912. What we mean is what we don't say... (92)

We say:  I don't suffer fools gladly.

We mean:  I like to express myself in this rather grand way to impress people.  It also tells them I'm terribly wise.

What is says about us:  I'm an intolerant pain in the ass.

Sorry Sue, I can only say that I'm also a pain in the ass!! This series is just my way of applying jump leads to people and hopefully making the smile, not to offend anyone...

There was no offence taken Caroline:)

I thought it hit the funny bone square on - and like many things said in jest it is really quite true.

Take care
