good

So I did my presentation today. The one I've been working on for a week or so, including the video. And while I did hope for good feedback I did't expect it to be so good. Well really wanted to blush several times about it. But I should do it more often. I really love stage and being on it time to time.....yeah... and btw posting this with my Win Phone afer several celebrational Jacks, so please pardon the typos and mistakes. Had to celebrate. Back in the happy funny tired state i go. Cheers! Have a nice...

bad

I do know that I have strange taste of humor. And I do use it freely, just to break the ice or awkwardness. I can take the shot of being the stupid person.

However I have felt several times recently that a stupid joke I have done has been turned into a personal attack or assault at me. I can take a shot indeed but not from a Kalaznikov. It just goes over my comfort zone. I like to think it's not intentional and maybe it is just me who feels it.

But more and more I think about losing my humor so I wouldn't feel offended later.
And humor is my friend, my dear friend. Really, I wouldn't be alive right now without it.
But I also can not bare anymore to have the same shitty feeling after every social event.

Most likely it's just a phase.
I hope it is.

Monday gibberish

"Still, I don't understand why they call Amsterdam like that if there are no amsters there. I looked for them, I really did. But all I saw was hookers and cannabis. Hmmm ... Yes, Hookerdam or Cannabisdam would be more suitable, or what you think?"

=) Just me losing my mind at work ... thank god there is no sanity in mondays.

 "mon" means monster, right? (digimon, pokemon etc) so Monday is the Monster Day?
:P Explains a lot

Socrates-saurus

This is the sad but true story of the first thinker in the world.

It was just another day -nothing special about it. At least when you are used to giant plants and gigantic lizards roaming around in your backyard. This story is from time we are aware of thanks to the old odd men with too much free time, toothbrushes and patience to rub old bones with it.

The protagonist of this story was just wandering in the woods searching for food. Because when you are a huge green dinosaur this is more-less all you do day by day. For god sake you have a bloody big body to feed.

So he was just wondering around when suddenly something happened. Something new and strange.
There was a tickling sensation in his head.

Was it something he ate?
Had the apples gone bad
or the cow-saurus’es mad?
Were the carrots evil?
Or was it a earworm or parasite?

No! Nothing so simple and logical.
A thought was being created. The first thought in the world!
And it is was a big effort.

He stopped ... or to be exact he froze in one place for several minutes, hours... days, trying to think. All the energy in his body was forwarded to the brain for the important task of creating the first thought.


It could have been a time for breakthrough. It could have been a beginning of a new species, a new era. The era of thinking dinosaur. Who would later be, by the old men with toothbrushes and fetish for bones, named Socrates-saurus.

However it is not wise to stand in one place for too long in the world full of giant green hungry predators. At least when the rocks and trees don’t look like big green dinosaurs standing in one place – in which case it would be a perfect camouflage.

And so it happened that before he even realized it, he was being consumed. And not by just someone but as it seemed by everyone in who wanted to have a simple meal. It was a whole pack.
It was already too late  for him to to run and save himself. He had also failed the hiding check.

All he could do now was to think faster so he would at least have some meaning in his life – being the creator of first thought in the world.

So he steamed it up.
All the neurons in his brain were pushed to the maximum.
He didn’t care for his body anymore, all he cared was his mission.

And just a mere second before he died he, yes He not someone else, had created the first thought in the world.

Which was:

“What is the meaning of life?”


And that is how irony was born.

We as humans have come a long way, but sometimes we are not so different from the early thinkers. Yes, we are not so green, not so big and we are more used to thinking.
But time to time even we have this sensation of having to struggle for just one thought.
When thinking is painful as hell and we go around without destination making “Raaaarrrhhhhh” noises.

We call it a hangover.



And that's all from me =)
Cheers!
