downstairs and the refrigerator/kitchenette are upstairs.
 
From the time he was a little league kid too fat for his uniform until present, he never had anything to feel good about on a level other than the most superficial. He doesn’t have friends, he’s not a likeable person, he’s a collection of the primordial stew personality disorders emerge from.
Fat, too.

This is known as the ‘broken shoelace’ and is a very common situation where the afflicted white-knuckles through objectively devastating circumstances (almost always created by the person themselves) and one day a broken shoelace or something else minimal turns out to be the straw that breaks the camel pig’s back. The person is so spent by pretending they’re in control for years on end that it eventually takes very little to push them over the edge.

Sometimes “giving up” just means deciding it’s time to join the winning team.

Allie's a beautiful woman, but she's married, Lorne!

Allie did say your problem was not being able to say "no" so it's great that you're able to find this boundary.
 
WingsOfRedemeption
One thing that separates wings and Ralph is wings can laugh at himself. Being able to accept yourself is not something Ralph is capable of, as can be seen in every one of his cope apology posts. There's always blame of someone/something. Ralph has never said, "I'm a fucking degenerate retard, I don't know why, I need to work on that". It's always "Harry/Meigh/Faith/Vickers/Dead mom/xannys/liars/alogs have caused me to do X, and I need to work on not letting them get to me."

Allie is so smart you’d be shocked how smart she is! How she figured that out! That’s all that’s ever been wrong with me. I’m too nice! Too giving! Too forgiving! Too perfect! Yep, take my advice Gunt, from one for real good ol’ down home country boy to another, a therapist like Allie is just what you need. Not MY Allie, though. She’s MINE!!! I don’t care what that cawksuckin’ cawp of a husband of hers says about it!

Right, but he doesn't care about his wives but for the fact they give him things for free. His behaviour shows it.

He likes streaming because people give him money for free.

Sure he cares about his momma in retrospect, but he sponged off of her social security for her disability for years and then kept living in her shack while he didn't return the favour.

Ralph wants life for free, and he wants it easy, a job would KILL him because he will have to work. He will have to be accountable. It will also damage his ego. Plus, he wouldn't be able to support the life he is accustomed to.
 
The IRS will come after him then. He’ll be charged interest + penalties on top of whatever back taxes are due. You don’t want to fuck with the IRS.
Ralph has to pay taxes to mexican IRS now cause he pursued a residence.

And the great thing about pseudo-socialists countries, you can go to jail just for failing to declare your taxes:

He owes both now. And by pursuing residency and declaring publicly the intention of never returning, the IRS could nail him to the wall first. I say could, because you have to owe serious money and have forfeitable assets. Most realistic scenario: nothing happens like that to him. He gets in trouble with the tax authorities (the moment his landlord files an eviction, Mexican immigration takes a sudden interest) and Mexico aborts the retort back to the US by mail. Somehow he begs Dick not to have his pelvis explode, Dick gets gunted, and content is full of corn the entire time.
 
“If you want to overcome your wife, you gotta overcome your mama.”

Direct hit, JLP.
I was always curious if JLP hates women because he’s a fag, or because his own mother just dropped off her defective son to spend his childhood on a plantation with grandparents while she went to live with new man, or both.

He seems to also really hate step-dads no doubt because he hated his own.

I don't think that's a requirement. I have read horrorstories where people who owe low 4 digits in taxes getting annihilated by the IRS.

Land of the free by the way.
Is that why they say “Freedom ain’t free.”?Gotta pay for it by blood or treasure or both. As always, no free lunch.

Unless you’re really fucking poor. Pretty sure the unabomber didn’t have to pay federal taxes during his years in the shack, though I’m sure the county demanded a few bucks property tax for the shack.

Ralph can get out of paying taxes as soon as his superchats charity drops below $17k annually…and he pays off a decade of unpaid back tax.
