The Mayonnaise Jar and Two Cups of Coffee
When things in your lives seem almost too much to handle, when 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 cups of coffee.
A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him. When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls. He then asked the students if the jar...
Life choices would be so much easier to make if they came with a score based on Potential-to-Bring-Happiness.
Then again, it would make life oh-so-boring.

Every time I have a play date with a friend’s toddler, I end up bed-ridden-can’t-remember-my-last-48-hours type of sick. Something to look forward to when I get to the next stage in life…
Maybe I should stop letting them feed me misc food items summoned from goodness knows where…

I love making everyone around me eat garlic knots; that way we are collectively immune to the after-stench.

Are people seriously complaining about Lenny Kravitz, Amandla Stenberg, Dayo Okeniyi portraying characters in Hunter Games because they are…BLACK?! The idiocy is mind-numbingly atrocious.
Some were quoted to have even said that the casting of these characters “ruined the movie.” How about this: YOUR RACISM RUINS HUMANKIND.
Thank you; That is all.
At what point did we get so afraid of falling?
If the world truly was ending in 2012, whom would you reconcile with? Whom would you spend the rest of your days with? Would would you have accomplished by then?

WatchMy co-worker called me “Knives” and told me to watch this movie. LMAO.
Anyhow, favorite scene: Clash at Demonhead - Black Sheep (orig. by Metric)
We run around telling ourselves to find someone who loves us for who we are, but on the same note, secretly hope that we can change the other person to our liking. Their behavior will alter if they love you enough to sacrifice, but their values and their personalities will not. Food for thought.
Dear Mother Nature,
I really appreciate the warm, balmy weather in March. But there is no need to create heavy gusts to throw the whip cream off my coffee onto my face. Thanks for the reminder that you are all-powerful anyway.

I want nothing more than to sit on a floor cushion next to one of those old-school radiators and read a good book

Can people please stop saying “nom nom noms”?! it’s HELLA annoying. Oh yeah, stop saying “hella” also.
Common pitfall: Women are so concerned with appreciating themselves these days, they forget to appreciate the people around them.
Witnessed: a couple of drunks telling each other sob stories in a failed attempt at making each other feel better. One of the most depressing things I have ever experienced personally.

Still haven’t perfected the skill of listening to my first instincts. Seems like the process is as slow as iOS’s boot rate.

I might feel busy a lot. I may feel overwhelmed by the many different options I have to choose from. But that’s just life reminding me of how lucky I am.

If it takes just as long to type in ‘baby talk’ as it does to write properly, why bother annoying the cyber world?

I find teeth-sucking more revolting than nose-picking on the train. At least if I move, I can get out of range of boogers being flicked every which way. If I move away from a teeth-sucker, I just get more irritated that I STILL can hear her.
