This is on life is wonderfully ridiculous by Claude Knobler.
What are the things that make you happy in life? What are the things that make you like something? In my experience it has been the ridiculous stuff.
Knobler and I have some things in common; our goals are ridiculous. At the moment my three life goals are a. get into a college with my major (this is reasonable since there are only 2 in the state), learn the whole thriller dance, and go to disney world (it's the most magical place in the world). My reason is simple, these things would make me extremely happy.
If you think about, without the ridiculous life would be boring. Lots of art, music, and tv shows are based on the ridiculous. When I first heard what Twilight was about, I thought "well that's ridiculous" (no joke). But when I decided to read it I ended up addicted to the series like thousands of other people. Without the ridiculous, life would be a beige, saltine, kind of world.

ReplyDeleteYou forgot your most ridiculous goal of all-a perfect imitation of Slash from Guns n' Roses. Why is that ridiculous? Because you would be by me, doing my perfect imitation of Axl, and we all know Axl is an attention hog. Good luck with your ridiculous goals you ridiculous girl.
And Twilight is the bomb-you're welcome for the brief summary and the "you should read this book" beating i gave you.
