The Semantics of Shit

Why do we call it "take a shit"
when we're giving our shit away?
Why do we call it "give a shit"
when we're holding shit close to our hearts?
Shit matters,
but not pieces of shit.
Cut that shit out.
Cut that shit out of your life.
(PSA: if you have to cut your literal shit out, see a doctor.)
(But if you have to cut your shit after it's out, tell reddit and watch people go mad.)
Shit sucks.
(Not really.)
Shit stinks.
(Usually.)
(But if it stinks, like, a lot, see a doctor.)
Your shit will reveal how your body feels.
And you should trust it more than external measures.
Know your shit.
Know yourself.
