Most of the time, I try not to be judgmental, even though it’s pretty hard for a smart-alecky gal like me. I’ve been called out more than once for my “cruel sense of humor,” and it’s true that I like to tease and poke fun.
However, when it comes to sharing these judgments in the public sphere, I err on the side of caution. I don’t publically tool on reality show stars for their vapidity or fat asses. And you won’t see me posting caustic remarks on deadlinehollywood.com when un-talented people find success.
But that doesn’t mean I’m not bitch-slapping them in my head. Because I am. Even though I attempt to rise above it. Even though I know that by judging others I am ultimately judging myself. Sigh.
So in an attempt to be less judgmental and more like Deepak Chopra — AND YET — to still allow for the inherent snarkiness that flows deeply through the very core of my being, I have come up with a plan. Like the ex-smoker who still delights in that once-a-year cigarette, I’ve pared my list of Things to Mock down to two key topics, which I hereby allow myself to judge publically and without restraint.
They are as follows:
- The state of Ohio
- Republicans
