The wry smile thread


Walsingham

Recommended Posts

I thought we could use a thread for things that make us smile wryly and shake our head, rather than guffaw.

 

I smile wryly and shake my head when I ask Youtube for Joni Mitchell, and in the trail it shows me Nicki Minaj...

This usually occurs whenever my spouse says something about him not porking out on the pizza this time. :biggrin:

Lines and quotes that I stumble upon as I wander around on the internet...

 

“My experience of life is that it is not divided up into genres; it’s a horrifying, romantic, tragic, comical, science-fiction cowboy detective novel. You know, with a bit of pornography if you're lucky.”

 

"She was as welcoming as the local gestapo..."

 

"Toykyo, Shibuya - Where Rule 34 leaves the Internet and Reaches the Real World"

 

"Remember kids, you HAVE to follow your dreams. Because, well, otherwise... you could end up just like your parents and how frakked up would that be??"

 

"Whoever says I'm an autocrat is clearly mistaken. I represent the height of representative democracy where everyone gets a vote. Mine just counts for more than all the other ones combined, when you read the final tally, that's all."

 

"That's the beauty of democracy. If you can get everyone busy enough voting they will never see what it is you are really trying to do...."

 

"Almighty God, please make me pass my exams. I know you didn't do anything to stop the holocaust, but I really want these qualifications."

 

"If militant religions force you to worship at gunpoint, what does a militant aethiest do? run into a church with a gun and tell you not to pray? or going door to door and irritating people watching Wimbledon, by quoting Richard Dawkins and handing out blank pamphlets?"

"Cuius testiculos habeas, habeas cardia et cerebellum."

@ Walsie
Life is not about smiling especially when we have so much global political developments to discuss

 

" I slept and dreamt that life was beauty but then woke and realized that life was duty "

 

 

 

:biggrin:  :biggrin:

"Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss”

John Milton 

"We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” -  George Bernard Shaw

"What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived. It is what difference we have made to the lives of others that will determine the significance of the life we lead" - Nelson Mandela
