Sometimes it's fun just to play, to lighten up the mood and let yourself smile, laugh and enjoy the day. How about we share some of our favorite "one liners" or the one's that help you out but "get to you"...LOL
K.I.S.S.
Keep It Simple Stupid (or Silly)
I love this one, and I use it on a daily basis, more often more than not...and there are days, when I am making a mountain of a mouse turd that I replay it over and over in my head, K.I.S.S.
Okay, who's next??
Keep it Simple...
Gotta remind myself of this often. ;)

I'll never forget when I was in the middle of a "big deal" early in sobriety, I shared with Miss Katbird and I was struggling to do the right thing, I knew I had the right answer but others didn't see it and I asked her what to do and very simply she answered....
"Do you wanna be right or do you wanna be happy?"
Hmmm, I use this one at work and with teenagers A LOT, still to this day.
Or how about, "how important is it really?"

What's the difference between alcohol and alcoholics? I Can't Stop!
Patience, Understanding, Tolerance of Sickos
Steps To Promises: The fast track.
Stinkin' Thinkin' leads to Drinkin'
If I'm Out of My Mind, I'm in the Right Place.
If I don't look within, I'm looking without.
Shut Up, My serenity's speaking.

I knew the Kiss one. I can't think of a good one yet. I'll get back if something comes to me slow brain. But I have something maybe funny to tell you. A couple of wks. back I had to ask my first born what is bff mean. As I'd see you and Ms. Katbird refer to often. I enjoy your friendship.
So, she laughs at me and says Mom thats so people know that their not boyfriends, bf. They are best friends. You know this is the first web sit I'd ever chatted on. No instant messaging or anything like this. I didn't even no what a thread was.
Now people have explained ROTFLMAO & LMAO. So would somebody please tell me what YGM and IMO mean. I'm not part of this type of code generation.
Thank You

You've got mail and in my opinion or IMHO is in my humble opinion.
How about Sitting on the pity pot is a lonely job or Carry the message not the mess.

There's my BFF...I've missed you whilst you've been busy...
LOL, Chris....I didn't know what BFF meant either as Kathi would call me that, actually she wrote BBF the first time and she told me it meant Big, B*tchy Friend..LOL
Izzy said something on another post and I use this one but when it's used on me, I cringe at times...."this too shall pass"

My boss uses this one everyday and he's a normie....
It is what it is
It is what it is
My latest is, "It takes what it takes."
I ALSO make stuff up if I don't know the meaning as a GOOD alcoholic should, because I'm sure it's all about me in any event. So when I saw, YGM coming from across the pond, I just figured, "You Go, Mate."
:)
Of course, I realize now that everyone else COULD, in fact, be wrong.

One of my fav old timers used to repeatedly say over and over at meetings...
"If you're new, take the cotton out of your ears and put it in your mouth and learn to listen"....
I listen today......

How about don't drink or drug no matter what. Even if your A** falls off. VWgirl saved my but back a couple of months ago when she used that one. I've heard it in the rooms to. I miss her around here.
LOL Big Bit**Y friend. I've been called that, it's nothing compared to some other names. Nice though between not drinking and Graves disease I lost 15 lbs. Maybe I can borrow a chemically bleached thong from SKG. Maybe it plays a special song to. Have his new Disney character silk screened on the front. Now theres a whole clothing line market.

See how productive alcoholic minds can be? I've thought, produced, and fielded a full-length animated feature based on an Iris, and now we've developed an entire undergarments line! Hot DAMN, talk about 'case makin'!' LOL
I like, "If I am not part of the solution, there is no problem."

LMAO....
Now, that would be TMI, to much information...LOL
Yes, VWGirl is an inspiration to me, she's got what I want and I miss her too and I picture her out there in F2F land, chairing meetings, being of service.
Funny thing, Geri & I live in the same state so god willing, maybe someday I'll be able to go down South and meet her, F2F and share a meeting with her....
Another of my fav's was from ElimGarak......what others think of me is none of my business

How's about....
Sh*t or get off the pot

I was part of the solution to undergarment lines. I qualify for royalties. How about day spa packages to start with for me and all my friends. Wow "Easy Does It" I still want my royalties. I'm a Bi***y baby.
First things first....
I have to remember that I have to do the footwork, I have to take the action before I can expect the results.....

Us alcoholics need to stick together, or we will die. " UNITY "
Alcohol is not the answer ,it just makes you forget the question.

Now I'm getting a resentment about the creative staff of the underwear line! Afterall, it was MY image that started the whole thing. Everyone wants it to be about THEM. Dammit.
