TET: Princes of the Universe

'

I got lost at "half naked man" ....

PUNK!

Yes, well, I got dispatched to go pick up someone and he came running from the house wearing nothing but a pair of basketball shorts and carrying a whole stick of bologna. He had me take him across town to a friend's house for some emergency, with the friend paying for the trip. I still have no idea what to make of all that.

Squeeeee!! *glomp*

Holy shit though dude. What drugs do you think were involved? Half naked sounds like meth, bologna emergency sounds like alcohol. Oh wait... *looks at phone* ohhh... it's Friday night. All of the above, huh?

And did the friend actually freaking pay? That might be the strangest part of the entire story dude.

Yeah, the friend paid. I'm still trying to come up with some logic for an emergency bologna delivery at midnight.

[Punkvania]

Yeah, the friend paid. I'm still trying to come up with some logic for an emergency bologna delivery at midnight.

Was he like obviously distraught and in a hurry? I mean... I can't wrap my head around that either. I immediately thought of the shape of a stick of bologna and thought it might be needed as a weapon. Or as.... oh shit is my mind in the gutter again?

I like your mind in the gutter.

Seriously, though, I haven't a single clue. I mean, I've seen a lot of crazy things as a cab driver, but this is up there. Perhaps there is something more carnal going on there. Hmmmm.....

I've been taking more cab rides recently around town and I thought of you when I started acting strange with some of the drivers. We talked before about how I enjoy conversing with drivers and all, but there was this one dude who really annoyed me. He kept asking if I was going to some dumb concert downtown and if I was into some dumb tv shows. So I told him this story about how my grandmother had just committed suicide and I was returning her ashes to her old house because she wanted to be scattered there. The only problem was there were new owners. So I was planning on breaking in and doing it quickly. I asked if he'd stick around for five minutes as a lookout. He was obviously weirded out and wanted no part in it. He dropped me at my friend's house and left really fast. I'm such a dick haha.

Heh, yeah, that would make me uncomfortable.

[Punkvania]

RIGHT? I mean who watches primetime television aside from.... oh, you meant what I said. Well to be honest I felt a little bad afterward. But hey if I gave that guy an awesome story to tell so be it. Gotta liven things up sometimes. I just wonder what the conversation will be like if he happens to drive me again :^P

He might be slightly less talkative next time

Daim muffin. 9/10 would eat again.

Must be one good muffin

It sure was. Too bad they are 2€ each...
I can get FOUR Lidl muffins for the same price. They're not even half as delicious though

[Toronina]

Thinking of making a new TET pantheon, who likes that idea?

[Cadonica]

Just realized that I swing a lot between misanthrope and philanthrope

Not sure I understand this

Sometimes I hate humankind and want to be alone and detached as much as possible and think that the rest of people can go die as far as I could care. And sometimes I'm like yay, humankind is so good and worth my time and help and I donate in charities and such. Then I see some negative news and go all "Fuck this shit".

Short version: Sometimes I hate people, sometimes I love them.

Negative forces tend to be loud-mouthed for maximum irritation. But remember, those bastards are the minority. Even in NationStates General.

True. But still, even one murder, rape, beating or hate crime is one too much... And when I say beating I don't mean brotherly fight of two drunk guys who laugh at it afterwards

I'm just too hippy person

Reminds me of that documentary of Finnish men and their saunas I once saw. Apparently the sauna is where many Finnish men open up emotionally.

Some times I wonder whats wrong with the world

Saunas, all of the places

Or both

Oh, that's simple. Evolution doesn't go for perfection, since it is not a conscious process. If it works, it stays. Hence the rise of a certain primate that figured out things such as advanced tools and written language. The latter is very important, since we are pretty much the only species who is capable of storing more information than our feeble minds can hold. It really helped to advance our civilizations, but unfortunately it also did wonders for the 'improvement' of our armed conflicts, violent as we are. Also we are pretty good at holding grudges for generations. You won't find that kind of crap in the animal kingdom to that extent.

According to The Selfish Gene, the continued survival of replicator molecules called genes by making sure the lifeforms those replicators use keep procreating. It's been going on for a few billion years, which resulted in quite the variety of life. An amazing process, really.
