Go Absurd Number 11


Sponsors Message

Hungry? Thirsty? Horny? Go Absurd!

Opening Absurdity

Bipartisan, buy parmesan, and grate
the world into cheese before
melting it on the castigated jury
to contract a rare tropical disease
off the coast of Ireland

Quote of the Day

“We can regard our life as a uselessly disturbing episode in the blissful repose of nothingness.” (Arthur Schopenhauer)

An Absurd World…

Warning, the following may be distressing to some viewers
In July this year 2 German backpackers did the unthinkable on the steps of the Rialto Bridge in Venice… they made their own coffee on a travel cooker! Of course, for such a shocking crime, they were reported to the police by a passer-by and fined 950 Euros

 "Venice must be respected and those impolite people who come here and do what they want must understand that. Thanks to the local police, they will be sanctioned and removed." (Venice Mayor, Luigi Brugnaro)

A Wise and Foolish Saying That Will Probably Never Be Said…

Too many speakers spoil the view

The Meaning of Life?

Death

Yet More Absurdity…

That was very garrulous of you Lucinda, Henry was taking his tea proper like with an orange peel stuck up his ass while riding an ass and you had to say “I love you” even though you’re a dog owner who eats green? It wasn’t

Said No One, Probably Ever….

“I just remembered, I need to honour myself in bed with 10 mirrors and a large glass of purple orange juice”

From The Great Man Bob Dylan

Cloud so swift the rain fallin' in
Gonna see a movie called Gunga Din
Pack up your money, pull up your tent in the wind
You ain't a goin' no where

or is it…

Clouds so swift, and rain fallin' in
Gonna see a movie called 'Gunga Din'
Pack up your money, pull up your tent, McGuinn
You ain't a'goin' nowhere

(First lines from the song, You Ain’t Goin’ Nowhere
From the album, The Basement Tapes)

Go Absurd! Exercise:

Go to a public area such as a train station or library and randomly start doing push-ups and sit-ups. No one ever does this and hence you will most likely get plenty of perplexed/amused looks because of it

Absurd Sign You Will Probably Never See…


GO

FASTER!

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?)
