Have you ever made a mistake?
Yet were too proud to admit it?

Stay the course, and all that happy bullshit...

8. Welllll
yeah, the mods think you did. They prefer that one send alerts instead of starting threads about freepers. :shrug:

No biggie, really.

3. I would have said, "yes" until I read the rest of the sentenced.
I am very capable of admitting when I fuck up.

4. I once thought I'd made a mistake...

...but was later proven wrong. I'm still not sure I agree, however.

edited for "apparent" typing errors....

14. Nope.
I'm honest and not proud. Therefore, no doo doo applies.

11. Nope.
I made a mistake yesterday, but you know all about that. I was the first to admit it.

That's what makes me a mature adult. I accept the fact that I'm often wrong.

9. It's easier in the long run to admit the mistake and correct it.
But then some people have a problem with long-range thinking.

13. word.
To be honest, I hate using the cool terms like "word". It seemed to fit, however.

17. When you make as many mistakes as I do....
...covering them up would be a full time job.

I learned a long time ago to fess up right away. That way you can move right along to the next mistake.

20. That sounds just like
a Deep Thought from Jack Handy. You should make a poster or bumper sticker with it.
