It’s one of those things we’re all guilty of: assumption. Using what knowledge we have we assume that we know enough to go in to a situation and give our advice or opinion. However, assumption is probably more like fortune telling.

Take for instance an incident that happened not 20 minutes ago in my neighborhood. Some random guy, most likely from the house behind my neighbor, comes racing around the corner in his Explorer, parks half-assed in my neighbors driveway, flies out of it and begins to start pounding on their door.

After no one answers, he decides to go over to the other neighbor and beat on his door. This time that neighbor answers. The man accuses him of allowing his dog to bark all night. At this point the neighbor yells at the man letting him know that it’s not his dog that was barking and he can go shove a “boner up his ass.” After exchanging some other pleasantries, the man gets in his Explorer and hauls off at probably 50 mph through the neighborhood.

This is a prime example of why you shouldn’t assume as you may have a boner shoved up your ass. I’m just sayin’.
