The ‘yes or no’ game.
You can ask me anything and I’ll answer honestly, but only with yes and no.
I hope this doesn’t mean…
…that you won’t be in my life anymore.
Because I’ve grown pretty damn fond of having you there.

I can’t, for the life of me, understand why people are so mean to each other. How do we change the world, you wonder? Stop being assholes to each other. Be nice. It is not difficult to be a good person. The internet does not exist in order to make it easier to make people feel terrible. I’m honestly terrified to raise my future kids in a world that seems to make it so easy to tear them down and make them feel like shit. You guys, can we please be nice to each other? It’s so simple.
This film needs to be seen, by everyone. I don’t know why there is an R Rating, but I can think of millions of people under the age of 17 who need to see this, and I’m sure after watching the trailer, y’all will agree. CLICK HERE to sign the petition so this film can be seen by everyone.
Kristin Says:
We tell this to students all over the country: You do not have to devote your life to volunteer service and activist marches to make a change. While those are noble efforts, and it is awesome if you choose to take that form of action, the action that we can all take is to be kind to others.
Speak up when you see things happening to others that are hurtful. Talk about the way you feel in a way that leads to productive conversation, and not by lashing out with hurtful words. If every person in the world made the decision to be kind to others, this movie would never need to see the light of day.
Since we are not quite there, please do see this movie, and please do take action to help this movie get a rating so that those in middle school and in high school can see it. Don’t just ‘like’ this or ‘reblog’ it… okay? Do those things, share with your friends, because spreading awareness is crucial, but then take the next step and help move this movie to all of the people who need to see it. Then take another step and remember, every day, that we are all human beings and we all deserve respect and kindness.

Honesty Hour. No questions are deleted. Nothing is off limits. Ask me anything. →
And by hour, I mean day because there’s no way I’m getting any, anyway. :)
This, as well as when you hand them a twenty-dollar bill and you close your wallet and they ask, “Out of twenty?” No, out of twenty-five, I just didn’t give you the five. Oh, you’re right, out of fifteen- keep the change for being such a /stellar/ employee.
As a cashier, I don’t ask this, but I can tell you why the fuck I would. People will get all the way through paying and then say, oh and I have the change. That is fucking stupid. I already counted out your change and now you’ll make me do it again? Just so you get a nickel instead of 3 pennies. Okay. And you don’t know how many people come through and just stand there and watch you and then when you’re taking their money (after the sale has gone through) say, oh and I have water under my cart. Or I wanted this pack of gum.
Cashiers aren’t stupid. We just know people are stupid.
I second this. I DO say “out of…” whatever the customer gives me to confirm, and I couldn’t tell you how many times the customer will say “Oh, I thought I gave you a ten instead of a twenty.” Going up to the counter and paying for something is such a mindless activity that customers AND cashiers alike are bound to make silly mistakes. It’s such a pain in the ass when you count back change and then the customer decides they want to give you the 93 cents, or you’ve swiped their card and THEN they decide they want one more thing (and I work in fast food, not retail…) Personally, I don’t think anyone has the right to criticize those who work in customer service until they’ve been there themselves. It’s not easy, people are rude, and people are stupider than you may think. So that’s why we ask stupid questions.
