Sh*t People Say
Sh*t People Say. It's the new planking. Or something.
If you haven't heard about these videos, then you've clearly been playing too much Farmville. Or possibly having a life outside of the internet.
I think it all started with a video called Sh*t Girls Say which was hilarious and about 98% completely true. Since then, there have been many more videos including Sh*t Boys Say, Sh*t Gay Guys Say, Sh*t Gamers Say and even Shiz Mormons Say.
I have a Pinterest board of my favourites so far.
I searched on YouTube and couldn't find a decent Sh*t Bloggers Say. Which was strange because you'd think that we'd all jump on board for that one, right?
Which caused me to think up a really awesome idea.

Me: I'm thinking of doing a video on my blog called Stuff Jia Says. (I said stuff instead of sh*t because I was talking to my mother in law).
MIL: What would it be about?
Me: *blink* Stuff I say. Just stuff that I say all the time.
MIL: *sigh* . . . . I wish you wouldn't curse.
Me: You mean on the video? Cause then it would just be a five second long video of me saying, "I want a Pepsi" or something.
MIL: I mean in general.
Me: Don't worry, I'll put bleeps on the video or something whenever I curse.
MIL: You could just stop cursing altogether.
Me: We'll see. Depends if I can figure out how to insert bleeps on the video.

To be fair, I've been doing really good. I never curse in front of my family. Or at least Matt's family. My family doesn't care. Some of them curse more than I do. But in the house and around other people, I'm good. I know it's a bad habit and I should stop.
But cursing to me is a lot like smoking. See, back when I used to smoke, I didn't smoke because I was addicted to it or didn't know any better. I LIKED to smoke. I really, genuinely enjoyed it. But I quit because I knew it wasn't healthy, I wanted to live a long and happy life, and the sonsofbitches were milking my money stash. Cursing is a lot like that. I enjoy cursing. I can stop in certain situations like I used to do with smoking. The only real difference is that I don't need to pay five bucks per pack of swear words.
We'll see how it goes.
PS: This post was so not about cursing. It was about the video idea that completely got away from me.
