Why hostile wit?

Hostile = nonconformist, skeptical, exposing, scrappy, defiant, saucy, offbeat. “Hostile” like that pair of “hostile underwear” that attacks your crotch. Not “hostile” meaning unkind, bitter or malicious.

Witness = to be present, to affirm the truth, advocate, corroborate.

Wit = insight, common sense, and humor. The stuff worth living for.

Happiness is calling out public sexist entitlement

“Not today, buddy. Not on my watch. Now, get the fuck out of here and take your place at the back of the line where you belong.” The “douchebag” being implied by my judgy demeanor, of course. He skulked back from whence he came, never to be seen by us again.
