My work buddy and I were on of our get-away-from-the-desk walks in our 5 story parking lot; We start at the top and make our way down. We were discussing living with the purge and our latest purge triumphs. He confessed to just how bad the fever has a hold of him, and introduce me to Stealth Purging. Apparently his wife, like mine, hasn’t fully ‘found God’ when it comes to the purge. What my buddy does is move the offending piece of stuff out of sight. Then after some unspecified time, I’m guessing when it feels safe the item gets disposed of. It is critical that the disposal go undetected; so you cant just put it out to the curb. On trash day on his drive to work he simply adds it to one of his neighbors piles. The logic of this is if the wife doesn’t miss it she wont notice when it disappeared. Later should the wife ask about it my friend simply claims ignorance. I thought to myself “whew I don’t know if i can do that - even if it is for her own good. If my wife finds out there will be hell to pay.” I am by nature painfully honest.
When I finished chuckling my buddy revealed the depths of his disease. The Sabotage Purge. Apparently he and the wife had removed the vertical blinds in both boys rooms and replaced then with curtains. The Mrs insisted they hold onto those blinds. Apparently my buddy dutifully moved them here and there for some years. Recently when they were painting the rooms a wave of Purge Fever insanity took over and he deliberately stepped on them. He then called the Mrs and “why are we saving these blinds they are crushed and useless.”
I am shocked i tell you - just shocked but, also impressed. I need to buy this guy a beer.
