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 [...]

Car got broken into at some point last night. Middle of evening actually. Pretty brazen of the person(s) involved. Didn’t find out about it all until the following morning. Weird. Landlady didn’t know it was my car…
Also had to deal with AT&T a few times regarding the features on my iPhone.
Plus (funny that [...]

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.

In light of reality, I find it difficult to believe in a good god, or any other higher being or collection of higher beings that is indeed good.
So, I’ve thought:
If there’s no good god: Fuhgeddaboudit.
If there’s a bad god: Fuhgeddaboudit.
If there’s no god: Fuhgeddaboudit.
Now, I think I’m an “agnostic secular-humanist”, which doesn’t make me a [...]

The day before yesterday, I witnessed the Moon Illusion, when the Moon in Summer appears unusually large when close to the horizon. To me, it’s always an awe-inspiring moment because it gets me thinking about stuff.
First, I think about the Moon crashing into Earth. (Talk about a slap in the face!) It’s [...]

Not knowing the meaning of life or what happens after death is frustrating.
Absolute and Ultimate Truth! Where are you?!
A lot of people take a leap of faith to escape this despair.
On the other hand, I’m not sure what I’m doing or what I plan to do in that regard.

(FYI: this is a half-assed post, because I don’t feel like trying. So, calm down, settle down, take it easy.)
20/20’s special “Last Days On Earth” substantiated my intent to be at the precise impact point of any apocalyptic asteroid headed towards Earth.
It’s all about “quick and painless”, my friend.

There’s nothing wrong with being kind…
…unless you’re a punching bag.

Sister: (takes her glasses off)
ALI: You look different without your glasses.
Sister: Yeah. I know.
ALI: (takes his glasses off)
Sister: I can’t see without my glasses.

What makes the exchange humorous is very subtle. I guess you had to be there.

No more pizza.
No more burgers and fries.
No more soda.
I’ve had a freakishly horrible diet since the start of college.
I really need to watch what I eat now, or I’ll pay for my bad habits in the future.
I don’t know what’s come over me. Yesterday, during dinner, I had some sort of revelation, and it [...]
