Hypothetically, if you were to receive


Jun 16, 2019, 8:26 AM

a self-help book as a fathers day gift (or a birthday), would you be offended?

"When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car."

"I don't suffer from insanity. I enjoy every minute of it."

No but I'd probably use the tie I also always get to hang myself. :)

No, I'd get even.

Tell the "giver" that Chapter 2 said to help yourself you must get rid of things that annoy you, and they happen to be one of them.

My son, also a Clemson grad, got me two six-packs of IPA and a bottle of Scotch.

I’d recommend you read it...

Hypothetically. ;)

"I've played multiple sports and would bet any amount that I'm still more athletic than you at this present time...."


I’d need to know the name of said book before hypothesizing.***

Depends ... is it from a foreign source that may be looking to interfere with my personal-development ?

Oh man. It would depend on who the gifter was. Likely, I’d read it and tell the gifter about all their flaws as identified by the author, over and over and over....

No, I would not be offended. I need all the help available but, as a cranky senior citizen, I would reject any help that would change my life style. Now, there is one exception, if the self help is a gift of a substantial amount of American currency, I would probably forget my crankiness.

You could probably just tell them that you have already read the 31 chapters of Proverbs in the KJV Bible, and that pretty much covers it. Well, that is, if you have already read those chapters. Just saying.

Hypothetically.
