People I applaud in life
 
I applaud... and I'm talking that mental nod of respect kind of applause, not the kind from that guy who walks around clapping in public while throat-laughing out loud like a drooling psych ward escapee off his meds.


I applaud people who:
- May have or have had a drinking problem, but through their own force of will have come to terms with it such that they can actually have a drink or two and leave it at that. They not only know when they've had enough but realize they DO have the willpower to stop and still have a good time rather than keep telling themselves they have no control over it. (thus ensuring they make it home alive, and without killing anyone else)

- don't litter. Here's to all those who realize the whole world isn't their own personal toilet.

- don't interrupt others. There are some people who are seriously in love with the sound of their own voice and/or suffer from ADD to the extent they can't let anyone else finish a sentence. Pretty much people who know when to shut up and listen when someone else is talking and wait their turn before chiming in deserve a standing ovation. Here's to you.

- do what they say they're going to do. "I'll call you tomorrow at 6 pm"... well, DO IT. "I'll have your order ready by Friday".... well, DO IT. Don't make me wonder midway through the next week why I haven't heard from you. People who keep their word (or call if they can't) get huge applause from me.

- people who, even when plastered beyond reason at 3 am, have at least one working braincell with sense enough to NOT DRINK AND FUCKING DRIVE.


So who do you applaud?

when i still used to drink and drive, not at 3 am but at 5-6 am, i applauded myself that i could still do it :1orglaugh

I only do 3 out of 5. But 1 doesn't apply to me.

Who do I applaud? Responsible people. Non-sarcastic and selfless ones, those who help others. People that have skills that I don't.

I meet all four requirements and I respect the same kind of people.

BJ 03-01-2011 04:20 AM

people who have the respect to turn their phones off over dinner.

I applaud people that never thought of applauding somebody ...

I don't liter or drink and drive. Hardly even drink.

I also close the door behind me when I walk into an establishment, unlike others who apparently were born in a fucking barn.

I applaud ingenuity, sticking up for the little guy, hanging in there and loyalty.

And a dose of anti-materialism

PR_Glen 03-01-2011 11:15 AM

with you on most of yours CD. I used to believe the same about people with drinking problems but then in my travels I have run into people who only have 1 or 2 drinks and they turn into a different person, not in a good way.. so for some it is not possible to keep things under control in moderation.

Addiction is an enigma...
