The Suck-O-Meter

Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.

This is a measure. A measure of dealing with people. I hear people often say you shouldn't judge others and I think that's a crock of steaming feces. It is a natural thing to pass a judgement on someone. Otherwise you wouldn't call anyone your friend because there would be no determination between them and others. The danger, I believe, is to condemn others to your judgment of them without allowing room for the possiblity that they may actually change or grow. Sooo...

THE SUCK-O-Meter.

The meter came about in an epiphany I had. I realized that everyone including myself sucks. We may not suck horribly but there is something about everyone that someone else won't like. The basis of the meter is that you find out in what ways and how much people suck, then you allow them to suck that much. The standard is based on your preference and what you are willing to deal with. Now, if the person should start to suck beyond their alloted realm, you give them distance in which to exercise their suckiness until it receeds to an acceptable level. If the level of suckiness does not receed or infact increases than you keep a space between you and said person. You must however, allow a chance for redemption (at some point). There is no need to seek out the person for this chance, let them come to you. On the other side you have to realize that you suck as well and try to keep your suckiness to acceptable levels. Should a person redeem themselves in your eyes, so be it. If not they just suck too much to deal with. I give this helpful tool to the world use as you will.
