Live. Laugh. Love. – Hive and Nest

Am I the only one who can’t stand the moronic idea behind
Live. Laugh. Love.?

I mean, what is this supposed to inspire people to do? Am I supposed to look at this sign at someone’s house and think, “Boy, I sure wanted to kill myself but then I saw that vinyl lettering on your wall. Now everything is great!” Or, “That joke sure was funny but I don’t know what to do about it. Oh wait, there’s a sign over there that says ‘laugh’. That’s a great idea!” Or how about, “I think I will fall in love today. All I have to do is read a sign on the family room wall and–BAM–I’m in love. Easy as pie.” Or maybe, “If only there were some word to describe this feeling I have for my husband and children. Hey . . . wait a sec. Love! That’s it! Sure am glad I saw that wooden sign on my neighbor’s mantel.”

Yeah, yeah I get the idea.  It’s just supposed to inspire you to live your life fully.  But it’s such a dumb way to put it.  (Sorry if you have this phrase in your house.  Which, chances are, you do because I see this sucker everywhere.  Like on every single thing in the T.J. Maxx decor department.)  Whew, I needed to get that off my chest.  Maybe you need something like this instead:
