Positivity

First, I want to share a link to an article I read yesterday that I really enjoyed. It's about ginormous boobs, if that increases your odds of clicking and reading.

In other news, lately my boss has been making comments about how negative I am. Which has me thinking... am I a negative person? Maybe a bit, but usually I'm just being a goofball, not actively trying to be negative. Honestly I feel like he's a negative person - kind of a hard-ass who likes to riff on people - and when I'm around him it brings it out of me. But every time he makes one of those comments, it really bothers me, and the whole dynamic is definitely putting a strain on our relationship.

Is it me, or is it really fucking weird to use the word "relationship" when talking about one's boss? I mean, I get that "relationship" is just the word for the interactions between two people, but since it's most often used to describe intimate interactions, it feels funny.

I AM WEIRD OKAY

AND SENSITIVE ABOUT WORDS

OH GOD

CAPS LOCK

Um. Hmm. So! I should tell a positive story today!

Two atoms are walking down the street one day, and one of them says to the other:

"Hey, wait up a second. I think I lost an electron."

The first atom replied, "Are you sure?"

The second atom exclaimed, "Yes, I'm positive!"

....Forgive me, Internet.

  1. Negativity is an interesting beast. In some situations it can be really funny. Other times it can be a complete drain. There's nothing wrong with being positive, but always being positive can be really annoying. It seems like a balance issue.

    One of my really good friends back home is typically a negative person. He puts a funny spin on it most of the time, but it can be draining to be around a constantly negative person.

  2. You posted a positive article; does that count? Seriously, I enjoyed that one immensely. Especially the bit about empire waists and evil button-down (up?) shirts. Yes.
