This is nothing short of hilarious. I don’t know much about this guy. But I hope he can watch this and laugh.

Grow Alone, Grow Weird (You’re probably normal. Seriously.)

Posted on September 26, 2011 by Kamen

It’s a pretty simple concept. And the older I get, the more I subscribe to it.

Some time alone is good for everyone, but too much time to yourself starts to skew your perception and ultimately leaves you feeling like a weirdo. Having spent much of my life as a “semi-social” person, being on the outside leaves you struggling with things that in reality are totally normal. Now more than ever, being a parent of two small children, I am facing more situations that make me crave more interaction with folks in a similar phase of life. This parenting thing is hard. Being an adult is hard. Life… it’s hard.

Sometimes all you need is confirmation that everyone else finds life as hard and impossible as you do. So instead of running your head into a wall or taking up a solid drinking habit, you vent it a little and realize you’re normal.

Most of us live very isolated lives. It’s bullshit.

Louis C.K. on Being a Father

Posted on June 23, 2011 by Kamen

Louis C.K. is generally pretty vulgar. Funny, but vulgar. But this spot was for 60 minutes and it’s pretty great, and clean. He actually manages to deliver messages like this in his comedy. It’s not always obvious, but he seems to have pretty strong feelings about being an active father and I admire that kind of spirit.

Windows, I Do Not Miss Thee

Posted on May 20, 2011 by Kamen

So I had to take an exam (of sorts) yesterday and it had 50 questions, half of which were based on Windows. I knew 95% of them without looking up the answers, but it made em realize that I have been Windows free for some time now!

My favorite question was this…..

When using the Windows Search function to locate the file named “File1.txt”, the Search results shows two instances of the file located somewhere on drive C:. Which of the following pairs would be possible Windows Search results:

C:\File1.txt
C:\file1.txt

C\Folder\File1.txt
C\Folder\file1.txt

C:\Folder\file1.txt
C:\File1.txt

C:\Folder C\File1.txt
C:\Folder C\file1.txt

The third option is the correct answer…  but the first answer could also be correct in my world (Linux). Yes, my MacBook will yell at me just like Windows though.

The point is, being tested about Windows not only made me realize I forgot how Windows free I was living, but also how much I really despise Windows. Saying this immediately means I will soon find myself in a position of being required to use Windows daily, but if it means I am busy making money, whilst using Windows, I’ll take it. (The devil’s ears just perked up)
