Career change: Being in your 30s and not wanting to work in the for which you prepared is like realizing you built your entire skill tree wrong in an RPG

In video game boss fights, they see you as a serial killer

The entire purpose of a bayonet is to bring a knife to a gunfight

The animal actors in theme parks are just paid furries

They just need to put all the dating apps on one app and just call it “What’s left”

Tonight, the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it’s better this way
We’d hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
But now, who’s gonna dance with me?

And on most nights when you are bored and so full on ennui
You cannot even summon the enthusiasm necessary to masturbate

Each man must start with himself and within himself by slowly forging his Chi: The bond between the finite and the infinite, the inner essence of his spirit and the limitless power of the universe. Only then can you conquer the power and the presence of evil.

You’re traveling through another dimension — a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That’s a signpost up ahead: your next stop: the Twilight Zone!

You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension: a dimension of sound, a dimension of sight, a dimension of mind. You’re moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You’ve just crossed over into… the Twilight Zone.

There is a fifth dimension beyond that which is known to man. It is a dimension as vast as space and as timeless as infinity. It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man’s fears and the summit of his knowledge. This is the dimension of imagination. It is an area which we call “The Twilight Zone”.

The English author, George Bernhard Shaw, once had a fine lady at his table.
“Would they sleep with a man for £20,000,” asked the old man – and that was a lot of money back then.
The lady giggled, “It really depends on what he looks like.”
“Would they do it for twenty pounds?,” continued the old man.
Then she got angry: “What do they think I am?!”.
“We have settled that question,” said Bernhard Shaw “Now we are just discussing the price.”

And the middle course seems a little tame
Whether full or empty it’s all the same
It’s so easy to see, everyone can agree, you’re not to blame

Simply… Steven Wright

I was walking down the street and the prescription in my glasses ran out.
I think it’s wrong that only one company makes the game Monopoly
I have the world’s oldest globe. It’s flat.
You know, if heat rises, then heaven might be hotter than hell.
I finally got around to reading the dictionary. Turns out the zebra did it.

“You know when you’re sitting on a chair and you lean back so you’re just on two legs and you lean too far so you almost fall over but at the last second you catch yourself? I feel like that all the time…”
― Steven Wright

“He was a multi-millionaire… Wanna know how he made all of his money? … He designed the little diagrams that tell which way to put batteries in…”
“When I was little, my grandfather used to make me stand in a closet for 5 minutes without moving. He said it was elevator practice.”

You read the Bible, Brett? There’s a passage I have memorized. Sort of fits the occasion:

That he didn’t didn’t already have

Can you catch a medicine ball?
Can you catch yourself when you fall?
You should be careful, do you catch my drift?

I always like this story about when Sting, Stuart, and Andy was meeting up with the Rolling Stones
and Keith Richard’s is doing lines off a big mirror. 
Charlie Watts walked in and says: “Hey Keith, the Police are here…”
Keith panicked and flushed all the Coke down the toilet, not realizing he meant the band.

All those who chose to oppose his shield must yield
If he’s lead to a fight and a duel is due
Then the red and the white and the blue’ll come through

Terrence Stamp:

So you are a general.

You are not the President. No one who leads so many could possibly kneel so quickly.

And on most nights, you’re so bored and filled with ennui, you cannot even summon the enthusiasm necessary to masturbate. Am I right Carl?

You’re a two-bit pirate and green mailer. Nothing more Gekko. Not only would you sell your mother to make a deal, you’d send her COD.
