I am declaring today a "BS Free Zone".
No particular reason why, but mostly because I think we need it. As my dad likes to say, "It's time to put on my hip waders", and I am thinking a drive out to Cabella's for some waders might be in line. Because there is a whole lotta poo getting shoveled round these parts, and I am feeling sort of stuck in the thick of it....
So this post is for all of my peeps who want to say no to BS of any kind. Who want to declare today a BS Free Zone.
Gotta a crappy husband/boyfriend/wife/girlfriend who needs to commit/stay committed/recommit or just Sh** or get off the pot? Or maybe he/she is simply just a jerk?
Toss this at them:
Got an ex who simply won't go away, won't stop asking for favors, won't stop asking for exceptions/favors/pity, and won't stop hurting/ignoring/screwing up the kids??
Sounds like they need this:
Gotta friend who is hurting your feelings, spreading rumors, talking down to you, using you, or simply just treating you like doggity poo on their shoe?
Show them this:
Got some sort of professional service provider charging you an arm and a leg for doing a simple task that they could do for 1/8th of the cost if they really wanted to? Or someone trying to screw you over?
Give them a taste of this:
Got a coworker/business associate who spends more time thinking about themselves, or about their career advancement, or how far they can jam their face up the boss's rear?
Remind them that this is a BS Free Zone.
Surrounded by less than genuine people, or people who take advantage of you, or people that cut you down, or people that belittle or insult you?
Kindly, patiently, helpfully remind them of this:
It is important to remember that we all peddle BS from time to time. It's a given. We're human, and we're flawed. So there may come a time when someone reminds YOU that they're a BS Free Zone. That is entirely possible. Yes, it's true. Sometimes WE are the BS peddlers.
Today is my turn, though.
Stop the madness. If you are full of BS, try taking a shower and getting an enema, then coming back in my vicinity when you're clean and clear again. Because today...right now....right here....right at this exact spot in time....
I am declaring a BS Free Zone.
Thank you for your cooperation.

P.S. I am considering ordering T shirts....who wants one?
