The Daily Bitch*: "In general, I am either too old to put up with this shit,

[niyad]

or too tired to put up with this shit, or too sober to put up with this shit, or just plain not in the mood to put up with this shit."

*Both a noun, and a verb, depending on usage.

[ZDU]

1. Hear, hear!

[niyad]

2. Thank you!

[Dem2theMax]

3. Amen.

And I'm not religious.

[niyad]

4. Sometimes that is the most appropriate response.

[Just Jerome]

5. I was

raised by wolves. I can certainly relate to being a bitch. Can even be one myself when needed.

[niyad]

12. That is my resting state!

[justaprogressive]

6. George Carlin!

"ah, that's okay man. (laughter) Let's let that go, man. I got my Grammy. I can let my hair hang down
now, shit. (laughter) Ha! So! Now the word shit is okay for the man.

At work you can say it like crazy. Mostly figuratively, Get that shit out of here, will ya? I don't want
to see that shit anymore. I can't cut that shit, buddy. I've had that shit up to here. I think you're full
of shit myself. (laughter) He don't know shit from Shinola. (laughter) you know that? (laughter)

Always wondered how the Shinola people feel about that (laughter) Hi, I'm the new man from
Shinola. (laughter) Hi, how are ya? Nice to see ya. (laughter) How are ya? (laughter) Boy, I don't
know whether to shit or wind my watch. (laughter) Guess, I'll shit on my watch. (laughter)

Oh, the shit is going to hit de fan. (laughter) Built like a brick shit-house. (laughter) Up, he's up
shit's creek. (laughter) He's had it. (laughter) He hit me, I'm sorry. (laughter) Hot shit, holy shit,
tough shit, eat shit, (laughter) shit-eating grin. Uh, whoever thought of that was ill. (murmur
laughter) He had a shit-eating grin! He had a what? (laughter) Shit on a stick. (laughter) Shit in a
handbag. I always like that. He ain't worth shit in a handbag. (laughter) Shitty. He acted real shitty.
(laughter) You know what I mean? (laughter) I got the money back, but a real shitty attitude. Heh,
he had a shit-fit. (laughter) Wow! Shit-fit. Whew! Glad I wasn't there. (murmur, laughter) All the
animals -- Bull shit, horse shit, cow shit, rat shit, bat shit. (laughter)

First time I heard bat shit, I really came apart. A guy in Oklahoma, Boggs, said it, man. Aw! Bat
shit. (laughter) Vera reminded me of that last night, ah (murmur). Snake shit, slicker than owl shit.
(laughter) Get your shit together. Shit or get off the pot. (laughter) I got a shit-load full of them.
(laughter) I got a shit-pot full, all right. Shit-head, shit-heel, shit in your heart, shit for brains,
(laughter) shit-face, heh (laughter) I always try to think how that could have originated; the first guy
that said that. Somebody got drunk and fell in some shit, you know. (laughter) Hey, I'm shit-face.

[niyad]

11. Thank you. LOVE George Carlin!

[3catwoman3]

30. When I was in nursing school way back in the early 1970s, a med student friend of mine...

...used to pronounce "shit-faced" as if he had a French accent - "shi-fahzd." It sounded more sophisticated.

[niyad]

32. I may steal that!

[yorkster]

40. I heard that in my Boston days.

The t was silent. He was sooo "shifahst".
Thanks for the "lahff". The news is awful
today ...on several fronts, but the news from Corp. for Public Broadcasting is really sad.

[3catwoman3]

41. This guy was from the Boston area.

My first name is Martha, which he pronounced "Maah-ther."

[yorkster]

42. Ah hah. A Boston thing. Wonder if he ever

said I hosey, meaning I have dibs on.
When my parents took us somewhere, one of would always " hosey" the wayback or a window. Spelling may vary, lol. I don't think it existed, except in greatah Bawstin. (Not Bahstin - that's how they say it in Chicahgo.)

[flashman13]

34. But do you know what Shinola is?

[MiHale]

36. Shoe polish company name...now a Detroit watch company name.

Not knowing shit from Shinola is a stinky proposition.

[flashman13]

37. Yes indeed it is.

[SomedayKindaLove]

35. Now that's some funny shit

[Nigrum Cattus]

7. Agreed

I'm good with math but not so good with grammar, so
thanks for the asterisk*

[niyad]

9. You are most welcome.

[surfered]

8. Know the feeling

[Codifer]

10. I just call it

heartbroken.

[niyad]

13. Understandable.

[Evolve Dammit]

14. All valid. I'm too fucking disgusted and take it personally as family fought fascism and evil since Civil War. F'em all

[niyad]

15. Religious persecution (see my avatar) as well.

[Evolve Dammit]

16. Perfect. From a woman who knew it all.

[Luciferous]

17. I love it!

[WestMichRad]

18. All of the above!

[Silver Gaia]

19. YES. I feel tbe same.

Every damn day.

[malthaussen]

20. Yeah, but shit happens. n/t

[love_katz]

21. Right on, Sister!

I'm right there with you.

P.S. is he dead yet?

[niyad]

25. Sadly, no.

[Warpy]

22. It's why I turned broadcast "news" off over 20 years ago

and why I read very little in print, at least what passes for news in the US. It's shit. It's lies, omissions, half truths, innuendo, and the spectacle of a bunch of people whose only proper place is in cages in a zoo, hurling feces at their keepers. No thanks, I am done.

If you enjoy the specitacle of howler monkeys in power broker attire hooting inanities at cameras, knock yourselves out. Just be aware that the only veracity you'll find are the weather report, which has a chance of being right, and the sportsball scores, kept Ohonest by bookies nationwide.

Otherr than that, it's not even infotainment any more, it's just theater for the masses. Know this and trreat it as such and you'll find your life is a lot saner.

[niyad]

27. Not having a tv, and not being on social media helps with my sanity,

what little is left after all the insanity this millenium.

[LoisB]

23. Amen. All of them.

[LoisB]

24. Thank you for bringing back "The Daily Bitch*".

[niyad]

26. You are most welcome. I had been thinking about it, glad I did.

[multigraincracker]

28. Country has turned into a soap opera.

I have to turn it off.

[niyad]

29. Soap operas were at least entertaining, and many covered important

social issues. And they were not a weapon in destroying our country.

[George McGovern]

31. ALL-THE-ABOVE niyad AND MORE IN MY HEAD SOMEWHERE. Thank You!!!!!

[niyad]

33. You are most welcome.

[LuvLoogie]

38. I walk around skeptically. I have little faith left in civil society.

I wonder what optimism I can show, what cheerful demeanor. I see people acting hatefully and cheering hateful actions in the name of god and country.

The core malevolence isn't new. So casually they wreck and abuse.

[Magoo48]

39. Yup, me too.

[bagimin]

43. I'm 77

I hate the thought of dying...depressed.
