You are careful and systematic in your business arrangments.
Uh huh so this one is more of a judgement about my character how is that a fortune?
If you continually give you will continually have.
Well I better continually have otherwise I won’t have anything to give.
I mean what the hell when even the zen phraseology of a fortune cookies is phoned in what a world . . . oh and okay.
Recently in an effort to develop a calmer perspective on life so I don’t die of an MI before I’m 30 I’ve started to just say okay to many things. It’s great because it can be a passive acceptance or a rude dismissal depending on the inflection. Either way it makes life much easier. So when someone tells me something that might be an issue instead of getting involved I just say “okay”. It’s not a good tool for socialization but it is certainly good at eschewing unnecessary interaction and involvement while stubbornly maintaining integrity.
More people should check out eripsa’s Summer Project. It’s something cool in the way of science fiction.
There you go:
A few things one [adult swim] is getting pretty awesome on Saturday nights Samurai Champloo is a good one and on the 28th of May they will be all anime (rhyme) back to the solid action which is cool if that’s your thing.
So I just used a piece of paper to pick some turkey from between my teeth I of course ate the piece of turkey is that gross? Seems perfectly okay. And as a counter point is it impolite to wipe the spit off your lips when you’ve been kissed? If the answer to either of those questions is yes then I might be in trouble.
Everybody craves applause . . . except comedians.
It just occurred to me as I embarked on the same sequence of events with the hope of achieving different results that I was being insane. This is the common definition I guess. Yet I’ve found myself doing many things like this and what is to be said? Am I nuts? Sure but not because of these reasonably inane things. I think that the complexities of technology and such that the speed with which this society is moving are driving all of us a bit insane in this way. What’s the best way to get a computer that is inexplicably not working to work? Restart it. Okay sometimes that works sometimes it doesn’t there is a rationale behind this action but it is usually a hully gully approach toward solving a problem that does not have an immediate solution. And what about the principle of persistence? The if first you don’t succeed adage? Perhaps it’s too wordy to say: “try try again but do it differently”. Still, it seems to me that in life there are many scenarios and situations where the results will vary and do vary dependent upon many factors and that we mortals in our infinite ignorance might always miss something.
Perhaps this insanity is a bit inevitable though I suppose it works only in a retroactive sense to attempt something with a priori expectations can only take one sofar. It is insane to do something that you know won’t work but you never really know any results until after the event has occurred and it is at this time that one is insane; not for taking the action or even having the expectation since this expectation is simply a skeptical assertion against previous empirical data. Rather the insanity comes from not understanding the results and not showing due regard toward the further validity of that empirical data to test this data is a human prerogative to dispute the results is simple insanity but to expect the same results for what is seemingly the same situation is in many cases is just as insane since it is not necessarily in our power to eliminate the aspect of uncertainty. Taking a hard line semantic approach, the point is moot since the same actions and circumstances is not seemingly the same, it is the same. On paper, in words, insanity is clear but in the real world I just don’t think that is the case.
