Push my button

By
Real Estate Agent with Jameson Sotheby's International Realty

These days, personally, I have enough drama in my life, but I would soooo push that button. I would be unable to resist the urge.

I mean c'mon.. it's a big, big button standing there mocking me... just mocking me... "c'mon, Alan.  Push me, g'head, just do it!"

Would you push the button?  I found it fun, but had some serious potential to go sideways.

Good morning Alan May ,

I'm so glad that Kathy Streib featured this hilarious post. Barbara Todaro is right..off the wall insanity!

OMG. That was hysterical. Yes, yes, I'd probably want to push the button. I'd probably do it. 

TOOO funny.

All I have to say Alan May is...I just picked myself up from the floor laughing. The real question was "would I push the arrow?" Guess I did...lol

May 17, 2020 08:21 AM
Alan May

oh, man.  Don't push the 'arrow', dude.  It's the button.. the button!!

Love everyone's faces, as they watch it unfold. Yes, I think, no I know I would have pressed the button.

I think they're all fortunate there were no off-duty cops there.

That was quite a bit of drama. Good thing it did not escalate or get others involved.

I guess I really don't know for sure whether I would have pushed or not. My gut feeling now is probably not. I would have suspected some kind of hidden camera thing and not not want to be captured in a video.

and I can understand that, too.

I wonder how many people walked by and DID NOT push the button??  That was amazing!!!

May 18, 2020 10:59 PM
Alan May

I'm sure plenty of people didn't push that button.

Hi Alan May - when life gets too serious it is time to push that button.

I'd have been pushing that button all year long.

Hello Alan - although Kathy Streib included this in her "What I Learned Ths Week" post back in May, 2020 I didn't "see" it until today as Carol Williams included it in her SCS Second Chance Saturday selection.  Talk about second chances.  Ah, ActiveRain exploration!

Ahh... that explains its sudden resurgence.

Yeah, I think the drama of this year, and all the political drama of late has me drama-phobic. No thank you. We are packing up the car and the dog and heading out to the Columbia River gorge for a few days of autumn color viewing and hikes. The kind of adventure that soothes the soul. 

Oct 17, 2020 07:28 AM

definitely much calmer.

I have known some people that would continually push the drama button and then make drama when the button no longer worked. LOL
