Some
things don’t need to be repeated. And
some never need to be said at all. Quite
a few are read between the lines, or shown with a look in the eyes.
I
throw out a few off the top of my head and our recycling bin:
"He
needs to get a job."
"That
dog always barks when the owner is gone. Drives me crazy!"
"Better
clean the bathroom before they come."
("And after they leave," I add.)
"There
must be a way to stop the junk mail." (And deprive USPS of essential revenue.)
Gold’s
Gym junk mail: “Know your own strength”
(not that of the buff people around you, defined by Google: “…with fine
muscle tone.”)
Marie
Callender’s tempting mail: “Order plenty of desserts for all of your holiday
gatherings …” (I’m all for that!)
“Holiday
Lighting” flier left at front door last week: “The Holidays are here … Don’t wait." (Sorry – negative doesn't work for me here.)
DirecTV
ad: “For a limited time … lowest prices ever!
Bundle and Save!” (Yada yada ...)
A bookmark I picked up at the library: "READ" (I already do.)
"Government is sometimes wasteful." (No need to state the obvious.)
"We need a vacation." (Yes!!)
"Wish
we could be there with you!"
I
may add a couple, but really, needless to say, it goes …
"Oh, what’s the use!" (My rhetorical question 10/28.)
If
you detect any cynicism, please excuse me.
Where is it? You know it goes ...
