Psst! Have you heard...?

I realized I was addicted to gossiping, so I quit. But after four months, my friends think I'm a narcissistic bore -- and all I want to do is dish some dirt.

    I asked people to gossip

    I still do. I'm going through a divorce and I'm sick to death of talking about it. I got married in the past year so I'm still getting "How's married life?" which tells me my friends are slacking on the gossiping.

    I want the news to spread like a virus: "He took off his mask Scooby-do style after they got married and revealed himself to be an uber-religious, lazy, republican, womanizing, verbally abusive, multiple personality, halfwit, so she kicked him out. She doesn't like talking about it, just so you know."

    Forward.

    Repeat.

    trust me, gossip serves it's purpose.
