People publicly pursuing purpose
If you are one of the two women who read this here blog. Move along. I am about to rip the boys a new one and it might be embarrassing...
Are they gone?
Good.
Gentlemen,
First you need to read today's entry of Joe's blog.
You can skim and get the idea.
I don't want to point in giggle. There are a couple of important object lessons here:
1.) Poker is a fuggin game. It is a fun game. It is a challenging game. It is a social game sometimes. But nonetheless, IT IS A GAME. Nerds play it. You play it too so, ipso facto, YOU ARE A NERD! (I took philosophy of logic in college)
It is neither a life or a reasonable facsimile. It is not a replacement for important things. Don't ever think it is. If you do, you run the risk of having your life bite you right on the johnson.
2.) Those of us with significant others in your life ARE FUGGIN LUCKY!
Consider this: if you were attracted to guys, would you be attracted to someone like you? For Cripessakes, look at you! You drink. You gamble. You are about as romantic as yesterday's laundry. Yeah, you're a real fuggin prize.
What do you think your wife/girlfriend/boyfriend (nod to any gay readers, sure, no problem) thinks of you?
The next time you go off on the "the raving bitch at home" keep Mr. Friendly's wise words in mind.
3.) Life is hard sometimes. I sympathize. Truly. We all do shit we are ashamed to admit. However, this here blog and others like it are probably NOT the best avenue to vent your spleen on IMPORTANT issues. That is why social workers and psychiatrists are needed so desperately. Two very good reasons not to vent here are: one, it is not as private as you think; two, you run an excellent chance of embarassing you, your kids, everyone that is important to you.
4.) A corollary to 3. When Joe is rolling, he is very funny. His blog displays a deep contempt for arseholes and I, for one, love him for it. However, if you can't entertain, man, it ain't worth blogging.
We now return to our normally scheduled moronica.
Carry on.
