Dumbass Sayings: “Grab The Bull By The Horns”

More like dress up all funny
and evade the bull with a giant stick.

A lot of motivational speakers recommend living life by “Grabbing the bull by the horns.” This is supposed to mean proactively going after what you want and making things happen for yourself, but if you grab a bull by the horns the only thing you’re going to make happen is a multiple bone fractures. Grabbing a bull by the horns is arguably one of the dumbest things someone can do. Running with the bulls in Pamplona, Spain is pretty stupid, but at least none of those idiots ever try literally grabbing a bull by the horns. There’s reason they never try that and that’s because it’s a death sentence. People shouldn’t compare life to a bull. There are really no similarities at all. And IF life were a bull the best advice anyone could give you would be to run and maybe try to climb to higher ground where the bull can’t reach you since bulls can’t climb. Unfortunately that doesn’t sound as exciting so people recommend grabbing a bull’s horns. If you want to grab a bull by the horns, fine. Be my guest! Just don’t be surprised when it shakes you off its horns like a rag doll and gores you with said horns in the ribcage, puncturing your lungs and then trampling your skull into pieces.
