Shit 12 Steppers Say

As a person in recovery, I catch myself saying some pretty funny shit relating to sobriety. I think we all can relate to that in one form or another. It can be around the tables at a 12-Step meeting, at homegroup picnic, sitting at the coffee shop or anywhere else sober folks gather...those pearls of sage advice and wisdom flow freely from the tongue. Sometimes it is meant to keep us focused on our recovery and sometimes it just is like WTF...no matter what the intention, we 12 Steppers are full of colorful sayings. Who says we are a glum lot? At any rate, a friend of mine told me about this video floating around on YouTube called "Shit 12 Steppers Say"and I about spit out my Diet Coke... more than once. In just 2:36, actress Frankie Norstad pretty much covers all the things we say. I watched it more than once, and I think you will too... it is funny. The following list are the things we say. Check out the video below and check out some of the other videos she has on Youtube.
