Happy As Larry

I envy those people

Who are not deep thinkers

Who never peek out

From behind their blinkers

They all must live

Such carefree lives

Whilst I toil away

Hiding the knives


Stood At The Urinal

Do you
ever
think
there’s
more to
life
than
this?

Fuck
knows
mate,
to be
honest,
I only
came in
for a piss

  1. On the contrary, I read that intelligence usually correlates with happiness :). Whilst I can see that doing less internal overthinking would be nice, it’s probably more stressful when coming up against external factors when you haven’t pre-thought about/understood them as much. Or for example reading the news would be overwhelming if you didn’t have some rational basis for what to filter out as not worth worrying about, and that requires general knowledge as well as some understanding of probabilities and things. Or maybe you just wouldn’t read the news at all which would indeed be bliss lol. Until the bombs dropped out of nowhere.

    Oh btw haha! I remember this urinal poem. I even remember my witty response with some awkward lady’s version 😂. I only came in to change my tampon? Or something 😬

    1. You could well be right. I just look at others sometimes and think I’d love to live their life for a day – they just seem so…unaffected. By anything and everything. Or, at least, the effects of anything and everything are far less catastrophic for them than they are for me.
      Who knows…

      And yes, I remembered your comment actually but had to go back and read it for the actual wording. Hilarious. I really should have stolen it as my response here! 🤣🖤

      1. Hahaha, I need the actual wording too :D.

        It does go both ways though lack of or heightened awareness— as lower awareness usually means you don’t get to experience things like the majesty of the heavens and the universe. Like whenever I’d run inside purely exhilarated from something I saw through my telescope and wanted to show someone, anyone— and nobody gave a fucking shit 😂😂. I am sure you would’ve gave a shit about Saturn’s rings or Andromeda galaxy!! Dinosaurs is another one of these things :D.

        1. Very true – on all fronts. I also have a penchant for a dinosaur or two. Saw ‘Trix’ the T-Rex skeleton in Glasgow a few years ago. Was amazing!! 🦖

          Oh – and your response in full:

          Sat On The Bowl

          Do you
          ever
          think
          there’s
          more to
          life
          than
          this?

          Fuck
          knows
          to be
          honest
          mate –
          I only
          came in
          to change my tamp—

          🤣🖤

      2. Oh btw this sentence is absolutely relatable to me, almost like a life motto:
        “Or, at least, the effects of anything and everything are far less catastrophic for them than they are for me.”
        It’s kind of the whole point behind autism diagnoses and things! A way to formalise that one sticking point/conflict lol.
