She is a blonde, just toss something shiny her direction to distract her. Soon she will be off trying to use white out to auto correct her cell phone.And girl don’t point that finger at me……its got a nail.Now if you have talent do a grab here, a touch there, a whispered something, a little manipulation and she will forget all about world conquest.
@John LustigRE: “I’ve used this image on lots of merchandise. (Sometimes with “ruin” but usually with “run.”) So, just curious, which one do you prefer?”
“I’ve Got Lives to Ruin” is appropriate for a bad-girl home-wrecking femme fatale. “I’ve Got Lives to Run” is appropriate for a nosy busybody who’s always meddling in other people’s business. I believe Mary Worth has the slogan knitted in a sampler in a frame on her wall.
Thanks, everybody. We seem to have a pretty solid majority for “ruin.” I think for a cartoon “ruin” may indeed be better. However, for merchandise, I still think “run” MIGHT work better since it’s a more positive message. Still…gotta think about it. Thanks again.
John, if you are doing something like a mug, t-shirt, bag, etc., with two ‘sides,’ put the same image on both sides, with just the ‘I’ in ‘run’ on one side only. Gives the buyer a choice, or covers more options.

“More caffeine! I’ve got lives to ruin.”
That works, too. There’s no “I” in team, but there sure is one in ruin.

“More caffeine! I’ve got lives to run.” Ah yes, the thought process of your average liberal politician…

I’ve used this image on lots of merchandise. (Sometimes with “ruin” but usually with “run.”) So, just curious, which one do you prefer?
