“Do or do not do…there is no try.” Yoda understood that words have power. How we say something is as important as what we think we are saying. He also understood how to talk in reverse and still be understood. That’s what makes him a Jedi master. So with our Star Wars references fully in place, we welcome you to Thursday’s language talk on CoupleDumb.

Wednesday! Hump Day! It is just another day to talk smack about a celebrity who demonstrates dysfunctional behavior. We can call this day show-and-tell with a side of rant or we can call it what it really is: Celebrity Smackdown! This week we chose to marinate in the behavior of one particular celebrity. Last week, he was in the news, papers, every website and pretty sure the topic of cafeteria talk at our son’s Elementary School, in between sharing fruit roll ups. Of course we are talking about Kanye and since this week’s theme is language, he is the perfect example of a meta-message. What’s that you ask?

Happy Tuesday everyone! If you have stumbled onto our site today you are probably here to read about kids. You are either a parent or going to be or have a friend or once heard there are such things as little people. We encourage people without children to read our Tuesday posts because it helps put things into perspective by showing you a different point of view on all those horrible things that happened in your childhood. We can’t wait to see what our kids write about us and the language they’ll use.
