Sometimes I want to drink till I pass out

I am not very emotional. I don't like cuddling. I don't do romantic. I like the truth. I like reality. Those people that sugar coat their lives with chocolate candies and roses, they make me want to puke.

Life is not sweet nor rosy.

Today, I took a drive. One of those drives that you take when you really don't have to go anywhere, but you just need "you" time and sadly the only place to get some freaking quiet is in your car. So I drove. And I ended up at the liquor store. I'm not an alcoholic or anything and frankly, I wouldn't be a good one. I don't like to yell or engage in confrontations. I don't like random sex with strangers. I don't enjoy forgetting hours or even days of my life. That's just not my style.

I'd be one shitty alcoholic.

I couldn't even be an alcoholic if I wanted to, so I admire all those that can be.

Somewhere along the line, we decided it would be a grand idea to have extended family come stay with us that were going through a hard time. Like I just said, I'm not emotional, but dagnabit, if I am not a sucker sometimes.

Years later, I am stuck sharing my land with nitwits.

What the hell is a nitwit? I think people use words alot of the time and don't even realize what they actually mean. I know I do it all the time and most likely come across as a complete...nitwit? Maybe... I searched Google and found that nitwit is an actually word. Who would of thought. It means a silly, stupid person.

I can deal with silly or stupid, but not both.

When I said nitwit, I meant lying, drunk thieves, so I have yet again come across nitwitical.

I sat here thinking about why people lie today and I understand some types of lies. Your age, your weight, how much you make, go ahead, lie your ass off, I could really care less.

But where do we cross the line? Most people tolerate those types of "white lies", but they are all lies aren't they? Who is declaring what lies are ok? Is there some sort of spreadsheet that states a tolerable lie verse a intolerable one? Why haven't I seen it? If not, how can we use such a general term as a "white lie?". And why white? Seems a little shady and a tad racist if you ask me.

I was curious about how the term "white lie" was coined so I turned to Wikipedia and was confronted with this massive lists of all different "types of lies" which lead me to this conclusion:

Wiki is all-knowing.

and

WTF?

Here they are:


Bold-faced lie
    A bold-faced (often also referred to as bare-faced or bald-faced, although all three have slightly different meanings) lie is one which is told when it is obvious to all concerned that it is a lie. For example, a child who has chocolate all around his mouth and denies that he has eaten any chocolate has told a bold-faced lie.

Lying by omission

Lie-to-children

Fabrication

White lie

Noble lie

Emergency lie

Perjury

Bluffing

Misleading/Dissembling

Exaggeration

Jocose lies

Contextual lies

Puffery

Lying in Trade

Lie by obselete signage

( stars to anyone that can define those without looking )


So, apparently, there are many types of lies, but who cares? If you lie, you are a liar. There it is.

So I live with liars. For the sake of argument, I'll crown them "Bold Face Liars".

Because of the obviousness of their lies I am going to coin a new term "Bold Face Nitwit liars". Is that ok? Do I need to submit something in writing for my new term to become official?

Regardless, that is who they are. What is most baffling is that most liars think they are good liars. But that is never the case. Those that think they can lie are usually the worst at it and currently, are the subject of my angst.

My angst has many angles. First are the lies. Then, there is this whole matter of betrayal.

Lies and betrayal usually go hand in hand anyhow, but I believe I have found a whole new level, at least in my own selfish world, because it has to do with me.

After the close call with the lies, I had to check the all-knowing Wikipedia just to make sure I used the correct "type" of betrayal. It seems as if there is no clear definition of betrayal available.

Talk about land of the free man, betrayal is whatever I damn want it to be. Nice. No one should have this kind of power.

For my example, betrayal will be defined as: when one person explains things in a way they have never have before, revealing personal flaws, insecurities and showing pure vulnerability and then the other person, henceforth known as the betrayer, ruins the moment, by displaying abnormal and, or bizarre behavior, such as a loud, echoing fart.

That's betrayal.

Who's to blame? The burrito at lunch or the nitwit that opened their mouth?

I blame the girl at the liquor store for having Absolut Vodka on sale.
