Are you the type of person who has sass and a big….problem with your “sassiness?” Are you the type of person who responds to almost everything with a sassy remark and can’t help yourself because that is literally just a part of who you are? Well, I can relate. Here are five problems that sassy people have:
- People don't know when you are joking.
- You’re sitting in class and your professor asks you for your opinion on a topic you feel really strongly about. They’ll ask you the question and you start flapping your lips like there is no tomorrow. You talk and talk and talk and soon enough, you find yourself throwing mad shade at celebrity figures, people you know and the issue itself. You are stared at by everyone in class and after you leave, you think back and regret about 75 percent of things you said.
- You struggle with having a filter when you speak.
- So, you’re sitting with your friend and make a remark. The person next to you looks over with the type of look one would have if you had just stepped on a dog’s paw. Nervously, you look at that person and say: “No, no, that was joking. This is how we talk to each other.” The person then looks away and carries on and you feel guilty, even though you didn’t mean to offend anyone.
- People will think you are the meanest person in the world.
- With people not knowing when you are joking, they’ll think you are the meanest person they have ever met. You then go back to your room and cry….just kidding. But you do feel bad because you won’t be able to make up first impressions. Next time you see the person, you frantically try to get the sass out of your system so they see that you actually aren’t an asshole, it’s all joking matters.
- You can give sass but can’t be sassy back.
- Have you ever had that one other sassy friend that puts you back in your place and you don’t have anything to say? You then feel extremely defeated and proceed to go back to your room and cry. Just kidding, you don’t. But you do lay in bed and think of all the things you could have said and immediately get mad at yourself for not letting your inner sass come out earlier.
- Once you start, you can’t stop.
- You don’t become sassy, sassiness becomes a part of you. Once you get into the rhythm of constantly being sarcastic and find those friends that are also sassy, you find yourself being sassy to everyone….all the time. You try really hard to not be sassy and try to maintain a professional persona most of the time, but sometimes you can’t help yourself; it just comes out, kind of like Trump’s commentary on the news.
To my sassy pals out there, keep on being sassy. Keep doing you and remember that haters gon’ hate.
