A Few Thoughts From Greg Behrendt

So, last night on Comedy Central was a stand-up special titled "Greg Behrendt Is Uncool." For those of you who don't know, Greg Behrendt wrote a popular book called "He's Just Not That Into You." While the book is designed for women, he discussed some main points that both sexes could benefit from. Here are some:

1) In life we will encounter assholes. We shouldn't waste time on them. They come in all forms. People who get upset over trivial things. People who are constantly negative. People who nit pick. Essentially people who hinder our happiness. Some we HAVE to deal with like bosses or co-workers or family members. But, the rest of 'em - we don't have to. Ignore them and they'll go away. Or at least get the hint.

2) Rock stars have a great life. Why can't we rock our day-to-day lives? Be as excited about the aspects of our day the way they are after they perform one of their hits flawlessly on stage. Slam that report down on our bosses desk and yell "Thank you! Good night!" While pyrotechnics go off.

3) We treat our rock stars with so much awe and appreciation. We make signs. We shout "I love you!" Women throw their panties up on stage. Imagine if we did that for the people in our lives that AREN'T assholes. The friends we have that are positive. Those who don't get upset over stupid trivial stuff. The people who don't talk behind our back. The people who look for ways to make us happy and keep us that way.

Some neat stuff, huh? I expect you to be making your sign for me soon. And prepare to toss those panties on my stage... unless you're a dude... then we have to talk.

Just some thing to think about, friend. Talk to you later.
