It's already being done, you are late
Just came to my mind, I was still studying in Utrecht. At the escalators was this old arab man who was obviously afraid to step on it. I was only one of the hundreds of people who must have seen he was desperate for someone giving him a hand but I was really in a hurry because I was late I no second to lose. I am now kinda ashamed I didn't help him down but I had an exam. It kinda haunts me how desperately he was looking around for someone to come to his aid, I passed the exam but failed at humanity that day
I'm thinking of the most angry and defiant ring tone song for my phone.
This one obviously just rolled of the mountain, he probably never seen an escalator before and was obviously desperate, trembling and almost in tears. I don't care if I was one out of hundreds who saw it, I should have given him a hand I would only have been 5 minutes late
Before I had a car, I always used my bicycle and was always angry with how automobile drivers behaved. When I now drive my car, I always get angry at how automobile drivers behave, but also with how cyclists behave, but when I go by bicycle, I get angry with automobile drivers only.
In fact, when you are driving a vehicle, no matter which one, I think you are always convinced that you drive well and flawless, while all others are idiots who get in your way.
Vehicles bring out the worst in humans and should be forbidden. If everybody would always go by foot, the world would be more relaxed and peaceful. Just like in the Stone Age...
Coffee and chocolate are a match made in heaven, but the devil must have somehow spoiled it, since it makes you fat.
It is cruel. I absolutely love coffee and chocolate, but can't have too much of either, since too much caffeine or too much chocolate are unhealthy.
Why can't salad or Brussels sprouts be unhealthy? Why can't they invent healthy cigars and healthy whisky. Useless scientists.
Pure chocolate is very healthy in fact
Odd, but dark chocolate is considered good for the heart :2thumbsup:

The rear plastic window in my car fell out recently. It rained a lot after which time it did fall out. I couldn't get it replaced for about a week and a half. It seemed rainy for that entire time when it was not raining much before it did fall out. Weird. Now that it has been replaced, it is clear and sunny. It would seem that my car is out to get me. I have to bring it in for servicing (a lot of servicing) tomorrow. Ha ha, i wonder if the car will start tomorrow? By the way, I named my car zippy. I have no reason to tell you that other than I felt like letting the forum know that i named my car zippy. All my cars have had names. My previous cars name was Mr. Skippers. :)
Why do random thoughts vacate my brain every time I visit this thread? :shrug:
Visiting the thread primes you to specifically conceive "random" thoughts suitable for posting, and so you concentrate on that task. However, the point of random thought is that they be serendipitous, and not specially formulated for an occasion. So it's like how thinking about how you would like to stop thinking about something only exacerbates the problem.
Anyway, here's a quote:

Then you just write down whatever comes into your mind, like for instance: would it be profitable to sell rotten tomatoes in a room that has Justin Bieber in it? How would Justin Beaber look with a beard? Could Gregoshi be a good bearded Justin Beaber look alike and would he like to become my partner in our new rotten tomatoes business. Also, will this solve all climate problems? And how the heck is that related to each other? Montmorency is crazy.
lol, I don't come here looking for things to post. I come here when I have already thought of something weird and feel like sharing it.
For instance, I just learned yesterday that driving a zero-turn mower is hard at first if you have never done it and no one has given you instruction on how to use it.
Thanks for the tips. I prefer my stimuli to be as randomly occurring as the random thought rather then forcing the issue - and the lack of randomly occurring stimuli has been the issue. Okay, here's one I remember from work the other day:
Is a pedicure a psychological treatment for a pedophile?* Or is a pedophile a tool used during a pedicure?**
* Is a pedometer used to measure the success of the pedicure?
** Or is a pedometer used to measure how many feet have been pedophiled?

Hmmmm Ouya it is I think http://www.eurogamer.net/articles/di...ry-ouya-review a completily open platform might just get the attention of the Indie scene who make the type of games I want to play, kinda desperate for the retro stuff that will probably appear on it, and you can keep upgrading it
I helped my sister move today. Up three flights of stairs with a myriad of heavy furniture. Tired. My father (who also helped) treated me to dinner afterwards though. I never knew a fried egg could be so good on a hamburger. The service was poor, but I met another point of interest to which I can focus my hands and perhaps grab.
Whoever knew starting work would be a boring experience...
why is it always a nice cup of tea???
Why do feel less drunk after an hour of sleep, I mean the alcohol is still there
Good thinking de moi. I came back from the supermarket right and there was this really cute really softspoken black girl who asked me for directions, obviously lost, she had to be at some sort of foundation I never heard of, but I know the street. Giving direction is a nightmare as I live in a maze of small streets and alleys and it all runs in circles, so I offered her to walk her a bit, my apartment is on route (which I forgot to mention). So I walked her a bit untill my home but opened my frontdoor first. She absolutily froze. I told her to head to the end of the street, and go to the right. I then realised I must have absolutily terrified her. Way to go. Apoligised for scaring her and continued with being an idiot.
Just now, I put a cup of plain no fat yogurt, some raw kale and a whole banana in my Ninja blender. Whipped it up and had the best meal EVER! Well, I have had better, but it was pretty good. I also bought a yogurt maker that heats the milk for you but it hasn't arrived yet. Veggie yogurt is quite good if you put something sweet in it to taste. Next time, I might try Kale and carrots plus the banana. Could be interesting. :D
We were thaught to respect old people, but I sometimes wonder, why do we have to respect somebody just because of their age? Getting old is just being lucky. We don't respect a guy who won in the casino or the lottery because he was lucky, so why do we have to respect old people just because they're old? Isn't that ageism? Aren't we all equal? Isn't everybody worthy of the same amount of respect? We frown upon considering someone of a certain race or a certain religion as superior, but for somebody who is of old age, we don't have a problem to bow our heads in respect? There are plenty of young or middle-aged people who already achieved a lot more that deserves respect than some old dude who was lucky enough not to die young. Also, old people do not have a monopoly on wisdom. On the contrary, I'd even dare to say that a child can hold far more wisdom, even if it is unintentional.
A recent visit to the movies gave me a good idea....
What if the seats were pressure triggered, and the input was sent to a display piece at the entrance of the movie theatre. Imagine walking into a theatre and having a LCD screen (or something) that told you how many seats were seats were available and where.
It would look something like this :

But think about the ushers!
What on earth is my generation going to say to their kids when they become teenagers? 15-25 years from now, those service jobs are going to be gone. All it takes is for some creative programmer to actually come up with a good UI and every cashier will be replaced with a touch screen. Why does anyone actually bother to go inside a bank nowadays? YOu can do it all at the ATM or your phone even.
Cheap TV's and plentiful programmers will be the death of the service industry and it's already happening. Get a job? Not until you get some sort of degree first.
FoxLeLay, me and my ancient BA know that all too well! Oh well, I do have something of a work history, it is just as old as my BA though. :/
I don't knock the ambitious, I just knock my luck or lack of ambition. Look at me, I ramble, I guess that just goes to show how much I used to daydream in class!
Going off to the theatre to see my biopic tonight!
I am getting the strange feeling someone is using my internet. Weird, it IS passwordprotected. ~:confused:
It's gotten to the point where I've spent the past 21 hours of 24 in bed.
:worried:
Well, back then I actually only needed 3-4 hours of sleep a day!
This is some sort of nihilistic psychosomatic pathology. I just might be super-:daisy:.
Why do I watch Dutch movies with English subtitles, I mean I am Dutch myself, English is just easier on the eyes for me than listening to my own language is for my ears
'Bob, this here car's gettin' too old. It's just plain unsafe to drive anymore, when the transmission's draggin' and the odometer's broken, when the steerin's as responsive as a water-craft's... Well - it's been a good run, but I s'pose it's time we went back to horse-drawn carriages...'
'Bill, why don't you just by a new car?'
'... Nah, s'too 'spensive. In fact, you've also got a car; why don't you send that old jalopy of yours to the junkyard and invest in the local horse farm with me?'
'Bill, my car is two years old, gets superb mileage while being big enough for my family, and...
'Even better!'
:freak:
I have discovered recently that I don't like being alone in the dark. The glow of the pc monitor is not enough. So, to remedy this problem, I sit with one colored light in a lamp and another paper lantern-like standing lamp has two candelabra style bulbs in it. All of the red variety. Very comfortable and relaxing. Makes for nice music, sleeping, vaping and some pc time. I plan to switch colors at some time, probably red or blue but that will be when one of the three red ones burn out. I would be nice for some formicary time as well but right now I only have Del to keep me company.
Why is it that I can forgive some people who have done extremely grievous wrongs to me, but not others who have done far more mild wrongs?
There is no greater relief than a visit to the toilet when waking up with severe pain in your belly. The pain just fades away with a concert that would shame every orchestra in the world. I should eat less meat but I like it so much.
Why do I like Father Elijah and Joshua Graham more than I like Colonel Shu or any one else in the NCR?
I have discovered that I need to have all my solid meals in liquid form. My beverages remain in liquid form unless I use ice.
I've never had banana juice. Does it even exist?
Talking about Flemish, it's still the best band ever, Vaya con Dios [url]http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=7LUm-E4GPU8[/ur]
Other cool one http://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=fvwrel&v=W6XnJNdm-8k
That doesn't mean they like us very much ;)
I don't blame them for it though, Drunk idiots who are all coked up is what they usually see comming from here.
It's as complicated as it is simple, the Netherlands had a catholic south and a protestant north, devided by the rivers that run through the middle of the Netherlands. It's a long history, look up the eighty-years war. How it was devided later isn't all that important
Is there anything except fruit that doesn't taste better with worcestershire-sause
I started watching the original Star Trek of Hulu recently. I think it is a great show. Definitely better than banana juice and couldn't be improved topped with Worcestershire sauce.
Bananas are a fruit, you just failed where no man has failed before.
I think he's talking about the show.
BTW, how do you make banana juice? I make banana shake with bananas and milk, but never made juice....
Am I missing something here..... :dizzy2:
I am finally going to pirate movies. DVD's get broken so easily, no hickups when they are on a USB-stick. Also no unskippable warnings gawd I hate these
If you travel to Calgary, Alberta in the next few days bring a raft :)

Where I am on the North Hill, is high and dry but the river was bursting its banks yesterday...
The public service has been amazing...although the policeman I met was a little "testy" about me ignoring the "tape" during my river stroll:laugh4:

I was looking up the book "Voting for Hitler and Stalin" on a certain site and one of the results was this book.
:grin:
Why the heck would God create me with a strong interest in tools and mechanical things, and then give me cronic tendinitis?
My housekeepster cleaning up my appartment https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...ps935afdd4.jpg
She's doing it all wrong.
She has her left wrist torqued. It needs to be straight, with the grip in the web of the hand. What she is doing puts lots of stress on the wrist and thumb, and will result in a less accurate shot. Also, she is gripping the string with all of her fingers and with her wrist seated. That is also bad form and will result in the string not traveling as straight upon release.
Did you have a nanny cam set up or something?
Nah took it with failpad. I got a really awesome housekeeper she's a riot to have around, kiss on forehead after laughs. And no I don't sleep with her before you ask
Well she is a whole lot of fun and upsetting her a bit is hilarious

Best housekeeper ever
I killed my fridge (and a lot of bottles) https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v...psdaafe936.jpg
Don't tell my mom, yes I had one too many
lmao!
Nothing sucks harder than a failpad 3, now it has forgotten how to recharge it simply doesn't recognise it's own stuff. Do NOT get a failpad they do not work
Where do you think it got that name?
Well I kinda made it up. But they just don't work. Using an ipad for very casual use is as usefull as squeezing a rock for lemonade. It's futile as It just doesn't works. That thing sucks harder than a black hole, friend of mine has and Android based tablet, and behold, I can use internet with it, not half of it doesn' work I can really watch things on it. Amazing.
