Go Absurd 69 – Laugh 69er Laugh


Quote of the Day

“Man of ideals that I am, perhaps my greatest ambition is really no more than to keep sitting at this table in this café.

“Everything is futile, like stirring dead ashes, and hazy like the moment before dawn breaks.”
(Fernando Pessoa)

Opening Absurdity

For many it’s already been opened, like Pandora’s box, so now we just need to….

An Absurd World…

A 23-year-old Texas man who put up a fake post on Facebook saying that he had been diagnosed with Covid-19 as a ‘social experiment’ has now lost his job and is facing jail time, despite not long after admitting it was a joke and amending the original post.

The Meaning of Life?

Deknowledging ourselves (whatever that means...)

Said No One, Probably Ever….

“It was very reproachful of your medieval ideological ways to disseminate and inseminate the documents with such grandiose proportions that it was unbecoming of a lady to be seen as thou knowest on Instagram, YOLO, and friends!”

A Statistic That May Be?…

99% of life is dedicated to 1% of life
From The Great Woman Leonora Carrington

“The full moon shone brightly between the trees, so I was able to see, a few yards in front of me, the origins of a distressing noise. It was two cabbages having a terrible fight. They were tearing each other’s leaves off with such ferocity that soon there was nothing but torn leaves everywhere and no cabbages.
“Never mind,” I told myself, “It’s only a nightmare.” But then I remembered suddenly that I’d never gone to bed that night, and so it couldn’t possibly be a nightmare. “That’s awful.”
(From, The Oval Lady, Other Stories: Six Surreal Stories)


“The clear highlight of my life was watching a penis enter a vagina!”

Go Absurd! Exercise:

As you observe someone looking through a shop window, announce,
“The windows get cleaned once every 23.2 years by His and Her majesty… Not really!”

A Sign You Will Probably Never See…

STEAL

SIGN
(or steel it)

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?)
