Damn!! Somebody Really Said That?!?!?!

It's not every day one comes across something so completely ridiculous, so overtly pompous, so hysterically absurd that it generates a lurid compulsion to read it again and again. I've always subscribed to the belief that the vast majority of people are inveterate self-praisers; we tend to be as convinced of our own genius almost as we are baffled by how no one else could notice. For this reason, with predictable consistency, some fool hopped-up on 100mg of self-importance makes a comment that, well, sounds something like...."if you get killed from smoking, you've lost an important part of your life"-Brooke Shields... or "The Korean Language and Korean Writing are the greatest cultural inheritance of everything in the world" -Mr. Notworthmentioning. Since this quick post is about quotes, I think it only fitting to close it with one.

“It’s so simple to be wise. Just think of something stupid to say then don’t say it.” –Sam Levenson
Great advice, Sam!!!!
