    But spontaneous dishonesty is even more offensive, especially when it’s a character trait. Only 66 days until January 20th.

    Wether spontaneity or not, honesty is the best policy, to keep with self integrity, values and character!

    Honesty that offends is almost always spontaneously rejected.

    …honestly, honesty can be skewed with good intent…

    …‘cuz how ya put it can mean as much as how ya’ say it…

    …cuz certain responses can always be expected with certain spontaneous statements…

    …your butt looks as wide as a bus in that dress…

    …does it look actually wide as a bus?…

    …no…

    …so is that honesty?…

    …I like the way you look in that dress…

    …(I like big butts and I can not lie)…

    …sort of doesn’t answer the question…

    …left unsaid…

    …yes, your butt looks big…

    ..which begs to differ…

    …is it an honest question?…

    …is it a trap?…

    …is your respected spontaneous response supposed to be given honestly? …

    …of course it is…

    …but, I’ve found, my god woman take it off before I puke, will get it’s own spontaneous honest reply in return…

    I count 59 different American sandwiches on the Blog. Is this an exhaustive list? It sure seems like it. It exhausted me.

    All true but sometimes an active mental editor is s good thing. E. g. “What did you do to your hair?”

    Which one are you?

    Never liked those which one are you, put yourself in a box, choose a side crap. I happen to love all of them for different reasons. I am an equal opportunity lover.

    What a splendidly crazy-quilt non sequitur! How colorful we can become when first we practice to be spontaneous. —Come again?

    They do say “honesty is the best policy,” and this is generally true, except when it isn’t. No matter. It’s a concept that is valued, and that covers an exponential amplitude of failures and/or exceptions….

    You were honest with the Gocomics syndicate. That’s why they got scared and didn’t delete you.
