Just because you're hung like a moose...

doesn't mean you have to do porn. So says Kumar, but even he wises up eventually and decides to do the responsible grown up thing.

Which brings me to this broader point:

Slackers aren't stupid, they are just too lazy to do anything about their situation.

or in my case too lazy and fearful. VD is around the corner, but that's a topic for future discussion.

Nostalgia is a seductive liar

Spongebob is resting in peace (I hope). His replacement "Dr. Dre" seems to be enjoying his new digs. Have a job interview next week. We'll see what happens.

I saw a re-run of West Wing tonight which had an unexpectedly profound effect on me. I think I really identified with the Tobey character when his love interest, in her refusal of his marriage proposal, called him sad. I wonder if I'm ever not going to be "sad"...

This Just In: Johnny Carson is dead....

It became very clear to me sitting out there today, that every decision I've ever made, in my entire life, has been wrong. My life is the opposite of everything I want it to be. Every instinct I have, in every aspect of life, be it something to wear, something to eat ... It's all been wrong.

If every instinct you have is wrong, then the opposite would have to be right.


Seinfeld logic.......

Spongebob is on the verge of death

Well my new experiment is off to a flying start. Spongebob, my fantail goldfish, is fighting for its life. I don't have the heart to euthanize it, but watching it in agony is no bed of roses either. Why a 2 inch fish that I've had less than two months can have such a profound effect on me, while members of my family rarely invoke such feelings of bonding, is a mystery to me.

Spent a little while on Monster to find a job, but it was quite depressing and annoying. But must press on b/c after all the definition of insanity ......

"The definition of insanity: Doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results"

Patterns are difficult to break

Gotta be in it to win it

"When you make a mistake, there are only three things you should do about it: admit it, learn from it, and don't repeat it."

Admission is the first step........

I guess it's time to stop the insanity, recognize what I KNOW and follow my own advice. I'm way too smart for voluntary insanity. As the concept of hope is somewhat difficult for a pessimistic malcontent who lacks faith, I'm opting to focus on reason instead. After all logic should be immune to cynisim. We shall see.
