met earl today and blew it by being a weirdo.

(long post) basically i had the opportunity today to meet earl & alchemist at a little private type club in LA , and totally fanboyed too hard , and now earl hates me.

i thought it would be funny and make earl laugh if i approached him by just bowing down and calling him “lord sweatshirt”. he thought this was fucking stupid and told me in a very unamused voice to get off the floor. embarrassed i got off the floor and apologized. alchemist just laughed and walked away.

thinking how to make the situation less awkward i apologized again for weirding him out and asked earl for an autograph. he says “sure just leave after that okay” and smiles a little bit , which made me less nervous because he seemed to be joking around.

wanting to keep earl smiling, while he was signing my shirt i stupidly decided to say “thank you daddy” as a joke🤦‍♂️ this immediately made the smile go away. he said “just leave bro ur a weirdo” . i apologized once again and thanked him for the autograph. walking away completely ashamed and disappointed in myself for messing up this encounter so horrendously , he called out “yo” so i turned around excitedly thinking he would say sorry for being rude or something like that (even though i understand why he acted this way , i acted like a fool). well , i say “wassup” , and he turns to one of his buddies and tells him to watch. then earl turns back to me and tells me to bow again. obviously i do as he says. he turns to his buddy again and says “look how pathetic this groupie ass n*gga is. this what i have to deal with everyday. i bet this kid would lick my shoes if i told him. watch”.

earl sticks his shoe in front of my face and tells me to lick until it’s clean. i start to actually do it because idk wtf is going on and my anxiety is crazy at the moment , and earl just looks disgusted that i actually followed his command like a bitch and pulls me off the ground by my hair and has some guards take me out of the club.

i just feel depressed. this is my favorite artist of all time and this is how i acted. i just want to apologize to other fans for being such an embarrassment.
