Move the Fuck On



Annoying little fuckIf you have a problem with someone and you really don’t want to read another update of theirs, quit bitching about them and move the fuck on.

If you think someone has less business acumen than you do and you’re sick of seeing them get all the good gigs, stop worrying about them – worry about yourself more, and move the fuck on.

If you think someone’s social media advice is akin to kindergarten levels of knowledge, stop hanging around the playground and move the fuck on.

If you keep seeing the bad and you don’t think you’ll ever see that improve, stop getting dragged down and move the fuck on.

We can all bitch and moan. Some of us do it better than others. Some of us do it long after the fact of the matter has gone. But here’s the thing – there is absolutely no point in poisoning ourselves by letting the same people get under our skin. That benefits no-one.

So.

If you’re truly fed up of that one person or same group of people, yet you continuously share examples of them and where they’ve gone wrong – again – there’s probably only one thing left that you should do instead.

Move. The. Fuck. On.

Ha ha ha... did you write this to yourself?  Just Kidding!  I have actually shut out some of the folks I once looked up to because I have moved on, and grown, and I realize they're not as sma-a-a-t as I once thought they were.

G'Day Danny,

In more graceful--and literate-- times Norman Mailer spelt it "fug".

If you don't know who Norman Mailer is........Fug!

And in the spirit of great American literature, shouldn't 'punk" be spelled "pfunk?"  Have you noticed that a lot of bloggers spell "fug" as  "freak?"

This timid little Aussie curmudgeon--check spelling in your Pfunk and Wagnalls__is like the people of Hoboken: feeling all at sea. What a disrespectful way to treat the Great Sinatra's home town. Jersey Boys indeed!

Is this what Marcus means by "establishing you voice?" Danny B and Erika N: the only bloggers who spell fug correctly. You win free tickets to "Midnight In Paris." Ernest and F. Scott and the rest are waiting. They may have been unable to spell "fug" but they could certainly demonstrate it!

Now you can write a blog about how one tiny misspelling can create a a torrent of illiterate rambling.

Ah words!

Fun aren't they/

Best Wishes

Leon

@Danny Brown @Leon I'm soooooo excited. I've written the Ultimate Blog Commrnt: not even Danny Brown can understand it!  Wow!

I myself couldn't understand it. But that's OK. I wrote it. I see lots of blog comments that the writers can't possibly understand.

And in the true spirit of blog community Danny, I value you honesty greatly.

Let's see, who can I tell about this fuggin good fortune..........

Whackp the chook!

I would but its waaaay too much fun to bitch and rant and txt screen grabs to friends. And what would I do with all that extra time? So I'm not going to listen to you. This once.
