Go Absurd 80 – Where the Grass is Always


Quote of the Day

“This world in itself is not reasonable, that is all that can be said. But what is absurd is the confrontation of this irrational and the wild longing for clarity whose call echoes in the human heart.”
(ALBERT CAMUS, The Myth of Sisyphus and Other Essays)

Go Absurd! Exercise:

Go to a random university lecture and exclaim, when everyone is quiet,
“I never knew you could know so much knowing!”

An Absurd World…

A massive brawl has erupted at, and on, an American airport carousel after one woman allegedly hit another woman while they were waiting for their bags which set off a huge all-in brawl

A Blade of Grass and How it Turns Green: A Sociological and Scientific Analysis of Phenomenological Possibilities

A Possibly Wise, Possibly Foolish Question…

Did you know that it wasn’t?

From The Great Man Robert Walser

“Of course, there’s progress on earth, so called, but that’s only one of the many lies which the business people put out, so that they can squeeze money out of the crowd more blatantly and mercilessly. The masses are the slaves of today, and the individual is the slave of the vast mass-ideas. There’s nothing beautiful and excellent left. You must dream up beauty and goodness and justice.”
(Johann talking to his brother Jakob in Walser’s novel, Jakob Von Gunten)

The Meaning of Life?

Go Ask Your Mother 

Said No One, Probably Ever….

“If it was for you I wouldn’t be here where the grass is green and the girls are… also green. Anyone interested in a quick phenomenological study?”

A Statistic That Probably Never Was or Will Ever Be…

43% of people last night jumped out of bed like a hungry wolf and exclaimed,
“I’m hungry like the wolf”


“Did someone say KFC?”

KEEP

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?)
