Challenging the Status Quo: Why 10 Popular Quotes Aren’t Always Right"

In this article we are going to discuss quotes you have heard your whole life and a different perspective on each.

But first allow me to tell you a funny story and why it got me thinking about the things people say and why? I promise it will only take a moment and it is pretty cute.

I was telling my daughter about the hilarious time we were at Walmart and I used her as an excuse to get away from someone I didn't want to speak too.

I had actually had enough of Wal-mart, the crowd, the crazy shit ppl do cause they think Wal-mart is where anyone can go looking crazy as hell and do random dumb shit. The tweakers coming in day 9 on the shit, high stepping, sunglasses on, paranoia written all over their face, acting like they dodging the warden of geek central station, but that is entirely another story for another time. Wal-mart racks my nerves always has. You get my drift?

My point is I had used her for an excuse that we had to leave to get away from a guy I went out with a few times who had professed his love for me like 2nd and last date. Looking so sad he was asking why I hadn't called, I told him that we had to go that she had me a nervous wreck in there and I was late, or something to that affect and quickly walked away.

As we were walking out. I look at my sweet lil 5 yr old firecracker, and say "Sorry about that babygirl, I wasn't trying to throw you under the bus back there. It not your fault I just didn't want to talk to him."
