Life has a lot of meaning!

Therefore the meaning of life must be "A lot"! B) BOOM! Just solved the meaning of life. So! One day you will die, you need to live with it. You can't change that fact, you can only choose how you live. I for one want to have kids and just generally live a fun life before I go.

How great is that? Good perspective on life's problems.
No matter how difficult it is now, you're still alive!
So muddle through the hard times as best you can.

Try to make it interesting and do fun things while you're here won't you? Take some risks for what you want, don't be fearful or hesitant. It's really a shame to waste a good thing. Now when I say that "Life has a lot of meaning", it is really just my personal opinion... Your personal opinion may differ from mine but since you only get one life in your whole lifetime you shouldn't let it go without a fight, you shouldn't take one from someone else, and you should never give it away. In my humble opinion.

For a long while now I've pondered on my mortality and morality, I hate to lie or cheat or steal. If I went against my morality, will that weigh on my conscience for the remainder of my mortal life? They are definitely linked, and not just by 8 letters... Essentially my happiness is directly proportional to my morality because it's just so hard to be happy when you're unfaithful to yourself. I don't want a guilty conscience for even a day. I wonder if other people think about that in the same way?

Clearly not everybody does, since prisons exist and people are so often just nasty for no good reason. In a perfect world they'd all understand what they're doing to others.

Crime and questions

I wonder what is truly right and wrong in the greater scheme of things. Does a bad deed make you a bad person? I don't know, it seems to be such a grey area. Is it wrong to take one life in order to save another? I mean yes it sounds wrong to me, but if you take a life to save your own... Leaving aside human laws and religious input, how would you define good and evil? Perhaps an evil deed in your eyes is fueled solely by naivety in the perpetrator.

Then is naivety evil? Is it forgivable if you something breaks but unforgivable if a person dies because of it? So many questions. I'll get back to them later! Too much thinking, it's making my brain hurt. Well, that's me for today. Stay sane!

Cats kill? Can't complain.

This morning I found a present in the bathroom, un-wrapped! Cats are sloppy when it comes to giving Christmas presents.

Firstly. It's mid-November. What the hell, cat! You're a month too early.
Secondly. You couldn't find some wrapping paper to keep the gift in!?
Thirdly. Consumables should be acquired close to the date, or kept in the freezer or fridge so that they don't spoil. Not the bathroom floor...
Fourthly. I don't want a dead bird, none of the humans want a dead bird. We'd be happier with a dead rat or a Parktown Prawn's legs.

So please, cats, put some thought into your little gifts - and just don't. It's better if you just don't. For all our sake's and the tiny animal kingdom, you'd be doing us a favour if you don't kill most of those little critters. Especially the winged ones!

On the topic of dangerous creatures:

Killer Copper Cars

BEWARE!

I know what you're thinking. "What? Cars aren't sentient! You're full of nonsense!"

Cars that look like this! BEWARE!

You're only half wrong. Cars can be sentient! I've beheld this with my minds eye, they take on a will of their own... Like Transformers! But with less of the 'All Spark' and more of the 'Grudges of a thousand Souls wrongly accused in the past!'. So be careful fellow drivers, they look just like cop cars. They flash their flashy blue and red lights with their sirens on and indicate for you to pull over. When you've parked on the side of the road they turn off the sirens and lights and lie in wait... Slowly your impatience grows, until you decide it was some kind of mistake. But as soon as you start driving-BEE-BOO-BEE-BOO!!! So you pull back to the side and wait. When you've finally gotten irritated enough that you get out of the car to ask them what they want with you, BAM! Hit-and-run. So please. PLEASE! Don't step out of the vehicle, it's safe in there. Cop cars are evil and filled with malice. Don't become a victim of Authoritayis-vehiculeious murder. Be cautious of the authoritay.

Stay safe folks!

Bunnies, the more-or-less true facts.

The truth about the secret lives of Bunnies

The name "Bunnies", taken from the Spanish, Latin, Japanese and English phrase: "Timetus Mortem de la Muerte Shinu DIE DIE DIE!" are well known for their unnecessarily vicious nature. As a merciless hunting tactic they feign weakness in the face of predators. These predators will normally get them confused with Wabbits, the perfectly harmless and vegan sub-species of Bunnies.

Bunnies are notorious for their vicious hawk-like talons, razor sharp fangs and fluffy multi-coloured fur of death (from white to pitch black and all those colours in-between. Including but not limited to; brown, light brown, dark brown and cream. And red. But only when bathing in the blood of their victims...). They never back down from a fight! Slaying lions, birds of prey and game hunters by the thousands every year...

Not a real picture of a Bunny -

since no-one has lived to tell the tale
after encountering these vicious beasties.

HAPPY EASTER!

And happy birthday my dear sister Kathryn! Have a great 20th birthday! I love you SO much!

P.S. It's not actually Easter... Sorry if you got excited.

P.S. for the first P.S. Sorry if the realisation that Easter is not upon us has caused you a great deal of stress, for ways to handle that stress please refer to my next blog post entitled: "STRESS!!!" which will be available to read tomorrow. Just bear it until then...

For more information on Bunnies and how to avoid certain death in their presence, please ask in the comments. Disclaimer: Avoiding certain death is not a possibility when in the presence of Bunnies, they will destroy you without fail. I would recommend dropping dead quickly and painlessly, because they will want make you suffer. They are evil.

I would like to do requests as well, please place the name of any animal which you'd like to know more about in the comments. I will consider them! If they are in fact boring animals that are not worth my time, I will most likely not write a post about them.

Yours truly
Brother Man

Happy heritage day

Wave a flag and
do it for your country!

Heritage day, braai day... Happy Holiday!

I hope you have the loveliest holiday my loveliest readers, try to do lovely family stuff! I'm going to my cousin's house later today for family fun time.

The Ad ordeal!

So it turns out I need a bunch of things to get approval for adverts. Who knew it was so complicated?

1. A privacy policy! (Which I did, it's right there at the top of my page. Read about your privacy on my page! Go on, click on it. Just do it, you know you want to...)
2. An "About us" page! I don't have anybody writing with me, so it's an "About me" page. Click on that too!
3. A "Contact us" page. Once again, only me! So... You know the deal, click it!
4. Interesting, useful content... Hm... That's up to my readers to decide! So? Do you enjoy reading my blog? Does it interest you? Why do you read on? Answer these questions and more in the comments below! Please, I'm desperate for feedback XD
5. Actually I know it's good. I'm not just patting myself on the back here, I'd read my blog. It has all the stuff I find interesting, it's a match made in heaven!
6. I need a unique URL. But... But why? What's that all about? I happen to think "Blogspot" looks very professional! Meh, I'll figure it out. I have lots of helpful people that want to help me in helpful ways, thanks guys :)



Yet...

7. Lastly (if I haven't forgotten anything), I'm told that I should have at least 50 posts on my page. 50, 15, sounds close enough! And my posts need to average on at least 200 words. I only have one that doesn't, and that would be my "How long is a blog post?" post. It only had roughly 150 words! Gasp, so few! Honestly, I don't know how I kept myself from writing more. I suppose I was just stubbornly sticking to my short topic that time. And that doesn't happen often!

Anyways, you don't need to worry about ads on this post for a while. At least not until I get my blogging life in order! Hehehe :P

A night on the town

Yesterday my friend, Mr C, took me to Fordsburg to try and find a really cool knife that he told me about. A pocket knife the size of a credit card, and it even has a ruler! Pretty cool sounding knife! So we drove there after work but alas, we were too late... That vendor had packed up and left. So instead we went to eat pizza at Pizza Hut! We each had a large pepperoni pizza and half of an unholy chocolate pizza. The stuff of nightmares I tell you, it was tiny and deadly! Terrible chocolaty death...

So great!

The Pizza hut! Why it's shaped like a UFO, God only knows...

We shared laughs, pizza, and above all we had a good time. I loved the cashiers reaction when we made the order, she asked: "So you're having an entire large pizza each... AND a chocolate pizza!?" to which I calmly replied "Yes, thank you." And for the order, I gave her the name... Benjaman XD It was funny for me, I don't think she noticed anything out of the ordinary though...

Happy holiday-ing kind reader

Bye bye

Benjaaay!
