Last night I conducted a VERY formal and scientific study in which I texted approximately 20 people the question, "On a scale from 1-10 with 1 being an adorable puppy and 10 being a Tourette's-inflicted Steven Hawking-Hitler mashup, how easy am I to get along with?" The average response was 3. So I guess that's what? A cute pitbull? Pitbull himself? I'm asking cause I don't know.
The point is that I think I'm a pretty chill person to get along with. I don't really fight with people. I don't give a single crap what you do with your life as long as you're not being a jerk to someone else.
I like taking jokes too far, making up ridiculously far out what-if situations, and Costa Vida. I like learning, reading, Grey's Anatomy, and telling narrative stories that are exaggerated. I feel like if we can agree on at least one of these things, we can be friends.
So, people. GET OVER YOURSELVES. Stop taking everything so seriously. Stop getting angry about things you can't control. Stop freaking out about other people's actions when they don't concern or affect you. Just be friends with people. It'll be okay, guys.
This is my soapbox for this evening.
Also, here is my favorite facebook status of today, courtesy of Cat Gardner:
When someone asks you "what would Jesus do?" remind them that freaking out and flipping tables is a viable option.
That is all.
