Standard Introduction (for now…)
“…because this blog* is absurd, I love it;
because it is useless, I want to give it away; and because wanting to give it
to you serves no purpose, I give it to you…”
(Fernando Pessoa, The Book of Disquiet)

From
The Great Man E. M. Cioran…
I
was in a café where I often went, and someone who was a teacher in the same
school came up and asked, “Can I sit at your table?” I said, “Yes.
But who are you?” I knew him. He said, “But how’s that?
You know me! I’m the gym teacher at the school.” I said, “Ah?
You’re not Shakespeare?” “What do you mean, of course I’m not
Shakespeare. What an idea!” “Seriously? You’re not Shakespeare?
Then get out!” He went immediately to the school and declared that
I’d gone mad.
But you were completely conscious of what you were doing.
Naturally. Absolutely. Otherwise it would have been very serious, I
would have been locked up. No, no, I was absolutely conscious. It
was an absurd decision and I carried it through. It lasted for two or
three days, that was enough. But I wanted to show who Shakespeare was for
me, I had such admiration for him. I think if I had had the genius, the
work I would have liked to have written is Macbeth.

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?)
