You've all heard of Post Secret, I'm sure.
It's a beautiful idea, and if any blog should be required reading for teens, it should. It's like Chicken Soup for the Jaded Soul.
Except jaded souls rarely indulge in chicken soup, I fear.
Rum-n-Coke for the Jaded Soul? Now you're talking.
Anyway, I had an idea that people could just send me their secrets, on a little fragment of something biodegradable.
I'd sprinkle secrets in my compost bin, along with the yard clippings and autumn leaves and dinner scraps.
I'd toss the secret scraps with the compost like it was a big, fuzzy salad.
And since no one would ever read the secrets, they'd all be true.
Every Last One.
Every Last One.
My secrets are non-biodegradable. They are contained within the leftover styrofoam boxes formerly used to keep the hot side hot and the cold side cold of McDLTs.
ReplyDeleteChicken Soup for the porn-deprived soul, you mean; Chicken Soup for the hidden-misogynist soul, you mean; or or! Chicken Soup for the boring-sick-twisted-freak-just-wanting-a-hellava-lotta-money-taking-a-cool-idea-and-editing-the-truth-of-secretdom-and-humanity-out-of-cyberspace soul, you might mean (but are too nice and well-mannered to say, ehem) . . .
ReplyDeletebut I'm not sure that's what I really think.
do you really have a compost heap? if so, where is it located? might explain the ants . . .
but you know, the sad truth is that he's probably a nice guy with a great idea--
ReplyDeletejust not too reflexive & unable to see his own patterns . . .
mmmmmmmmmmm--hot side/cold side of McDLTs; McD's single good idea . . .
ReplyDeleteI have lots of diapers...are they biodegradable? If they are, I could tell you lotsa secrets!
ReplyDeleteNope, I don't actually have a compost heap - we live in an apartment.
