early one morning in the middle of the night
two dead boys got up to fight
back to back they faced each other
drew their knives and stabbed each other
a deaf policeman heard the noise
and went and killed the two dead boys

there are some amazing people who actually contradict themselves in the things they say, often without knowing it. such people will probably not win many debates. they will insist that the world is round and it is also flat at the same time. using some arcane system of logic, that might actually be true, but that doesn't make it any easier to swallow. hypotheses are tested by taking sides, not by taking all sides. the only thing certain at that point would be confusion. therefore, let us make changes so things stay the same forever, for the time being (sic)

kasi masaya maging contradictory. pansinin mo ganun naman talaga ang mundo eh, it contradicts itself. mahirap sukatin consistency. basta ang alam ko I miss the 90's music scene.

the world is that way because it is the way it is. humans should try to do a better job than the world. for example, parents who want you to be both smart and then resent you for it aren't much fun, are they?

haha, yun nga paniniwala ko. humans should strive to be better than the rest of the world. pero minsan mahirap gawin yun if you don't have connections or support, especially from said parents. ehem. pakamatay na lang tayo. or kumain (may tomang kasama!) hanggang masuka-suka if we can't afford permanent surrender just yet.
