Even Bastards Get Lonely

So they always say that it's best to just be yourself. People will always like you better if you're an honest person. If you don't try to be someone you're not. So what if you're a irredeemable asshole? Should you just be yourself then, or in this case are you allowed a little leeway? I mean, if you're a piece of shit, then it's expected that you'll probably lie a bit. Probably even cheat and steal if the mood strikes. Nobody likes those people anyway, though. Even bastards get lonely sometimes. Shouldn't they be allowed a little bit of slack so they can find a friend? If you suck you won't have any friends, if you have friends maybe you'll not suck so much. So if you maybe lie about how much  you suck, you might make some friends, in which case you'll suck a little less. 

So if you're a total shitheel, but you would maybe like to be better, perhaps it's better to lie a little bit about yourself. Yanno, just so you can make a buddy or two. However this only works if you don't want to be a full time asshole. If you are gleeful about how shitty you are, you might as well be honest. 

Unless you're one of those people who confuse honesty with assholery. I don't think assholery is an actual word, at least it wasn't before I just used it. I like the way it sounds. It sounds literate, yet vulgar. Which is always awesome. Anyhow you know those people who always say they don't get along with people because folks can't take their "brutal honesty" or whatever they want to call it? Those people who just can't face the fact that they suck? "Brutal honesty" is asshole code for "tactless suckage." Decent people know that a little bit of discretion goes a long way. Not only might people take you seriously, they might actually think you've done them a favor. Unlike assholes, whom they'll just resent.

I'm not sure what brought that rant on but my Oklahoma Sooners are in the BCS title game and all is right with the world right now.

Be excellent.
