Why should I give a shit?

There will come a day, when the world asks you:


Who are you? And why should I give a shit?


Sometimes, you won't even get past "who are you?" if first impressions are bad.

Sometimes, you won't get past "why should I give a shit?".

Hopefully, you'll think about what to do when that day comes. Hopefully you'll be prepared to tell the world why it should give a truck load of grade-A shit about you.

Some people don't wait for the world to ask them that question. They storm the stage and seize the day, and they tell the motherfucking world why it should give a motherfucking shit in a very Samuel L. Jackson manner.

Some people can never seem to decide and commit. They remain indecisive about which answer to choose, until the world gets bored, and the time to answer the question is over.

Some people readily answer the question with "You should not give a shit." Hell, as long as they're satisfied with what they have.

Some people know the answer, but are too lazy to take the stage and declare it. Obviously, they do not want to answer badly enough.

Some people know the answer, but are too afraid to speak it. Obviously, they do not want to answer badly enough.

Some people are great motivational speakers, but are not motivated enough to practice what they speak.

But the saddest of all:
For some people, that day may never come.
...Hey! You've got an internet connection. Must be pretty well off. I guess that's not you, is it?

So, when that day finally comes for you, what will be your answer?
