Sponsors Message

Overwhelmed, underwhelmed, by the trivial and banal? Go Absurd!

Opening Absurdity

“Let us welcome our new Disengagement Officer who is here to disengage us all from all engagement”. Loud Applause
“They are obviously very very important because they are wearing very very VERY expensive business attire.” Loud Applause
“Let us start the two-year induction process!” Loud Applause

Quote of the Day

“How in the hell could a man enjoy being awakened at 8:30 a.m. by an alarm clock, leap out of bed, dress, force-feed, shit, piss, brush teeth and hair, and fight traffic to get to a place where essentially you made lots of money for somebody else and were asked to be grateful for the opportunity to do so? ”
(Charles Bukowski)

A Wise and Foolish Saying That May Have Been Said…

Experiencing pleasure is pleasuring the world
Or:
To experience pleasure is to learn the easy way

A Sometimes Cruel and Absurd World…

A Russian woman has died after accidentally dropping her mobile phone in the bath while it was charging and getting electrocuted. This is one of an increasing number of similar cases occurring throughout the world


Said a Movie Promotion Never…

Strap yourselves in for a 5-hour pedagogical adventure where people in business attire wank out wank words while watching Occupational Health and Safety Officers play Monopoly on speed

The Meaning of Life?

To work harder and harder and longer and longer and harder and harder until you are hard

Yet More Absurdity…

The unconscious barista made a mess of his dinner and it wasn’t coffee or ham

Said No One, Probably Ever….

“Stop catering for people’s pubic hair. It will never sell while the rain’s coming in”

A Statistic That Probably Never Was or Will Ever Be…

90% of all people eat cheese with their feet

From The Great Man Kurt Cobain

With the lights out, it's less dangerous  
Here we are now, entertain us
I feel stupid and contagious
Here we are now, entertain us

(From the Band Nirvana, From The Song, Smells Like Teen Spirit)


“How good’s masturbation?!”

A Sign You May Never See…


IT
NEVER
MATTERED


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?)
