Sadly, two things you can almost always count above anything else (with we Americans anyways):

1. People coming to collect on a debt;*

2. When you insult or offend someone, most assuredly they will not keep their mouth shut or do nothing.*

IT’S JUST A PITY THAT IN THE MORE POSITIVE ATTRIBUTES, PEOPLE ARE NOT SO PREDICTABLE.

•For example, if only people were as motivated to pay back money as they are at collecting it. If only people were as keen in apologizing as they are in hurling insults after having received one…

Sidenote: In most instances; if you hurt someone, and they hurt you back -people tend to view that as being even. UTTER NONSENSE – If you hurt somebody and they hurt you back you still owe them in amends! Whether they make one or not does not excuse you. Whether they make one or not is something they have to live with. Whether they make one or not is irrelevant in so far as the amends you owe. Yes, that’s right -it’s doubly humiliating, or humbling rather, to have to make an amends to somebody we hurt after they hurt us in return isn’t it?
