Relentlessly reasonable


My favorite people are relentlessly reasonable

Someone says get up at 3 am and drive until 10 pm
And this person says, why not two days and one night in a hotel
Because you won’t be worth a shit after you drive 19 straight hours

A stray gets the mange and a neighbor uses gasoline for ointment
And this person says, where did you get your vet license
From the Nazi School of Veterinary Medicine?

A can sits on the counter for days without being thrown away
And when this person comes to visit she says,
How much would it cost to get that tin can bronzed?

If you know someone relentlessly reasonable

Let them know how much you appreciate them
Take them out to dinner or something
But don’t pretend to forget your billfold, it won’t work
