4 Million dollar questions

I have two...questions today really eating at my brain cells.

Question 1. (And I just need to get it off my chest before moving on)
Why would someone literally ridicule himself on a social network site in order to catch someone else's attention?
I mean, can u really be that desperate? Dude, nobody's a lollipop....quit the sucking.

Commenting on one thing is normal. Commenting and liking 2 or 3 things is still acceptable. But commenting and liking EVERYTHING the person posts....is synonym to despair! Ahum,....boy....the sink's full and the laundry's dirty. A.k.a. GET A JOB! It shouldn't be decent at all...it should just be a job....to get you off the internet.

Nope, didn't happen to me this time (and I'm grateful)....lucky dog! It just gotten to my attention...and I blogged about it. If it happened to me, I think I would have....uhm you know what, let's jump to the nxt question!

Question nr 2. Why would is it that we hide what we really feel for a certain person?
This question really popped up after a small convo with a friend.

Made me really ask myself whether all the people around me (atleast the most important ones) really know how I feel about them...
And I conclude,... they probably don't.
He doesn't know I love him so much it's almost uncontainable, she doesn't know an intense burst of hate wells up in me every now and then towards her, they don't know I'm tired of it all,  I'm sure she doesn't know how much I appreciate her, he doesn't know I think he can be a whiny cry baby at times....

Sigh...so many things to say, so little courage.

Cuz yes, I think that plays a cardinal role...COURAGE. We are afraid how the person will react, we don't really know if we SHOULD tell anything, a bunch of 'what  if's' pop u'p, our own head tells us to better shut up. And the heart reaffirms..."Yes keep it to yourself...to the grave". Lack of courage is not the only motive of course.... Nah I don't think it is.

But what if it didn't really matter? What if you could tell me straight up to my face what you really feel for me..without the occurence of something awkward or dreadful? Without all the masquerade and all? What if the standards of the world didn't matter? What if my reaction to your confession wouldn't be that frightening for a moment? What if my ears could hear you say it and my eyes could watch as the words dance out of your lips. What if you gained all the courage in the world....would you tell me? Would you tell me the truth?

I would....but if I only had the courage!

1 Chronicle # 4; How'd u call that again?

Words are a cardinal mean of communication, Right?


 If we had to rely on just humming and sign-language I guess communication would have been awfully frustrating!
Or maybe, we wouldn’t know that there is something to call ‘a word’, so the humming and the sign-language wouldn’t sound irritating at all.


But aside of all this “communication-talk” did you notice how word usage become more and more interesting with time? We sometimes choose words that…uhm…do not have any other meaning but to replace what would otherwise be an awkward silence. Sometimes we make up our own macaronic language…or perhaps someone once played with words and used whatever came out…and thus, a word was born.


For example, a nonsensical filling word we use in Papiamentu is, ‘awel si’(lit. well yea). Like, when someone tells you “I can’t quite understand why I can’t figure this out” and you just don’t feel like starting a conversation, you just answer “awel si” and leave it to that. Makes no sense when you think about it really…


“meh” is one of the common  sonsensical words in English, an expression of boredom or indifference. Used in cartoons like,…The Simpsons; integrated in the 2009 edition of Collins English Dictionary as being an actual word. What exactly is a “meh” other than the sound that goats make?

And if you browse to urbandictionary.com you’ll find a wide variation to choose from…like,

·         Boolame (Possessing an above average lameness

·         Bunkus (which stands for nonsensical itself)

·         SNUH

·         Dumbified (feeling less smart, becoming dumber due to some experience or event)

·         Zenergy ( a combination of the words “Zen” and “energy”

·         Goshemel (an acronym for goat, sheep & camel)

·         Macram (a common name for stupid people and people who try to be cool and fail

·         Dystextia

·         And a lot of other strange words I personally found hilarious

Well it seems that nonsensicality is IN…  go see for yourself on the web!


And to top it off I just used nonsensical words myself and totally enjoyed the bunkus of it! My colleague stretched out and her belly was showing…I just had to tell her that her “whatchamacallitagain” was showing. (face palm)


Don’t you just love nonsense sometimes… LOL
