The reality is, there's an abundance of ways in which folks can lose their lips, and without even speaking, i.e. Twitter, Facebook, MySpace, Linkedin, Blogging, You Tube, and texting to name a few silent lip movers. Heck - social networking is even worse than the spoken word, as words can be forgotten (and denied) - while all that other stuff gets recorded, and in theory, can be accessed (and hard to deny) by intended and unintended ears and eyes forever. Whoa is right!
In today's high-tech world ... coupled with our low-tech human nature to judge and impugn ... there are just way too many ways to say/text/blog too much, which can get us into a lot of trouble. So let's be careful when it comes to loose lips, or loose fingers, or loose videos, or anything loose that can lose us our jobs, or lose us a chance at a job. It's just not worth it.
When it comes to deciding whether or not something we say/text/blog/video - should be said/texted/blogged/videod - just remember the other oldie but goodie expression favored by moms: "If you have nothing nice to say, don't say it." True that.
Loose Lips Are Bad.
