tumblr wasteland.

with my recent jump into twitter, i feel like this tumblr has become somewhat of a wasteland of easy posts.  videos, reblogs, etc.  i do like having a repository for stuff that i like on the internet, but my goal with this thing was always to push myself to actually write things, even if they were short and stupid and thats not what most people use tumblr for.

so, i’m making my declaration to post more a public thing because when i keep things to myself, they never happen.

with that, here are some recent thoughts i’ve had:

  • who invented the sofa bed?
  • i’m a sucker for a good pun.  or even a bad puns.  are all puns bad?  maybe.  i still like them.
  • in a related note, one of my favorite things about posting on tumblr is coming up with a pun for the title.
  • diet soda is like experimental music; it takes a while to get into, but once you’re in it tastes pretty good.  but the sugar soda is still easier to drink.
  • i may twitter all of these things.  don’t be surprised if they show up there soon.

“ The notion of conscious will is an illusion. We make up stories that make us feel good about the decisions we make, but we’re not nearly as in charge as we think we are.

“ I wanna start a tattoo place that only does the Kanji symbol for “Regret.” Only we insist it says “Zen” and makes you seem complex and wise.
Another gem from @hotdogsladies [Merlin Mann.]  I don’t know how he keeps the quips coming.
