GO ABSURD!

Opening Absurdity

X: “Excuse my excuse me but where’s the nearest absurdity?”
Y: “Just over there, here, next to you, on you, inside you, way over there, and you’re looking right at it!”

Quote of the Day

“Marry, and you will regret it; don’t marry, you will also regret it; marry or don’t marry, you will regret it either way. Laugh at the world’s foolishness, you will regret it; weep over it, you will regret that too; laugh at the world’s foolishness or weep over it, you will regret both. Believe a woman, you will regret it; believe her not, you will also regret it… Hang yourself, you will regret it; do not hang yourself, and you will regret that too; hang yourself or don’t hang yourself, you’ll regret it either way; whether you hang yourself or do not hang yourself, you will regret both. This, gentlemen, is the essence of all philosophy.”
(Søren Kierkegaard)

A Saying Not Worth Saying That I Made Up And Am Saying Anyway...

Does the chicken lay the egg or does the egg lay the chicken?

A Cruel and Absurd World…

A 15-year-old girl has died after eating nachos with chicken and a few hours later haemorrhaging from the lungs and going into cardiac arrest. A post mortem found this was a freak accident:
“her lungs may have bled because of ‘obstruction by food particles’ that could have been caused by stomach acid being brought back up and swallowed back down the wrong way.”

A Statistic That Probably Never Was or Will Ever Be…

Yesterday, only 1.1% of the world population excreted faeces 


I have the teeth-ache…I think that is a bad tooth; please you to examine my mouth?... I shall you neat also your mouth, and you could care entertain it clean, for to preserve the mamel of the teeth; I could give you a opiate for to strengthen the gums. I thank you; I prefer the only means, which is to rinse the mouth with some water, or a little brandy.
(from page 73, dialogue 36. ‘With a dentist’, of the book, English As She Is Spoke)


“You all need to promise me that you will masturbate every day for the rest of your lives!”

DON’T
DO

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?)
