Fracas’ The Monday Melee for October 22, 2007
Todays Melee will focus on the topic of ‘habits’.
1. The Misanthtropic: Name something about humanity you absolutely hate.
Chewing with one’s mouth open. What’s up with that? Don’t you worry your food will fall out? It’s totally gross. Stop it.
2. The Meretricious: Expose something or someone that’s phony, fraudulent or bogus.
The idea that a person can’t help it… can’t help themselves. A habit might be tough to break, but it can be done.
3. The Malcontent: Name something you’re unhappy with.
I’m unhappy that some people I care about smoke. It’s not just a bad habit, it’s lethal. It stinks, it ruins your teeth, causes cancer and a whole host of other really bad things. No one wants bad things to happen to those they love. No one wants to watch someone they love suffer through tongue or throat cancer, lung cancer or any number of other really devastating and life threatening illnesses that are a result of smoking.
4. The Meritorious: Give someone credit for something and name it if you can.
I have to give credit to anyone who has ever had a problem with alcohol or drugs and gotten help. It’s the bravest and most loving thing a person can do for themselves and the people they love. Rehab isn’t a fun place. I admire anyone who has made the decision or agreed to go.
5. The Mirror: See something good about yourself and name it
I quite smoking (24 years ago) cold turkey. I was determined and just told myself I could do it. I did.
6. The Make-Believe: Name something you wish for.
Gel nails. I just never seem to make it a priority to go get them. I have a nail-biting habit which I have, from time to time, quit and then therefore had nice hands and nails that were my own. Right now though, some stressful things have me biting my nails again and it seems gel nails might be a good solution and method to stop it again.
Now it’s your turn.

This joke came to fracas courtesy of the much beloved fraccy sister who is flying off again to Oz.
A woman walked into the kitchen to find her husband stalking around with a fly swatter
“What are you doing?” She asked.
“Hunting Flies” He responded.
“Oh. ! Killing any?” She asked.
“Yep, 3 males, 2 Females,” he replied.
Intrigued, she asked. “How can you tell them apart?”
He responded…
“3 were on a beer can, 2 were on the phone!”
