The story of my life….
This is a great story read in its entirety:
So today was the third day of classes. Woo freakin Hoo…I walk into my freshman government class sit down and begin talking to Jake. He begins discussing the political situation facing Americans today and I eagerly join the conversation. Then the girl behind us joins in which in this case I find interesting because normally that doesnt happen. But while Jake and I were discussing who we thought would eventually be running from each party on the final ballot we met at a dissagreement. Which in politics seems perfectly fine to me….then from out of no where we hear “well I think you are both wrong” from the girl behind us.
So we asked what she thought. And he response was with alll certainty “it will definitely be Hillary and Obama” After we explained it cant be both of them she said “well my dad works for the government and my whole family agrees with me”
WELL MY DAD WORKS FOR THE PHONE COMPANY AND YOU’RE AND IDIOT!
And thats when it all made sense. Its the parents. They are the influence their children see, and imitate. Its those who came before that lead the way for those to follow. And then with the events of this previous week and my new found revelation…my life came full circle.
(and I still hate stupid people)
So I had no reply to this girl because mine would have been mean. And Im trying a non mean life for a couple days. Jake however, replied with “My name is Indigo Montoya you killed my father, prepare to die”
And some how through my tears of laughter i realized…that was the perfect answer.
what a great day.
