The philosophy of success and its biological application.
When has mankind achieved success?
Often I linger and stare at this board like the vacuum it is, the destroyer of fairytales. This digital intellectual wasteland.
You want to know the truth to a certain subject?
Please head on down that minefield, walk right passed the snipers, ignore the artillery fire and hold your breath while walking through the mustard gas. We will guide you from there.
It is one nasty business. We all can confirm that.
So please let me tell you one of my “war” stories.
A while back I met this German exchange student, reasonable based and of German nobility. We started talking during our projects about WW2 and stuff. Hitler in his mind still evil reincarnated but he enjoyed my different views on the matter so he invited me over for some drinks and smoke some weed and discuss this subject further.
After I arrived, some small talk and a couple of beers later this dude is still smoking weed like there is no tomorrow. I have been smoking my cigarettes because weed makes me really tired and I had a “job” to do but I eventually got high to. He asks me: “Now, please tell me your view on World War 2, Hitler and all that”. He pushes his joint in the ashtray, grabs his beer and leans back in the chair.
In the background the song “Hellraiser” by Ozzy Osborne was playing. I asked him where he wanted to start. He told me it did not matter. Sitting there thinking, what would be a good anchor? A good move to welcome this man home? Then I started listing to that song and Ozzy sang:
“Out of control, I play the ultimate role. But that’s what lights my fire
Hellraiser, in the thunder and heat
Hellraiser, rock you back in your seat
Hellraiser, and I’ll make it come true
Hellraiser, I put a spell on you.”
