Signs Along the Way (updated)

10/15/26

Signs along the way to know you’re f*cked—

signs along the way of life.

When the people at the grocery store greet you

and call you sir,

you’re f*cked.

When you have a favorite seat

at a favorite coffee shop,

you’re f*cked.

When you go there enough

for the people who work there

to know what you order

before you open your mouth,

you’re f*cked.

When it makes you happy

that they know your regular order,

you’re f*cked.

When it makes you frustrated

that you never feel like you have the opportunity

to try anything different,

you’re f*cked.

When you feel anxiety

because you’ve gone to a different coffee shop

and they don’t know what you want to drink,

you’re f*cked.

In general—

you’re f*cked.

Read it. Don't read it. I don't really care anymore.
