Watch yourself, you *&##*# !

Jun 24, 2018

I love to play with words, to sometimes attach a different meaning to a common phrase.
 
"Watch yourself" is generally used as a aggressive warning, meaning "back down or I will punch you" or sometimes in a more gentle  way, meaning "be careful, what you are doing might be dangerous".
 
Today I want you to connect a new, modern and high tech meaning to this phrase.
I want you to "watch yourself" physically on the skype screen. Next time you are on skype, enlarge the video of yourself and pay attention, this will allow you to watch and notice how others see you.
 
Use this "newfangled" tool to see and then improve your image.
 
If I don't see you through the week, I'll see you through the (skype) window.
 
Thanks,
 
Ian.
