Persistent Failure

News anchors have immense difficulty ending conversations with guests. There’s always a mess of extended pauses and interruptions at the conclusion of a discussion, making it all very awkward for all parties involved, including the viewers. There has to be a fix for this seemingly simple problem. Maybe a simple protocol for all anchors to [...]

Late

I’m 24 and have yet to figure out how to deal with teasing and smartasses.
With respect to the teasing, in the form of an annoying nickname, I am apparently supposed to not acknowledge it or show that it bothers me, and that will make it go away. But what’s unsettling is that I’m a stoic [...]

Boundless Sympathy

Over the past few weeks, I have come to realize that I have complete sympathy for every human being.
When I see someone, I see them as an innocent newborn who has been burdened (or blessed) with their genetic dispositions and their social and environmental experiences.
I can’t describe how much at peace I am with this.

A Post About “A Post About”

Back in May, I declared that I would thereafter use a particular model to title my posts, namely the placement of “A Post About” before the topic to be discussed.
However, after applying the technique a number of times, I must say that it’s becoming an increasingly superfluous eyesore. I mean, writing down the topic by [...]

I mentioned earlier that I have trouble choosing titles for my posts.
Well, I think I’ve come up with a solution.
I’m going to henceforth title my posts in accordance with the following model:
“A Post About (blah)”.
It’s similar in concept to the format used by the “Friends” sitcom to title their episodes.
Anyway, I feel my titles will [...]

I’m currently stagnant.
I’ve been this way for the past few days.
I can’t let this condition persist.
I have a lot of “bidness” to take care of, so to speak.
[C'mon ALI! Snap out of it!]
Did someone say something?

“When I grow up
I wanna be a book
So I can be read
‘Cause red’s my favorite color”

I’m Guilty of Evanescent Thoughts

Throughout the course of the day, I beget interesting thoughts which ultimately find themselves lost in the cul-de-sac of my subconscious.
Here are some notes I took earlier today in less than an hour:
1. Sneezing effects an euphoric feeling.
2. John G. Roberts is pro. He looks like the kind of man who has everything figured [...]

The Concepts of Space and Time Are Nebulous

Recently, I’ve spent a few moments pondering about the immensity of the universe and the seemingly insignificant nature of Earth and humanity in terms of space and time. (If you have a hard time picturing this, then check this out and play around with the options available. You’ll understand what I’m talking about.)
Anyway, after [...]

First Post

Hey, to someone or no one, there’s not much to see here yet. But, there will be. And I hope the posts are relevant and significant enough for people to enjoy. Until next time…
