You’ll Thank Me When You’re Older

Does this ever happen? Does the arrogance we hold over children ever become appreciated once the child is older. Here's what it comes down to. We want kids to understand that with age, comes wisdom, right? So, how do you get the child to understand this and willingly start to give you the benefit of the doubt. I have an idea. Ask the child if they're smarter now than they were last year. Then say that you've been getting smarter for the past X years. Kids are smart. They might make the connection.

White Snoise

Does the sound of snoring actually act as white noise to the snorer? If so, then I'm not irritating my wife, I'm just being clever.

Putting Claps in a Song is Cheating

It's like a laugh track in a sitcom. Clapping is contagious. It's hard not to like a song that people are clapping to. I'm going to put constant syncopated clapping in EVERY song on my next record. Even if people hate it, they'll have no choice but to listen.

Happyish

We pursue things that others have (jobs, families, possessions, etc.) to make us happy that are not making those people happy. So, is no one happy? Well, we can not compare happiness, because no one can truly understand how someone else is feeling. So, instead we compare circumstances. If my circumstances are better, I must be happier. That is our problem.

Celebrate America, Not Apathy

Apathy kills more Americans every year than heart disease. It causes people to avoid entering into relationships out of fear. Staying in bad relationships out of fear. Don't sit still. Enjoy your America Day. Be Free.

Smart is Evil

There's a recent trend with some white-collar businesses who are installing really nice kitchens and break rooms in their offices with giant plasma TVs. I was talking with one of my friends about that, and his reply was, "yeah, that's awesome, my workplace sucks." Then I explained that the reason for these businesses doing these things is that the business wants to make their employees feel as comfortable as they can at the office so they don't feel like they have to run out the door at 5 sharp. Maybe they'll take a break, make some dinner, watch some TV, and then get a couple more hours of work done. His reply, "That's evil." I guess it would be evil if the employees were slaves. But, the business is trying to figure out a mutually-beneficial partnership that allows the worker to enjoy his job more while getting more value out of the worker at the same time. Nothing is coerced. Both sides like the results. How can that be evil?
