CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm a very big fan of experiencing new places, and old places in a new light. I like to have relaxing nights with friends, or going out on the town. Typically I am very get-alongable.... and I typically make up words when it suits me. Anything else you want to know about me, feel free to ask.

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness

Alternatively,

A 3 AM rant:

I think that people should use tummys as drums more... they make such interesting musical instruments. As well as other parts of the human body. so underappreciated...
tummy drums? we could call them drummys! (copyright pending).

I wonder if it'd be possible to patent the human body.. it's an invention of nature... or god... but neither of them took a patent out on it. and with the birthrates today, you could make craploads of money. just hand in an anatomy textbook as the schematics. do you think that you'd have to come up with different patents for babies and adults, or would one patent cover it all?

What about copyrighting random words in the english language? If donald trump can take "you're fired," why can't I take "the?"

I wonder if anything is going to be greater than sliced bread... everything's the greatest thing SINCE sliced bread, but no one ever says that it's BETTER than sliced bread. If we get magical devices that can cure all the diseases in the world, and people will say "wow, that's the greatest thing since sliced bread!" and then we come up with another machine that can regulate the population (humanely) and solve world hunger and ensure world peace... would it then be the greatest thing since sliced bread, or since the magic medical machine (or the MaMeMa...... copyright pending)?
