Honesty

I'm going to admit something...I started writing this blog, got sidetracked looking at "honesty" memes and an hour later, here I am, restarting this entry.  

I'm really into honesty.  I'm very open and up-front with pretty much everything.  I hate when people try to involve me in drama, when people try to play games, when people are coy just for the hell of it.  

This is really the worst with two types of people: family and friends.

With family (and I'm including my closest of friends...or friend...here as well) I waste no time in insincere niceties.  I tell everyone the truth, whether they really want to hear it or not.  Now, I'm not a huge bitch about it, I'm just up-front and honest.

Example:
Mom: What do you think about my new orange sweater?
Me:  It looks like you're getting ready to go deer hunting.

Katie:  I'm never allowed to get the things I want.
Me: 1. How about getting a job.  2.  That's the biggest lie you've told all week.

Dad:  Why don't you have $5,000 in savings right now?
Me:  Because being an adult is hard and I have bills, yo.

There's so much more...here's a rant that I give my honest opinion on several times a month.  My aunt and uncle lock everything up like Fort freaking Knox every.time.they.go.in.or.out.of.something.  It drives me bat-fucking insane.  If it's 5:30 on a Tuesday and you're home, why the hell is your whole house locked up?  NO ONE IS GOING TO BREAK IN AND RAPE YOU.  AAANNNNDDDD if they do decide to break in, you have a giant fucking arsenal in your house...I think you'll be ok.   I can't explain how much this irks me...and I've told them on multiple occasions.  You know, if it's your house, whatever, that's your house.  If you're at my house or you're expecting company...why the hell?  Why the hell?

Some people get their panties in a wad over honesty, so you really have to ask with each individual person..........is honestly the best policy???
