I have been using this cup (it was in a box of things given to me and B when we were thrown to the streets) that say “world’s greatest dad”. Never thought twice about it. It served its function, held my coffee well.
I haven’t celebrated holidays in decades. This morning I walked over to the sink and seen what it had said for what had consciously been the first time.
My machete (for yard work of course, had been cleaned sharpened in the kitchen) was sitting next to it. I chopped the thermos to smithereens. It was cathartic.
I didn’t feel angry. I didn’t feel anything really. It just wasn’t true so I remedied the statement. And then I smiled, f*cking coward.
