Make it up

Just make it up. No, I'm not saying to 'makeup'. Unless you've been thinking about it, then why not. I'm talking about just making things up.
You know how to do that, right? Sure ya do. Everyone does. Not everyone does it anymore, some people do it too much and get known for doing so, but for the majority of us I think it's fantastic advice. Just make it up.
I was not given the advice, nor do I claim to take ownership of said advice if I was to be confronted by a person larger than I, but I will say that I do enjoy living by it.
See, when ya make things up, your mind is absolutely free. Unharnessed by the seat belts of social necessaries, of practiced manners and lined notebook paper.
When you're making things up, your mind is truly in a place where creative intercourse reigns.
If you make things up too much, however, your mind finds patterns to fall back on when asked to make something up. It's just how it goes. That's why people have catch phrases and moves.
Like E.Honda and the thousand hand slaps. He might have made that up at one point, but just push the right button combination (as fast as you can) and all the sudden you trigger that tubby into action.
Same move, over and over.
But if it works, why do anything else?
I hear ya. You must like California Rolls, too.
It's fine. I'm not upset. Just live a little every once in awhile.
Go for the Apple Saucetini with mint julips and rochester sauce.
Just make things up. I'm not sure there's even such a thing as the nightmare I just created, but that's what's great about it, I didn't go for the thousand hand slaps.
I tried the flying uppercut out with a dash of sonic booms.
Sounds like it hurt.

Meeting Wrap Up

Go ahead. Run with it. Wait. Do you have enough direction?
Direction? I thought you told me to run with it?
I did. But I want to make sure you're running in the right direction.
So that means I need direction?
Kinda. It's complicated, you little shit. I want you to run with it-
But you want to make sure I've got somewhere to go with it?
...don't interrupt me, lackey. Shit. I'll find some other mongrel to do what you're doing.
Who? Who will you find? I'm the only one that understands what you're saying because I speak your languange.
Is that right? Whaddabout Mary or Hoshmere?
They're both liars. They just smile and nod like the posters in the break room say to do.
Is that so? Well we need to get those posters out of there.
I think it's fine. They're fine there.
Okay, leave 'em. One less thing. So do you have enough direction?
No I don't. But I don't want any more. Let me run with it for a day. If I go the wrong way, we'll blow the whistle and get me turned around, but until that happens, lemme run.
You got it. Sounds good.
Great.
Ya know, you've got management material written all over ya.
Shit, that ain't good, now is it? Haha.
Haha. Nice, Larry. We'll see ya tonight at 8 then?
Damn right you will. Let's really give em hell.
And bring that apple turnover you've been braggin' about!
Ahem. So, that's how ya sneak the direction in? End of the conversation sneak in?
No, not at all...yes. I'm sorry. I live off of telling people what to do, no matter if they already know to do it or not. I just need to validate my position all the time by telling underlings what to do, you know that. It's a nervous, power thirsty habit of mine.
Seek some help, would ya?
Nice. Now you're telling me what to do. I like that.
I bet you do.
