Who’s watching the crap deficit
By UndeclaredWriter
This dirty little secret needs to be exposed. What are we going to do about the crap deficit? For the past few years I have been taking crap from all kinds of people (bosses, annoyed neighbors, holier than thou clergy,…) and I haven’t given a crap about practically anything. I decided to do some investigative reporting (making stuff up) and here is what I found.
When I asked Earl Pomfry, a mild mannered 60ish chimney sweep, what his thoughts are on the crap deficit, he told me “Who in the hell are you?” When I pressed for further comment Pomfry added “Get away from me now before I call the cops you little punk!” I could tell that the amount of crap that this gentlemen has taken has reached extraordinary proportions. I was bolstered to continue my search and found another candidate for my survey.
Buffy Caddington, a sophomore at UC (University of The City) had a response that was so poignant, that I feel compelled to provide the transcript of our conversation.
Buffy: Are you following me?
Me: Do you give a crap?
Buffy: You are aware that this is a VERY public place?
Me: Buffy, has this place given you crap while you have been here?
Buffy: How do you know my name?
Me: It sounds like you have some strong feelings on this matter.
Buffy: I’m going to back up slowly and get that rent-a-cop over there.
Me: I feel your pain and thank you for your honest opinions.
As you can tell, people all over the world feel the same way I do. If this give-a-crap-deficit is not addressed soon, world chaos will overtake us.

This analysis is incomplete. While the author clearly takes crap, I’m not convinced that he doesn’t give a crap.
To wit, the author recently wrote about giving a crap in China. I sure the author has crapped in other circumstances.
That does bring up the obvious problem of importing and exporting crap, for I think that an international crap deficit is a much larger and looming crisis than the author’s own personal crap-imbalance.
