Todays pet peeve is people who use the word integrity and have no idea what the hell they are talking about. Let me break it down for you. But, be warned, once you read the following you will never ever be able to bullshit yourself again, so if you are happy doing that you better move on to the drudge report and just skip this.
Integrity is an absolute. What does that mean? Yes here I go using another word nobody understands to clarify their understanding of the first word they don't understand. Well, an absolute means that it is not a matter of degree or convenience. Huh? More tricky words?! Hang with me Forest we are almost home. Not being a matter of degree in very simple terms means that you return a found wallet to the owner with all of the contents in tact, actually you didn't even look except to find their address. It doesn't mean you lightened the load $50 for gas to get over there. Not being a matter of convenience means that you don't practice absolute integrity one moment and none the next. You don't put it on like a bow tie for special occasions. It's before during and after every breath and or heartbeat from this point forward for the rest of your life, no exceptions whatsoever... you find a 10 million dollar diamond on the street and you go turn it in to the authorities (get a reciept) you don't put it on eBay. And it's not limited to financial, it relates to your domestic situation also. Don't lie to or cheat on your spouse or significant other, etc.
Decide now. You can either go with me on this or you are full of crap and you don't really have ANY integrity. Make that kind of commitment to yourself and you may end up with a little bit of attitude... it's not that I'm better than you it's just that I think I'm better than you.
