Say It Straight

 

Said the dolphin to the porpoise

Well I am truly lost

 

I’ve been cruising up and down all day

And got my wires all crossed

 

Said the sparrow to the eagle

I am very unimpressed

 

You call it sorting through my feathers

I call it getting me undressed

 

Said the virgin to the w***e

When should I let go?

 

Not until you’re ready dear

But by then you will surely know

I was raised by a mother that oft quoted if you cant say something nice don't sat anything at all...
then I dated a girl of whom could not... not say what she thought regardless of the consequences:/ I vividly remember squirming when she would interject in casual conversations her brutal honesty for fear of the reactions:( somewhere in those two is a right way. I know I am guilty of the gentlemen's genocide of not saying things when I should of having been programed not to... I am not like that anymore i think i'm at a pretty good medium these days I always answer truthfully but sometimes I dont always answer LOL. but heaven forbid someone ask me for my opinion oft times they dont like the answer LOL tis a good experiment Nev much wretchedness could in fact be avoided if we practice more of that

Cheers back to you and you are welcome my friend.
Say it straight Neville, honesty may be the best policy, but it usually gets you in hot water. The world desperately needs a sense of humour ... something it seems to have lost a long time ago ... just about the time the Left decided to go pro PC ... now anything you say will be misconstrued and re-written to give it their own spin.
The Liberal CMO of Canada is Asian ... born in Hong Kong and following the data from the Chinese as given to the WHO has been all over the map on how to deal with the virus.
A Conservative MP asked basically are you for China or Canada, which of course became a "racist" comment. Hopefully he will not apologize ... that's what we have Trudeau for.

Good bit here Nev. I enjoyed it.

Well as you know, i was always brought up to call a plastic mould handled, wooden shafted, metal face digging implement a shovel and have never had an unresolved issue with walking the linguistic line in anything but a forward facing meander with only the very ocassional inappropriate misdirection, which so infrequently results in recovering the same plot off ground that has so recently been dug over by my spade. Hey, how did I end up back at the beginning, and who nicked my shovel?

Straight talk coupled with a smile would make this world a better place; say what you mean; not what you think someone wants you to say. That is my one simple motto.
