My Nose Is Brown


I'm sick and tired of brown nosing, sucking up, kissing ass, and whatever other name you can think to call the act of feigning enthusiasm. In high school I was the Queen of the Brown Nosers. I acted with such authenticity that my teachers actually believed I loved school. Now, as a young adult in the real world, my ass kissing has subsided. Of course it couldn't have come at a worse time. Apparently I wasted all my kisses on the wrong people. Then again, perhaps the real problem isn't me; but rather, the compelling need we feel to suck up in order to get ahead. Not saying we should have a world full of Debbie Downers, but all this overblown passion gets a bit nauseating. Some things are stupid and pointless. Deal with it. Sure I might think differently when people start kissing my ass, but until then, I'm done with the brown nosing business.
