And The Random Comment Award Goes To...

"You're so pure, you crack me up!"

A co-worker said this to me today, as I was expressing frustration about something, but refusing to swear.

Um - thank you?

Why is it so funny to be pure? What that co-worker doesn't realize is that what comes out of our mouths is inside of us. Create in me a clean heart O' God.

I concur with Jenna!!

Hahaha, way to set an example!

I would take it as a compliment, too. :) It couldn't really be anything else, could it?

Aaron said...

Wow! At least it confirms that your values are noticed in the workplace. As the other commenters have said, good for you!

I once had a girl say to me, "Argh! You're so...so...sophisticated. That's not a compliment." I took it as one anyway. :)

Pu - hee hee - pur - hee hee hee - pure! Ya, definitely cracks me up:)

Okay, so this person doesn't have a firm grasp of the art of rhetoric (who does?). But at least she recognizes a difference! That will make more of an impact on her than you know.

next time, just slug the coworker really hard and say:
"So, what do you think of me now?"

and walk away. I'll bet they really laugh then ;-)

Your pureness is an inspiration more than you know. Everyone should strive to be more like you, Linds.
