K.I.S.S.

We easily translate the acronym K.I.S.S. into Keep It Simple Stupid!  I’ve read on Wikipedia that this statement came about because of a need for the engineers to design an aircraft that can be fixed by an average mechanic in a war zone with limited tools - hence “keep it simple and stupid .” 

I’ve never liked calling others or myself stupid, so I use Keep It Simple Sweetie…more gentle, compassionate and warm.   Yet, no matter what you call it, it’s important to keep life simple.
