Inject some absurdity into your life! Ring Now!

Opening Absurdity

I once went on a Trans-Siberian voyage to nowhere – it was everything. I drank coffee. The smoothie slurped me. I melodised my sleep by massaging the clickety clacks with the help of an oversized unicorn who recited every word that had never been said

Quote of the Day

“My joy is that there is no such world at all, but that the substance of life is in everyone! There is no reason to be troubled because we are absurd, is there? For we really are: we are absurd, frivolous, we have bad habits, we're bored, we don't know how to look around ourselves, we don't know how to understand, we are all like this, all of us, you, and I, and everyone!”


An Absurd World…

A newly married couple from Texas died only minutes after getting married when colliding with a truck on the way to their reception. The same justice of the peace who married them also declared them dead


An Absurd Thought or A Thought From The Absurd?

A self-reflection on the other, who is self and who is other?

Something To Wear



Yet More Absurdity…

Directing inattentions to the myriad cannelloni balls slurped on by waiter and waitress who never wait they just go and bo. Bo and go just they wait never who waitress and waiter by on slurped balls cannelloni myriad the to inattentions directing.

Does the football game start at noon or high noon Mr Garnish? I say, I say, what score is that? It looks like an artificial alligator on steroids drinking in direct marketing while walking past, walking past, walking past

Go Absurd! Exercise:

When ordering a takeaway coffee next and the barista/waiter/waitress/staff member asks for your name give a fictious name like Penelope the 2nd or Sir Steve Steven. Unless, of course, that is your name…

Remember

Absurd responsibly. The Buddhist no harm principle applies here. Do not harm yourself or others when going absurd. (Maybe what I have just written is absurd?)
