Ever heard of: "Think before you speak"?

[palides2021]

I think this is what's called "being human." Nobody is perfect. I also have been in situations when I say something that I instantly regret, but it has happened less and less over the years. I have noticed, however, that people who tend to be extremely social or extroverted tend to be tactless, but I don't think they intentionally say things to hurt people. It's just that they have thick skins, so they can dish it out as well as take it in. My two bits.

As I've aged, I've drifted toward the 'say what you mean and mean what you say' way of thinking and often speak/type without thinking. I know I need to monitor more. I apologize if I've offended.

Oh, yes, My nan used to say it all the time.
