Advice for life

Be courteous, kind and forgiving,
Be gentle and peaceful each day,
Be warm and human and grateful,
And have a good thing to say.

Be thoughtful and trustful and childlike,
Be witty and happy and wise,
Be honest and love all your neighbours,
Be obsequious, purple, and clairvoyant.

Be pompus, obese, and eat cactus,
Be dull, and boring, and omnipresent,
Criticize things you don't know about,
Be oblong and have your knees removed.

Be tasteless, rude, and offensive,
Live in a swamp and be three dimentional,
Put a live chicken in your underwear,
Get all excited and go to a yawning festival.

Go into a closet and suck eggs.

Not to be entirely dumb...

It is a euphamism, like "go boil you head!" or "just go and sit on a tack, why don't you!?"

Why would one want to suck eggs? I mean, there's a serious threat that it will crack in your mouth in which case you'll be sucking on raw egg. You will then get saminella (sp?) poisioning and die a painful death. Now no one really wants that do they?

In retrospect, perhaps we should have read you more Mother Goose and less Steve Martin when you were a little girl...

ok ok. So I still don't get it, but it appears no one else does either. So...I guess I'm ok with that.
