The Spendiforous Story of Sad Sack (A Tale In 3 Acts)


Act 1 - One if by land , two if by slighter longer land route

The other day I was chatting up a nice your lady here in the Senior Sizzle universe and she was heard to remark "Hey 40 , what is it you're after anyway ?" After a probably too long explanation of why I don't care for the term friends with benefits , I said that's pretty much what I'm looking for . So far so good . Then I went on to say "honestly , at this point I don't even care about the with benefits part anymore , I just want a friend" . Mother of mercy , why did I just say that ?! Nothing like a little desperation to drive the ladies away huh ? Needless to say it didn't go down so smoove . After a pregnant pause (the only kind of pregnancy I hope to be involved in) she said ,

"Dude that makes you sound like a total sad sack ."

Kudos for dredging up an old chestnut like sad sack , but man that's a slap in the sack (and not the good kind) . I can't blame her , that's pretty pathetic . Sometimes I wish I could follow my own advice - honesty is a great policy , but keeping your god damn mouth shut can work even better . Tales of weal and woe rarely get the ladies ready to go as my grandpappy used to say . And if a girl was turned on by your loneliness you should probably run far away from her .

Act 2 - Do not go gentle into that good humor truck

And that was just the warning shot ! Next up , I'm at work , heading down to the gym over my lunch break , when I see a very fetching lass wearing an ROH wrestling t-shirt . I was gobsmacked , you could have knocked me over with a light feather with your off-hand . The chances of seeing anyone wearing an ROH shirt are sliiiiiiiiiiiim , and the chances of seeing a fetching lass wearing ? A statistical impossibility ! I had to go talk to her - this was a once in a lifetime opportunity .

And that is a big deal for me , I'm not the kind of dude who just goes up to women (or anyone) and talks to them - with words no less ! But I did it boys and girls , I did the shit out of it . bad news , she has a boyfriend . Even worse news , it was his shirt - she didn't even know what ROH was . Hopes ? Deleted . Dreams ? File not found . It was a crushing defeat on par with the battle of Agincourt . Morale was low .

But things were about to turn around

Act 3 - The Lion, the Witch, and the IKEA Aspelund Underbed Storage Box

Why you ask ? How you query ? Because I said so ! According to a car commercial I saw once adversity does not crush us , it brings out the best in us . And if you can't trust a car commercial then there's no hope for any of us . Setbacks ? Ha ! Reversals of fortune ? Pishaw ! I say opportunities ! I will not bow my head , I will face the future with a proud upturned jaw , majestic hard nipples , and taut stalwart buttocks . Look out world , 40deuce is coming to get you ! Lock up what you still want to own , and take a last lick of your ice cream cone ! Because as they say , whatever doesn't kill you simple makes you , stranger .

Putting first by putting employees first, immediately after prioritizing fiscal responsibilities and leveraging profitability towards exceeding by empowering our employees to put (and themselves) first, in a diverse and respectful environment of only those that come first, first.
