Donny is a real one! I meet him at a meeting down here one time during my fuck-up phase, came up to me after the meeting and asked if I skated, to which I obliged. I was trying really hard to not fan out on him, as kind of the whole point is that we are all human beings on an equal plane, but did acknowledge that I knew who he was and thanked him for everything that he had for skating and that I was always a fan.
I'll always be pretty open about my issues, in an attempt to destigmatize addicts as useless pieces of shit with nothing to contribute.
