Try A Little Harder

I don’t know why I am so annoyed by people who try to be helpful. I’m not talking about those annoying people who think they know everything, I’m talking about those annoying people who genuinely have a suggestion for EVERYTHING.

“But what about this? What if we try this? How about we try it this way?” Always delivered with a smile, candy-coated goodness in every breath. The type of person who’s just starting out, who is not yet jaded by the harsh realities that even though it’s a good idea, I DON’T WANT TO DO IT simply because they are the one who suggested it.

Petty? Yes. Immature? Yes. Spiteful? Yes, yes, yes, but I look at it this way; if I crush any hope that I will ever listen to these suggestions, then maybe I won’t have to listen to them anymore. Sometimes a good idea is not worth the credit I have to give you later….

    Age and treachery will always overcome youth and (annoying) optimism.
