I
Resign!
Yeah,
you heard right! I resign – from government that is. Well, perhaps I ought’a
rephrase that a bit. I ain’t in the government so I can’t literally resign from
something I ain’t part of to start with, but I can resign from talkin’ about it
or readin’ about it, an that’s exactly what I plan to do.
Of
course, I’m talkin’ about all that hateful poison bein’ puked out on Facebook
an’ Twitter. I never seen such a lot of venom spewed out by normally nice,
respectful people who expose themselves for what they really are. I have to say
it’s disheartening at the very least and sometimes quite sad. I still haven’t
figured out whether this deprecatory behavior is the result of assumed anonymity,
a crowd mentality, or just plain ignorance. Could be one or all those things,
but it don’t matter one way or the other. The point is, I don’t want to have
anythin’ to do with that sort o’ clap-trap.
So, I figure by deletin’ it on my facebook page I’ll accomplish a number
o’ things. Firstly, my page’ll be a lot cleaner an’ a lot more positive to look
at. An’ secondly, it’ll make my blog appear more boldly. Now I ain’t gonna
unfriend anybody. There’s too many other factors important to my friends an’
me. Naw, I just wanna wipe the trash off my page. That way I won’t have to look
at it every time I go on there.
But
before I do that, I’ll have to confess to one last swipe I took at Kelly
Leitch. But I know now what I have to do. I’ll have to abide by the advice I
gave to Jamie; that is to get myself a big brown paper bag like the ones we
used to get at Eaton’s. Then I can stick my head in it and cuss to my heart’s
content without startin’ a fight with someone or somethin’ I care about. At
least that’s how it seems to me from up here on the top shelf.
Just
sayin’.
