With friends like these, who needs anemones?

I'd like to talk about things being corny, for a second. I don't belive in it. I'll moan at a bad line in a movie just as much as the next guy, but I don't believe people can be corny in real life, you can't be cliche. When you're giving advice, and you say, "aw, this may sound corny, but" because it sounds like something your parents would say, that's a good thing.

Things become cliched because they're overused, and guess what: advice that's given out so much that it just sounds like rhetoric is probably some of the best advice around. We're talking about the creme de la creme here, the tidbits that have survived the test of time to become the phrases that seemed relevant the first time, but now just seem retarded.

The next time I hear something like that, I'm going to pretend like I've never heard before, and that's when I'm going to realize what good advice really is.

I'd also like to share my new slogan. You're breathing, you're eating; fucking smile.

I think it's poetic. Give a beret and some bongos, we'll have a whole new movement on our hands.
