When Does It Stop?
Ever had someone come to you with stories of what “everyone” is saying? After a time you begin to clue in and you might ask, “who exactly is ‘everyone?'” Usually it comes down to a couple, maybe even just one other person … most likely THE person telling you?? Ever had someone say something like “you Canadians always (insert some obscure observation this person has heard about once when he was drunk).” Ever notice how people tend to make grand sweeping statements like this? Ever been accused of something you didn’t do because well, guilt by association and people wanted someone to pay for what had happened?
