The universe is a vast cosmic conspiracy ...
- No use in highlighting what’s good in a Dostoyevsky novel. It would be much less time consuming, much more practical to highlight what’s not good.
- On the one hand, I want to discuss literature. On the other, I don’t want people to think I am pretentious enough to discuss literature.
- What the hell? Of course it matters what people think of you. (That’s why I take the time every morning to put clothes on. We all do.) What doesn’t matter is what you think people think of you. So stop thinking about it.
- Never been big on small talk. I don’t want to break the ice with things like “what do you do for a living?” I want to break the ice with “so what do you think the meaning of life is?”
- The other day I bought a $10 dollar bottle opener for a $6 bottle of wine. Pffffffffffffffffffft.
- The truth is we will never know who or what could be standing behind us when we are not looking, no matter how many time we turn our heads to look behind.
- The people that I so intensely dislike are actually, in many ways, a lot like me. I should either stop disliking them so intensely or stop loving myself.
- If you think you know how little you know now, just wait till tomorrow when you realize how little you knew about how much you didn’t know yesterday. Happens all the time.
- We are inside God’s imagination. Or something like that.
- Usually when you have to qualify it with “haha, that was pretty funny,” guess what? It wasn’t very funny.
- The internet is my spot in the shade.
- The internet is a big fucking deal. With the internet comes the merging of minds. With the internet: exponential growth. A millennium ago it was only possible for a mind to interact with a few other minds during its lifetime. The printed page allowed for a mind to interact with hundreds, even thousands of other minds during its lifetime. Now it’s normal for one mind to interact with hundreds in a single day. Do you people realize what you have created? The internet is the next Tower of Babel. It’s a big fucking deal.
- If I knew the inact of not thinking would bring me so much success, I would have begun practicing it long ago. Learn how to not think. ( “You must unlearn what you have learned.” – Yoda)
- I don’t think that people can be fake. I think that all that fakeness and pretense is actually fake, and that the real person hiding underneath is something genuine.
- Sometimes I laugh and I am not really sure what it is I am laughing at. Current theory on that: I’m laughing at ‘the pure ridiculousness of everything.’ Like the fact that people have to put on articles of clothing to cover their butts and ball sacks. People sort of have to pretend that their private parts aren’t there, otherwise they can’t be taken seriously. It’s pretty funny if you think about it.
tip4# I’ll answer; life itself has no meaning, It’s simply what you make out of the time you have.
tip 5# is Your answer to the question you ask in tip4#;
What counts and matters in life is among those “facts” you molded into thoughts regarding openers and wines.
But, for you consolation, you can open MANY bottles of various prices with one good bottle opener…
I don’t think life has a meaning, I think life is meaning.
Should’ve pushed the cork in the bottle with a blunt object. This has the added benefit of giving you a reason to finish the bottle.
