Have you ever felt it necessary to tell a friend to wise up?
Here I'm referring to trying to do them a favor by giving them a diplomatic 'head up'; for instance;
It's not good to rest your elbows on the table.
It would be better if you took a shower now and then.
Don't you check your clothes for stains before you leave the house?
You really shouldn't chew with your mouth open.
Why do you persist in talking with your mouth full?
Could you please stop telling raunchy jokes when this kids or the women are around?
Could you not belch or fart and laugh about it in front of my kids?
Do you have to dig your earwax with your keys at the dinner table?
Do you think it's funny to put your cigarette out in your mashed potato scraps while my wife and I are still eating?
Of course, if you're a real pussy about this kind of stuff, you'll stifle and seethe silently. I used to do that. I developed an ulcer the size of a hamburger patty.
(Just kidding.)
