Bothered by my inability to accept another for who he was, I asked a friend if he himself ever had problems with people. As far as I was concerned, this friend was well-liked, amiable, and friendly; and if there was anyone who would be accepting of people in general, it would be him. To my... Continue Reading →
Powerless Computing
As it just so happened, I forgot to bring my Mac's power adapter, and was thus left without a computer for the past week or so. What a pity, for I'm in love more than ever.
The Guru
The self-help guru walked up to me and asked, “what would you do if you could do anything, anything at all, and knew you couldn’t fail?” I looked at him, thought for a bit, and shrugged. “How can you not know?” he asked. “What would you do if you knew you couldn’t fail?” My face...

Fart in the Shower
