It's like, you know.

I love this YouTube clip from Taylor Mali. First of all, it's HYSTERICAL, and I also think it's very powerful, especially toward the end.

In case you can't open the page, my favorite part is goes like this:


"We've gotten to the point where we're the most aggressively inarticulate generation to come along since . . .  you know, a long time ago!

So I implore you, I entreat you, and I challenge you: To speak with conviction. 
To say what you believe in a manner that bespeaks the determination with which you believe it. Because contrary to the wisdom of the bumper sticker, it is not enough these days to simply QUESTION AUTHORITY. You gotta to speak with it, too."


I've decided to make tomorrow "Free Speech Friday." Wish me luck.
