Feeling lost and adrift? Gain inner peace from reading Homer. No, not the Greek guy. Homer Simpson. Here are some Homeric jewels to live by.
- “The answers to life’s problems aren’t at the bottom of a bottle. They’re on TV.”
- “What’s the point of going out? We’re just going to end up back here anyway.”
- “Trying is the first step towards failure.”
- “You can’t keep blaming yourself. Just blame yourself once and move on.”
- “Doughnuts. Is there anything they can’t do?”
- “The three little sentences that will get you through life. No. 1: Cover for me. No. 2: Oh, good idea boss. No. 3: It was like that when I got here.” (-lifeisajoke.com)
Got this while I was browsing the net…not that I intend to find this certain topic, just felt like posting that’s all. By the way, it was porn.
DON’T know what to believe? Urban myths spread like wildfire – at the bar, via e-mail, even in local newspapers and on TV news reports. Here are some way to spot one, according to journalist and creator of the Urban Myth board game, Scott Magnish:
- Your brother-in-law’s flatmate’s friend: myths are never first-hand and almost always many times removed.
- Semi-anonymous attribution: if the suspected myth is in the news, quotes are almost untraceable, as no proper names are given. (e.g. “police spokesperson” is quoted, not indicating who’s that “spokesperson” the news is referring to.)
- Too good to be true: “If you think about the story, you can poke a couple of holes in it yourself”-Magnish.
- The truth is on the Internet: c’mon guys, I think I made my point quite clear…everything’s on the Internet. Including porn.
You might be helping the environment when you re-use water bottles, but researchers say you could also be risking your health. A study of kids’ re-used water bottles at a Canadian secondary school found the kinds and levels of bacteria that would prompt a health department warning to boil tap water. About a third of the samples were contaminated, some with feacal bacteria that probably came from the kinds’ hands and mouths as they repeatedly used the same bottles without washing them. However, study suggests the kind of washing needed to kill the bacteria might accelerate the breakdwon of plastic, potentially causing the toxic chemicals (DEHA) to migrate into the liquid.
Food safety and plastics experts contend, however, that many bottles are safe as the are made with non harmful substance (i’d rather not mention abbreviations to express the content more effeciently). Although these so called non-harmful bottles are design for single use, the can be re-used without any health risk provided that they are cleaned and handled hygienically…tadaaa.
THIS justification for vivsection is often used by small boys, but – horrifically – it’s untrue. An earthworm’s wital organs are found above the saddle on its back, so chop too far up and you’ll kill it. Chop lower and you’re simply cutting off its tail. The new-worm myth probbably persists bacause muscle spasms can keep an amputated tail twitching for hours. the truncated worm will usually regrow its tail, though, sa as childhood hobbies go, worm slicing is at least preferable to pouring boiling water on ants.
EXISTENTIALISM is a philosophical movement which emphasizes on individual existence, freedom, and choice.
There are several philosophical positions all related to existential philosophy but the main identifiable common proposition, is that existence precedes essence. By this, existentialism states that man exists and in that existence man defines himself and the world in his own subjectivity, and wanders between choice, freedom, and existential angst.
To put this simply, existentialism is a battle between you and the forces surrounding and affecting you…the simplest of all questions…where do we go from here? am I free? does my decisions lead me to what am I now and to who have I become? never ending. or is it as complex as choice itself?. Yes, choice…a mere yes or no could affect the road that you have taken. Do we simply believe that luck has played a part on our daily lives or do we stick to the infamous line that you are responsible for your own actions…it’s just a matter of choice really.
THIS is one bad ass band that I have ever met! yeah I know it’s kinda “old school” well just to let ya know…I’m not that young enough either. One of my all time favorite tunes, very upbeat. so enjoy ska…always.hehe
I had a small friend,
Who had a fat friend
Who had a big friend
Who gave birth to many friends
With our flashlights to the sky
We waited for them to land.
I got two tall friends
Who know my small friend
Who seem to have a problem with you
They got roman candles
Bottle rockets for the vandals
Who covered our lockers in glue.
Were on our way here we go
Were gonna take over
Set it off one last time
Here we come again.
We were strangers
And we were pilgrims
Role models of the family man
Pioneers and patriarchs
Patriots and matriarchs
Staking out the promised land
Our little army
We were commandos
Gorillas with decoder rings
We felt some opposition
From some villains
Who were wishin
They could be cadets and kings.
All systems go!
Soon the world will know
The fury of attack
Feel the wrath of
The super rad
The super rad
Super rad!
And if we die
Before the battles through
Tell our moms, tell our dads
That we were super rad!
All systems go
As we step into the octagon
Feel the wrath of mission code name:
Applesauce applesauce applesauce
and honestly i really could fall for you right now… it’s been eight long months and I’ve been keeping all those messages in my thoughts, and these thoughts flying from nowhere… a wishful thinking that somehow…even for the slightest possibility that you could feel at the very least…the same way as i do. and I’m not suppose to act or think of anything beyond this reason but how could i not think of anything other than our endless laughter because every second…every minute of the passing days you of all people have certainly swept me away. please…don’t let this feeling end.
well it caught up and honestly… I’ve fallen for you.
Well, I’ll wait till you listen
I won’t say a word
To follow your instincts
Just never worked for me
Oh, you’re silent but strong, (yeah, I’m playing that card)
And you’re noticing nothing again
Now I’m lying on the table
With everything you said
Keep that in mind, the way that it felt
When the most I could do was to just blame myself
(Feel it out for once and feel nothing like everyone else)
When the most I could do was to just blame myself
And I know you know, everything
I know you didn’t mean it
I know you didn’t mean it
I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didn’t mean it (start it all over)
I know you didn’t mean it (remember more than you’d like to forget)
So, we’re talking forever
And you almost feel better
But, better’s no excuse for tonight
You see, it’s never bad enough
To just leave or give up
But, it’s never good enough to feel right
Now I’m lying on the table
With everything you said
It will all catch up eventually
Well, it caught up and honestly
The weight of my decisions
Were impossible to hold
But they were never yours
They were never yours
Well I, know you know, everything
I know you didn’t mean it
I know you didn’t mean it
I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didn’t mean it (start it all over)
I know you didn’t mean it (remember more than you’d like to forget)
Drop everything, start it all over
Remember more than you’d like to forget [x2]
Would you like to forget? [x2]
Drop everything, start it all over
Well, drop everything start it all over (would you like to forget)
Drop everything start it all over
Start it all…
Well I, know you know, everything
I know you didn’t mean it
I know you didn’t mean it
I know you know, everything (drop everything)
I know you didn’t mean it (start it all over)
I know you didn’t mean it (remember more than you’d like to forget)
I know you know
I know you know…you know, you know, you know…
