Rejection

Perhaps you need a crash course in taking hints. Here's your first lesson: We're not actually walking somewhere together; I'm trying to leave this conversation and you're following me.

LE RISPOSTE A TUTTE LE DOMANDE CHE NON CONTANO

by noreply@blogger.com (Smeriglia)
Si può morire mangiando mascarpone scaduto?

Sì, basta buttarsi dal decimo piano mangiando mascarpone scaduto.

Perché non tutte le scimmie sono uomini?

Alcune sono donne.

Qual è il significato del numero sette?

In certe culture è usato per indicare la metà di quattordici.

Sulle navi da crociera vendono le sigarette?

Certo, ma è molto più comodo comprarle sotto casa.

Come cucinare i campanelli?

Mescolare in una ciotola cento grammi di farina, sale, due tuorli d’uovo e mezzo bicchiere di latte. Amalgamare il tutto fino a ottenere una pastella fluida. Lavare i campanelli e asciugarli delicatamente facendo attenzione a non romperli. Montare a neve gli albumi, versarli nella ciotola e immergere i campanelli nella pastella. Scaldare l’olio e farli dorare: devono risultare molto croccanti. Quindi asciugare l’eccesso d’olio, aggiungere sale quanto basta e gettare tutto nell’immondizia.

Perché a Newton finiva sempre il cibo negli occhi?

Era prima che scoprisse la legge di gravità.

Come fa il computer a indovinare quello che penso?

Come fare per sembrare più vecchi?

Jacques Prévert era omosessuale?

Stava con un uomo, ma era convinto che fosse una donna.

Come si chiama la verdura che non si rade mai?

Peperone, per esempio.

Le scimmie hanno il pollice opponibile?

Ne hanno addirittura quattro.

Quali sigarette fanno più male?

Quelle verdi a forma di spirale.

Si può vivere felici senza Yahoo Answers?

Spero sia una domanda retorica.

From the Northern to the Southern Cross

From the Northern to the Southern Cross
There is a road that connects the Northern to the Southern Cross but you have to be at the right place and time to see it. The road, as pictured above, is actually the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy; the right place, in this case, is dark Laguna Cejar in Salar de Atacama of Northern Chile; and the right time was in early October, just after sunset. Many sky wonders were captured then, including the bright Moon, inside the Milky Way arch; Venus, just above the Moon; Saturn and Mercury, just below the Moon; the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds satellite galaxies, on the far left; red airglow near the horizon on the image left; and the lights of small towns at several locations across the horizon. One might guess that composing this 30-image panorama would have been a serene experience, but for that one would have required earplugs to ignore the continued brays of wild donkeys.

Those Who Can’t Do

muahahahha

That logic doesn't bode well for Life Coaches.

Do you know my favorite sign around airport security? It’s the one that says something along the lines of “Making jokes about bombs will be taken seriously, and will come with severe criminal charges.” That’s right, there are places in the US where jokes are actually illegal.

Someday I’m going to come up with a few one-liners about bombs (“What’s the deal with atom bombs! They sure are a lot bigger than an atom!”)* and then ta-da! I’ll be jailed as a political prisoner. I’ll be a poster child for free speech, complete with a book tour, pundit talk show appearances, and a biopic starring Daniel Day-Lewis. I’ll be a HERO.

I just hope no Awkward Dads beat me to it by saying, “Har har! Did you find my C4 yet?” during a patdown.

*Hey, I didn’t say the joke would be good.

Let Them Eat Cake

number 3 is awesome!

French monarchy would still be in power if they had better caterers.

Everyone loves a great dessert, so I’m going to share something with you. It’s an old recipe for my famous comfort cookies. Friends and family go wild for these things. It’s a secret recipe, which means you should keep it to yourself and not post it where anyone can find it, like a bathroom wall or the internet. Give it a shot!

World Famous Comfort Cookies

Ingredients:
- 2 Cups Flour
- 1 Package Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Pen and paper

1. Preheat your apartment to 350 degrees.

2. You now have 3-5 minutes to live. Resist the impossibly sweltering heat long enough to spread the flour over the kitchen table.

3. Look at the patterns created by your sweat falling into the flour. In your heat-induced hallucinations you may see either an angel or a devil, depending on how you’ve lived your life. No one has ever seen an angel.

4. In your final moments of lucidity, use the pen and paper to write a note to your loved ones.

5. Die.

There you go! No dessert is sweeter than the closure of heartfelt final words. When your loved ones find your body they can comfort themselves with the chocolate chip cookies (if they haven’t burned to a crisp).

Improved Keyboard

I'm always installing tons of weird experimental keyboards because it serves as a good reminder that nothing I was going to type was really worth the trouble.
