Some thoughts motivated after reading an article about the mechanics of nature and how certain stuff about nature just don't seem right. Or does it seem right? Nomatter. Don't know what it is. Is it my face? The way I walk? The boring way I dress? There has to be a reason why, when walking … Continue reading Fresh Ammunition

Exceptional Mediocrity
Barry O is trying. You have to give him that. Vladimir Putin is trying, too. I guess. But there's something else about these two men. It's as though they're already bored with a history that will, in the most important ways, pass them by because of über-under-achievement. Thank goodness that rational human beings know that in … Continue reading Exceptional Mediocrity
Awash In Projection
As I've waddled down the creek of trying-to-say, failing to say before, one of the main reason I'm skeptical regarding the significance of Edward Snowden and his data dump--which we all have to wait to see based on advertising revenues of those who posses the data--is that I'm not sure what exactly motivated him to … Continue reading Awash In Projection
Interwebnet Orwell Wet Dream
Post is NSFW and rude and proud of it. Cool how all this "leaked" data is trickling down through the convenient pipes of the Interwebnets via well advertised news sites. But all serious kidding aside. How much is Glenn Greenwald earning from all this? What? Wrong question? Americans are more concerned not about the profits of … Continue reading Interwebnet Orwell Wet Dream
Whose Doctrine
Ok. First. I probably shouldn't post something where my worst-writing is shorter than links. But in this case… Nomatter. The scariest thing about what the west is doing right now, beyond all the murder, mayhem, lying and lust for control of you-know-what, is how long it will take to finally move on. That is, when will … Continue reading Whose Doctrine
Wunder Wunderkinder
Wunderlist by 6Wunderkinder. More than just a mediocre run-of-the-mill cloud app? Yes and no. Worst-writer recommends its use--as a shopping list to be shared between iOS devices. I reckon it's also a great enterprise utility where corporatists can coordinate data and to-do lists in the cloud. But I'll never get to see that part of … Continue reading Wunder Wunderkinder
Get The ?uck Out Of The Way
Everything will not be ok, dear worst-reader. But that doesn't matter. In the immediate short term, the thinkers among us can rejoice that for at least a few seconds the world might be(come) a place lacking in corporate American't dysfunction as Steve Ballmer decides to… finally get the *uck out of the way. You know, … Continue reading Get The ?uck Out Of The Way
Actor Important
http://youtu.be/P0ukYf_xvgc http://youtu.be/Z7BuQFUhsRM I do not wish to belittle Kevin Spacey's achievements as an actor. In fact, can't wait to watch House of Cards. But after watching the above vid of him playing Mr. Important-Actor, all I can say is... Mr. Spacey, YOU GO GURL! Of course, I live in Germaninland where the digital world is … Continue reading Actor Important
Crescent Change
Ever watch a crescent moon change? Sometimes you can actually watch the crescent change until daylight gets in the way. All you have to do is put down that drink or joint for about 2 hours and remain there on your back while the bugs crawl from the grass onto your neck and behind you … Continue reading Crescent Change
Braver Soul
There's too much focus on "whistle blowing" these days turning the whole thing into a dizzying drama of silliness. Which makes it all (conveniently) very distracting. Since it's common knowledge that spying has been part of our everyday lives since 2001, that is, since American'ts stood stupefied in ignorant-bliss to the ramifications of the Patriot Act, … Continue reading Braver Soul
Shock Awed
Update: here some great reporting on WAPO purchase by Bezos. Was reading through the news last night using Flipboard. When I saw the headline that Bezos bought WAPO I yelped kinda loud. Startled my dog and perhaps a neighbour or three thru various open windows that seem to offer no help in this Eurowasteland heatwave. … Continue reading Shock Awed
Miss Protest
The first protest I ever experienced in Eurowasteland goes back to circa 1986. Was visiting Germanian and happened across a demonstration. Not sure what they were demonstrating against but it really doesn't matter. After that I found myself seeking out these protests more and more. Reason? What a great way to pick up armpit hairy … Continue reading Miss Protest
Trickle Fail Up
Is it fail upwards or is it trickle upwards? You know, the question that best represents where we are today in this dog eat ice cream but enjoy yourself anyway world? Wait. Or. Should the question be another question? Perhaps we should resort, dear worst-reader, to questions better fit for the norm? That is, let's … Continue reading Trickle Fail Up
Motown Blues
Joke: What does Greece have in common with Detroit? (Short pause. Think.) Well, that's about all the joke I can remember. But then again, if you think about it, there really is something to laugh at when it comes to comparing Greece with Detroit. And be assured, these two should be compared. First, they're both … Continue reading Motown Blues
Anglo vs Germanin
Note 1: Post is incomplete, not very cohesive and w/out narrative. It's worst than normal-worst. You've been warned. Good luck. New & Improved Clans I've been obsessing for a few years over of the idear that there's a growing, alive & kicking chasm in the western world. This chasm is, in part, due to Das Volk's … Continue reading Anglo vs Germanin
Innovation Dead On Arrival
Subtitle: Real Digital Pop. Update: Berlin Polizei want the perpetrators. Go figure. How to kill innovation? Worst-writer needs to write a book about how they killed innovation. Reason? I think I've lived through the killing. That's right. I worked for at least two dot-coms back in the day. And I have no qualms in saying … Continue reading Innovation Dead On Arrival
Tea Abortion and George Carlin
In the wake of recent Texas politics and American moral dysfunction that has ruined the "dream", worst-writer is both amused and über-amused. Since Americans enjoy living in a world of fear, on account conservatives can't accept the failure they have sewn and the fact that American Exceptionalism has run its course, it's only natural that those … Continue reading Tea Abortion and George Carlin
Mobility To Nowhere
Ah, the paradigm shift from horse & buggy was long and prosperous for cars, governments and, most importantly, oil. This paradigm has served well. Or? Enter Tesla and its founder Elon Musk. The more I hear about him and the more I dream of buying a Tesla S the more confused I get. Is Elon … Continue reading Mobility To Nowhere
The Great Mockery
On The TV series The Sopranos. This post is NSFW. The electronic book of knowledge has this as its first sentence about the American TV series The Sopranos: "...an American television drama…" Stop the presses! As of the writing of this worst-post, I'm in the fifth season of the series. I started watching the series around … Continue reading The Great Mockery
Wozed
There is a culture worth not forgetting. Especially when you know that culture is being forced to reach its end. For you see. There is an alternate universe to the baby boomer war-mongers that are going to be our demise. Indeed. There was once a group of hippies, even though some weren't exactly hippies. Well. … Continue reading Wozed
N-Word Luv
Some thoughts motivated after watching Quentin Tarantino's Django Unchained. Anyone want to know how to ruin a potentially good spaghetti western? I suppose the same applies for ruining a (less) potentially good spaghetti world war 2 movie. And why you're watching both, it's probably a good thing if you don't know much about two things. One … Continue reading N-Word Luv
What's The Big Deal
In a parallel universe far, far away there is a parallel Marie Antoinette, who is both a grand queen and a successful HR executive in a parallel corporation, yelling at the voter-pawns below her Chateau balcony made of mahogany, gold and Apple iPad aluminium scraps. While simultaneously practicing the skill of sucking golf balls thru … Continue reading What's The Big Deal
Going Down
Denial. Repression. Avoidance. Lie. Project. Ah, growing up in American't. Where would I be today if it weren't for the child rearing that moulded me? But more on that in minute. I'm kinda pissed at the recent headlines regarding Michael Douglas trying to sell his new movie Behind The Candelabra. The thing is, my mom … Continue reading Going Down
Defining Boomer
Ah, funny begets funny. Funny does not beget comedy. Or? Nomatter. We are a nation of college frat-boy collective humorists. We are probably made on the biblically forgotten 9th day. The forgotten 8th day was for all political conservatives. And so. Is it funny the/this god-send of a post boomer generation? Indeed. The funny thing … Continue reading Defining Boomer
Schadenfreude 2
Part 2/2 The more time you spend as an expat without any direction the more destabilizing effect it will have. The reason? Well. Things tend to not remain hunky-dory - in the cerebral cortex. Add to that the joys of life, i.e. divorce, bleeding bank accounts, being stuck in a place that has almost perfected … Continue reading Schadenfreude 2
