Seesaws are [Mostly] for Kids

January 3rd 2010 12:29
Have you seen kids playing at the playground? In my opinion, watching them playing at the playground kind of makes me forget about the bad things in this world. Kids playing and having fun at the playground is such a lovely sight.

Have you seen adults playing at the playground? Maybe not. Let me tell you how it feels to see grown-ups playing at the playground and, in particular, on the seesaw. Surprisingly, it has the same effect as watching kids - that is, it also makes me forget about the bad things in this world.

See for yourself:

Happy New Year!

January 1st 2010 15:12
It is officially 2010 and we said goodbye to 2009. One tradition during the start of the year is the making of what we call the New Year Resolution. Have you made any? Or you probably thought there was no need to make a resolution because you always fail to keep them, just like last year, and the year before that, and the year before the year before last year... and so on.

Why not stop making unattainable resolutions? Make ones that you know you can easily attain such as the following:

- Gain weight. At least 30 pounds.

- Stop exercising. Waste of time.

- Read less. Makes you think.

- Watch more TV. I've been missing some good stuff.

- Procrastinate more. Starting tomorrow.

- Spend more time at work, surfing with the T1.

- Take a vacation to someplace important: like, to see the largest ball of twine.

- Not jump off a cliff just because everyone else did.

- Stop bringing lunch from home: I should eat out more.

- Not have eight children at once.

- Get in a whole NEW rut!

- Start being superstitious.

- Personal goal: bring back disco.

- Not bet against the Minnesota Vikings.

- Buy an '83 Eldorado and invest in a really loud stereo system.

- Get the windows tinted. Buy some fur for the dash.

- Speak in a monotone voice and only use monosyllabicwords.

- Only wear jeans that are 2 sizes too small and use a chain or rope for a belt.

- Spend my summer vacation in Cyberspace.

- Not eat cloned meat.

- Create loose ends.

- Get more toys.

- Get further in debt.

- Not believe politicians.

- Not drive a motorized vehicle across thin ice.

- Avoid transmission of inter-species diseases.

- Avoid airplanes that spontaneously drop 1000 feet.

- Stay off the International Space Station.

- Not swim with pirhanas or sharks.

- Associate with even worse business clients.

- Spread out priorities beyond my ability to keep track of them.

- Wait around for opportunity.

- Focus on the faults of others.

- Mope about my faults.

- Never make New Year's resolutions again.

Redneck Joke: The Elevator

December 30th 2009 12:00
If not blondes, rednecks are the targets of some jokes. This is also another thing that I do not completely understand. They are often depicted as ignorant people, although I do not think they are.
redneck


Here's one joke involving a redneck:

Inside a mall, a redneck was hoping to get to the fifth floor so he went to where the elevator was. Later on, he started to furiously knock on the elevator door and shouted "C'mon. Open up!"

A guy in a suit came up to him and asked him, "What is the problem, sir?"

"This door won't open. I have been knocking for ages but no one would open," replied the redneck.

"Oh, you crazy man," said the guy in a suit in his sarcastic tone, "don't you see that doorbell to your left?"



I hope you got the joke.

Blonde Joke: The Microwave

December 29th 2009 10:01
I do not know why blondes are often the target of jokes about "naiveté" (a euphemism). Personally, this stereotyping of blondes as "naive" (another euphemism) is so unfair to them.

Oh well, here's one of the millions of jokes about blondes:

Cats are Amazing

December 28th 2009 08:51
You know what's amazing about cats? Actually, there are so many reasons why cats are an amazing animal. Aside from their agility and "cuteness" (according to the lady next door), cats sort of have this ability to accurately measure distance. This explains why they can easily pounce on their prey.

Sayings to Live by (extended version)

December 26th 2009 13:13
I was so bored earlier that I decided to amuse myself by reading some quotes from a book on inspirational[?] quotes and sayings. After reading some of them, I realized that they needed something more. So I came up with extended versions of these sayings. Here they are:

Peanut Talk

December 26th 2009 13:02
When I was in high school, I was enrolled in a Catholic school run by nuns. One time, a nun told us a story. She said that she was once on a bus eating peanuts. She was so bored. She looked at the peanuts and the peanuts started talking to her. One of the peanuts said "Look at that mountain. It's so beautiful." And a very meaningful conversation between her and the peanuts during that journey started from there. I honestly can't remember every detail of the story but that was basically the story she told us. I can't even remember the point she was driving at.

Also, in one mass I attended, the priest said he went to one famous retreat area along with others, including a nun. They all explored the place... individually. The nun went into a chapel. According to the nun, said the priest, she heard the wind whispering something to her... like "You are beautiful." Well, something like that. I also can't remember the details.

Buses and Trains (Annotated)

December 26th 2009 10:26
One day, I was listening to the song entitled Buses and Trains by Bachelor Girl. I am fond of talking to myself but, for once, I decided not to talk to myself that day. Instead, I thought of talking to the singer, imagining her talking to me through the lyrics of the song. My replies are the ones in parentheses and are yellow in color.

Weird and Funny

December 26th 2009 09:38
As the title suggests, this blog contains stuff that are both weird and funny - or maybe just plain weird. But who cares?

I have always been fascinated by weird and funny news, stories, etc. that I find on the Internet. So, I thought, "Why not have a blog for all these things and have them for other readers to enjoy as well?" I myself have some personal weird and funny stories to share, and I might as well share them through this blog.
