Kibbles and Bits

Old timers:

Though I referenced it recently, it feels all too long since I last spoke on the topic of women. And as my loyal listeners know, I adapt and grow in a cyclical cycle often revisiting things to re-decide what I think and feel about them as I change and grow as a person. So the clock has made its way around again and once again I evaluate women. This time, I believe I shall once again (as I have done for stints in the past) renounce pursuing a relationship at this time. Logically I need to really get my life on track these next few years, and the best time to decide where I need to live and what my job will be is now while I have no relationship to bog down this choice. Additionally I have been receiving advice to this effect by those older and wiser than myself. I need to realize that a relationship won't fix me, it won't make me feel better, it will just be an emotional escape. I need to own up to fixing myself and learning to cheer myself up. It is my decision to have a bad or a good day, no other should bear that burden. Rather a relationship should be like a friend you share life with, someone who is there, not to make you feel better, and not for you to carry, but because you and them choose to be there and go through life's adventures and tragedies together. Until I understand that in my head and my heart I am unfit for dating or complaining about women (it probably wont stop me from doing the latter though).


My dear, it just doesn't sound good on you..

I have always believed that although sometimes good for making a strong exclamation or emphasizing a particular point, curse words are little more than a fool's crutch for the precise words they simply could not find within their own limited vocabulary. If one person truly did want to curse at another, why not go back in time and once again get original with personal curses? Tell someone that you wish that rather than children, they give birth to dogs or heck porcupines, instead of sending a string of the same handful of words some guys way why not tell him to die in a fire, or wish his job to transfer him to Siberia or Abu Dhabi... Bring the fun and originality back into cursing, do it for me.

I got served:

... So while discussing roofies and getting women drunk I came up with a cheaper way to have my way. Namely just be myself, as that is both cheap and gets the job done. To which a female friend who shall remain unnamed responded "... well that does put them to sleep, but they will wake up when you start giving it to them..." And thusly I have been served.

On my mind:

All week I've been trying to figure out where I heard it. I had part of a quote stuck in my head and couldn't for the life of me remember where it came from. I ended up narrowing it down to being a movie, but was stuck there for days. What I remembered was, "...You don't trust me, do you... I don't blame you..." I knew it was from somewhere and I thought it was said by one main character to another, the speaker being ominous yet good and the recipient being good but distrusting. Today I finally nailed it, Star Trek VI, The Undiscovered Country. The full quote is as follows: "You don't trust me, do you? I don't blame you. If there is to be a brave new world, our generation is going to have the hardest time living in it." These are good words. Though I feel they apply to me, I believe they also apply to my generation, we are on the verge of a new phase in history, but will we repeat the mistakes of the past? Have we grown up too jaded to try? What will become of the future? I guess it is in our hands, after all, "Some people think the future means the end of history. They're wrong. We haven't run out of history quite yet."
