Announcement: Fair use warning!

These aphorisms are dedicated to people who’ll laugh at least once while reading them. For those who wouldn’t laugh even once, I suggest to re-read them again. If they don’t laugh even then, they are too serious and should be reading something else.

Question

The question is not “could you,” but “would you,” given a chance?

Access

We don’t own anything. We’re only paying for temporary access.

Effort

All this effort, just to move our screens from desk to couch.

Consumers

Without consumers, there’s no capitalism.

Advice

“Look busy even when there’s nothing to do.” is killer advice.

Price

Every success has a price.

Nothing

We share links by the thousands, yet we remember nothing, we value nothing.

Oranges

Oranges are everywhere, rotting, thrown out at the end of the day, while I remember getting them only on Christmas Day.

Pessimists

Pessimists don’t emigrate.
