TELL TYLER WHY YOU HATE YOUR LIFE RESPONSES
What's up Theory of a Deadman fans and Life Haters alike! Check out the first responses from Tyler Connolly himself, filled to the bring with words of wisdom. Don't forget to comment below to tell us what you think. You told him why you hate your lives...he tells you what to do about it:
Entry 1: Hey Tyler! Laura here I had so much fun at kool haus in Toronto when I went to see TOAD I was right up front I got some wicked pics. So I started to like this guy cause we have been talking for a while and it was all cool and playful and sweet when out of nowhere he drops this rock star attitude (he's a drummer in an increasingly popular band) & what I mean by the rock star attitude is he started asking all these questions about why I want to talk to him and that if it's because he's in a band then he's unimpressed and just basically jumping the gun and judging me without getting to know me more I can understand that some crazy girls out there are like that I just don't think he should be so quick to label me as one of them cause I am really interested in him as a person...not cause he's in a band ...( their band isn't even so much the type of music I listen to it like I don't mind it but it just goes to show that the fact of him being in that band has nothing to do with why I'm talking to him. What do you think i should do and whets the best way around this random change in his behavior?
Tyler Connolly: Hey Laura, glad you had fun at our show! Now lets talk about your rockstar buddy. I can understand from his point of view why he has a hard time trusting people he just meets and what their motives are but I usually sleep with the girls first THEN ask what their names are. Then if we really hit it off I call them a cab instead of having them thrown out of the building. Anyways enough about my daily routine, let him figure you out on his own unfortunately u don't have a choice. if you pressure him hell just run away.
Entry 2: I hate my life because: My husband is on unemployment, I get paid spit and am looking for job #2, I have 3 children, my daughter has been arrested at least 6 times does drugs, has been to rehab, my other daughter is a bitch and just has to have everything, I am about to file for bankruptcy. Oh I forgot my son great kid I love him, but he has dyslexia and is in special ed in school and just started taking medication. That's just the short version. I'm sure I can give you some great material for your next album, :)
Tyler Connolly: Shit! sounds like an episode of Rosanne season 1. Hey, stop taking medication, its how the government keeps ya down! You need to motivate yourself and others will follow. Exercise is a great motivator and be optimistic. you know, look at the glass of jack daniels being half full and not half empty.
Entry 3: I hate my life cause I am a 33-year-old man that just lost a $15 an hour job to a factory in china!
Tyler Connolly: You lost your job to a factory in china!!! How does a factory do your job?
Entry 4: Well I've related to the "Hate My Life" song ever since I bought the album last summer. I work for Wal-Mart. I am one of the lowly in-stock associates that do nothing but unload trucks and stock shelves. The most important and the most thankless job in the store. Every manager at my particular store is a first class douchebag. Especially one of the overnight managers, a "boss" of mine, who is the epitome of a dick. Every time I see this dude, I want to punch him in his face. But I don't because I need my measly $8.60/hr. "I don't get paid nearly enough to put up with all of his shit." Fantastic.
Tyler Connolly: Dude, sounds fantastic, I love walmart! You should take this problem straight to the top. Right to sam Walton himself! Oh wait he's dead. Rent "office space" and buy a six pack and you'll be fine. Oh and ive forwarded this onto your overnight manager as well. Just kidding.
Entry 5: I hate my life because it seems like only when I'm in a hurry is when the people who can't drive their car pull out in front of me and then I'm even later for work! Also, I don't get paid enough to put with even half of shit I put up with! The same goes for "nice girls" as you say about nice guys! All the nice people get shit on!! I love the song and the band! See you guys in Hershey in March! XOXO
Tyler Connolly: Isnt is ironic how when ur late for something people cant drive. I find really old people are the worst! I say once you hit 65 years old you have to take your drivers test every year cuz I swear I see 105 year old ladies driving cadillacs thru stop signs and have no fucking clue where they are.
Entry 6: I know what you mean about people who can't drive...I live in a small town but there are way too many people here. And they don't know a d**n thing about driving. And then there's Wal-Mart...I work there at night...when all the crazy people decide to come in. Oh, and the fact that I'm trying to become a singer and so far...can't find a lead guitarist who wants to stay (I've had three), can't find a drummer or a bassist. This life sucks. Got some tips? Tyler Connolly: Fuck the band! Do it all yourself. Don't rely on others to help you get to where u need to go. Whats keeping u in this town? U said its small and u werk at walmart. Why don't u move? If are serious about singing then go somewhere u can get what u need.
Entry 7: Why does life has to suck so much? Nothing I do is right, nothing I do will make people acknowledge my existence.
Tyler Connolly: Sounds like you have a necessity to get acceptance from others. how come? Live life and do things for yourself, do things that make YOU happy. As soon as you realize that you cant MAKE people perceive you how u want them to the faster you can be happy.
Entry 8: Why you want to help someone?? Are you a Jesus Christ wannabe?? You want to be God? Or...some kind a superhero????
Tyler Connolly: Actually I'm all three. I'm jesus, god and a superhero. My name is superjesusgodman here to save the day! We live in a very selfish world my friend. People do things that make themselves happy as you should too. There is no such thing as a truly selfless person. As I try to help people thru this charity I in turn feel better about myself. Get it? Don't be so cranky.
Enty 9: Well mine is pretty bad at the moment because my girlfriend is over seas and I really miss her. Right now you'll be thinking "toughen up ya sook, that's hardly anything to hate about." Except here's the thing...I have anxiety. And that is what I hate about my life. The worry. Tyler Connolly: That does suck, its tough goin thru life with anxiety, I recommend not taking medication as it will fuck u up werse dude. I would say live your life as if you were single, obviously don't go looking for chicks, but u cant live your life sitting around waiting for someone to get back. Have fun but don't forget her. Keeping busy will help to past the time too. You need to look at this a lot like a breakup and what you would do to get over it. When she gets back you wont be slobering fool and scare the shit out of her.
Entry 10: Hey Tyler, I hate my life cuz I clean up after fuckin' snot nosed kids all night. I clean toilets shit, puke etc. I have a teenage daughter who is a junkie and lives with my bitch of a ex wife. My in-laws hate my guts because I am in their eyes not good enough for their daughter. So my life fuckin' sucks right now. But I will see u March 10th in Ottawa to get my face fuckin' rocked off. Tyler Connolly: Well, in a nutshell ur life does suck sorry. But the rock n roll in Ottawa will help my friend and we WILL be playing HATE MY LIFE so let the therapy begin!
Stay tuned for more responses from Tyler to come.

I don't hate my life. I have two adorable kids, who are theory fans too
, and I get to be a stay at home mom. However, the jackass I'm married too, thinks that means he gets to dictate what I should do. I'm not supposed to make a trip 10 miles away without talking it over with him. I've been a stay at home mom for nearly 7 years, but his behavior has gotten weird lately. He's a truck driver, so he's gone a lot. I am raising our kids alone. I sleep alone, I don't go out, and I take care of the bills, the house, the paper side of the trucking, and mow the lawn. We have sex every two weeks or so. I'm stressed out and crabby. What should I do? Talking is a joke, please don't suggest that.

Why do I hate my life, hmmm, well both my parents died , no siblings, married a person who connned me out of my inheritance left me broke no house then lied about me and then took my kids, sexually molested one of them. Now all alone in a state far from family and friends. But there will be NO Sacrafice today or any day , I refuse to stop fighting and will never back down from what I believe in .

I hate my life couze I live in Greece and there is no chance that I go to any good rock concert(not even you would ever consider coming to Greece for anything but for holidays in mykonos.) moreover Greece is the worse place t get educated, grow up and work and as it seems even teens cannot have a walk first couze there is no time and secondly couze these is no place to go to and even if I go I have to be back at 10.30. Moreover I wake up even the weekends at 7.15 I can't sleep more than 6-6.30 hours and I have explosions of hyperactivity (thank god I listen to rock and play basketball.) school also sucks. I know you can't do anything about it's just nc t have sb listen t your daily "small" problems...

I hate my life because It is sooooooooooooo disfunctional sometimes. I go along and everything works well. Just when I could of had the job of my dreams. The first day 6:00am on my front deck two skunks, eating my garbage, my dog went out to eat them and they got her bad. Twenty four hours of washing my deck and my dog, seven to eight times, I said good night to all and hoped for a better day, today what happened four hours in emergency with my daughter. She has weird foot, just out of the blue. They think it may be infected but the Dr. won't know until two to three days from now, until the swelling gos down. What will tomorrow bring another disfunctional day!!!! It's got to get better than this. Thanks for Listening

I hate my life because I work with a princess, at least she was a teen pagent queen. She likes to wear her crown to work, figuratively. She believes the world owes her and should bow down to her feet. She is looking for a husband and because she is soooo desperate, she cannot find someone to hold on to. That makes me smirk a little.

I hate my life because there is this guy named dave who is a guitarist in this band called theory of a deadman who is my future husband but he doesn't know about me yet lol but seriously Tyler I've only gotten to see you guys live once when you did the festival of lights last summer in Prince Edward Island. It was pouring down rain and it was the best time of my life. I love you guys and plan on trying to get to at least one of your guys summer concerts this year, I plan on it costly me about 500,000.

I hate my life......because I am unemployed, I am due to be going bankrupt after christmas, my boyfriend dumped me and well that's it!
On the up side though at least I can spend my time listening to Theory of a Deadman which incidentally spells TOAD
I just love your music guys I can relate to all the lyrics and when are you going to come over here?
Canada is too far away....

my life sucks because theory of a deadman is not in Minnesota! JK, but it would be nice, since it is close to Canada after all. And one more request, how about a concert here on a Friday or Saturday night, hope thats not asking too much. My life for the moment is actually pretty good, after about a five year stretch of chaos that I lived through, and it is true that is does make you stronger (and older, and wiser) Just one more mother crisis coming in the near future when my son gets to "visit" Afghanistan. But you guys are awesome, I think Santa is bringing me Gasoline again, since my daughter had borrowed out mine to someone and it got destroyed. I'm proud of myself, I let him live. PS In case I didn't mention it, come to Minnesota?????
