How often do you mutter those words?

I think it's a daily thing for me. I say the worst, bluntest, raunchiest things all the time then chuckle for hours... even though I know I shouldn't.

Sometimes... someone's gotta say it.

I'm starting to think I need to shorten my descriptions when face to face with people.

eg) You shouldn't do that because it will result in both of us being very unhappy.

that would be better than: You shouldn't do that because you always screw it up and if you damage it one more time I'm going to lose my mind and make life hell for a week.

Here's the main problem.

When I "lose it" whilst having an argument IRL I go into a detailed explanation of why I'm mad, how long I've been studying the problem, the history of why the person's actions are proven to be wrong and the likely result if they continue that way.

I feel like I've just hit them with a sledgehammer but they often say "thank you for being so nice about it." But I don't feel nice. I hate it.

The raunchy stuff... well, most people laugh and the ones that don't should learn to.

Really?? I can keep my sledgehammer?

To be fair, I practically beg people to tell me what is wrong with me and they won't.

Where are my scales? Will this be between me and God until the end?

Of course you keep the sledgehammer - how else do get your ideas across?

Why do you believe that something is wrong with you? - (OK, we all have something wrong with us - or so we are led to believe) - we are all different.

Who needs scales? (Unless they're weighted in your favour)

Don't ask me about God. But then, don't ask God about me.

Ahh yes, Know the type quite well. I work with one every day.

I usually stare him right in the eye and say, "You're an as.s.".

Then he tells me I have a chip on my shoulder.

I take a deep breath, flick it off (cause he's right:-5)

Then tell him he's still an as.s.

:D

some good answers.

I've gotta think it over a bit more and decide whether it helps or hinders me to say what is on my mind all the time.

The older I get, the less inclined I am to be diplomatic. I would imagine this is only natural, as it's wearing over time to deal with other human beings. I mean, look at way they act! You should see me commuting on the bike (bicycle) sometimes. Once upon a time I was meek and polite, and now I chew people out at the drop of a hat. My missus says I'm scary.

I've said some pretty crazy things to actors before. They get tired of people shmoozing them so I decided to be the anti-shmooze. Got them laughing pretty hard... luckily.

actor: I just finished writing a book.

me: Congratulations. Think anyone will buy it?

Without thinking I asked my boss (who is also president of the company) if he had just visited the "library" because he returned to his office with a magazine in his hand as if he had just left the men's room. Sometimes I forget who I'm talking to when I'm joking around.

I was so embarrassed.

It is by design.

I might password it before I upload the stories. There are a variety of people that know where my site is and I have strange visions of my parents' friends reading my graphic tales and then sitting with me at a tea party trying not to blush.
