Edit it? It should be tied with ribbons and paraded in an open car through the streets! #noshitsherlock is the perfect response to sloppy thinking, lazy tweeting and brain fluff. Go, Max go!

Thanks for this link again Ann to give me another giggle. I really hate this guff too. I mean, it’s hardly likely that Twitter is going to have an uncomfortable silence is it?

But in terms of ranking the #crapquotes for crappiness at least the famous and dead have earned some respect somewhere along the line to be quoted whereas the leadership/HR/motivational gurus are the ones that do my head in and I have been so tempted to reply with #noshitsherlock

PS – If you edit my comments I will totally understand

Ah, then we’d be in danger of getting into the mobius strip club of quotes and there may be no escape!

Thank you for a wonderfully written article. I feel like quoting you already.

Just Google ‘quotations’ Max and you’ll get loads of them. You can even install them on your website and piss off all your potential customers!

What I want to know is which website is the source of all this “brain fluff” … everyone must be going to the same place.

Thanks Roberta – you’re sooo right. And don’t get me started on The Secret or I’ll have to have another rant!

oooo, I love that last comment.Taking action is key to anything really.Sitting around wishing for something aint gonna make it happen no matter how much you believe in Law Of Attraction
Get off ya bum and do something, thats how it works, not rocket science.
