Ready. Set. Go Absurd!

Opening Absurdity

I wasn’t really or ever. I just spent my days singing into pink balloons that were yellow. (That’s a luminous juxtaposition spoken by the sir and dame of many antiquated dreams). Not get it

Quote of the Day

“... the more I learned, the more conscious did I become of the fact that I was ridiculous. So that for me my years of hard work at the university seem in the end to have existed for the sole purpose of demonstrating and proving to me, the more deeply engrossed I became in my studies, that I was an utterly absurd person.”
(Fyodor Dostoyevsky, The Dream of a Ridiculous Man)

An Absurd World…

A woman in Utah faces the prospect of jail and being put on a sex offender register all because she went topless in her own home… Maybe the date today is actually October 1873?

From The Great Man Lewis Carroll

“Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
      The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
      The frumious Bandersnatch!”
(2nd verse of the poem, Jabberwocky)

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?)
