Don't judge a book by it's cover

 

Not all emo's are suicidal.

Not all black people steal cars.

W****s aren’t the only ones with STD's

Not all celebrities are 'perfect'

When someone smiles doesn't mean they're happy.

When he says he'll call he probably won't.

Just cos he dresses well doesn't mean he's gay.

That guy with his boxers showing doesn't make him gangster.

Just because i wear Black doesn't make me gothic.

Not all religious folk are going to damn you to hell.

Don't judge a book by it's cover,

Don't base a candy by it's outer case.

Don't make stupid assumptions.

Cos I guarantee, you wouldn't like what people thought of you.

You said it all right there in your last line
"Cos I guarantee, you wouldn't like what people thought of you." If only it was that easy to get the point across to others...I like how you chose your words within this very "in the face" concept...no give there..no wishy-washy meakness...strong statements and given with a great deal of respect as well for others..shows that you have an open mind while writing..(just saying as reguard to others feelings there) Bravo for you...very nice!!! Thank you for the RR :)

A nice little piece, I am prompted to wonder what made you pen this one. This piece I am sure will resent with many, not only for the subject but also because of the many pop culture references which make it approachable. So congratulations for engaging a wide audience, always something to be admired.

Personally I never judge on appearances, I prefer to wait until I hear what they have to say first. As the saying goes a man who keeps his mouth shut may be thought a fool, but once he opens his mouth he can remove all doubt.
