Pi**ed

No, I am not pissed, just a way of catching the reader's eye for a change. I teach English in a local high school and I am constantly trying to "teach" students to begin their writing in new, profound, mind-blowing ways. Start with a quote or catch phrase, or with the word pissed.

I do not encourage the word pissed. My son told my parents on Sunday that he had to be careful because if he did not watch it, he may piss them off.

That was interesting.

I, after laughing for at least ten minutes and spitting out the piece of pizza that I was consuming, asked where on earth he had heard that and he said from me. Hum, did I really say that to him?
What a loss. I should not say things like that to my children. To my hubby? I know that it is really okay to say to my friends Matt Pitts and Jason Lack. I actually know for a fact that I have said it to them in the last say, 10 days or so. Jason, you know why...pie whole incident and all...
Matt, I can't even remember the reason, there are so many!

I do know that I DON'T say it to Julie, my best bud in the whole wide world, or at least I don't direct it at her, we probably say it A LOT! But, we just don't use it at each other, which is good I can say. Julie, you don't PISS ME OFF! Ha, I said it and I can't direct it at her, that is good. YADDA, YADDA, YADDA...

I digress...
