Haiku

“Atop of a hill, the willow is shivering”. Is this haiku?

Whenever I was getting into something full-hearted, with enthusiasm – it wasn’t working out great. On the other hand, whenever I was getting into things reluctantly, they usually succeeded above all expectations. Later I learned how to manipulate it.

Special

I’m one of a kind, so special, so precious: I know that, I feel that. The only thing that I don’t know is – why?

Modest man

He was a modest man: all he wanted is to live forever! Be careful with your wishes.

Senile

According to one theory…

According to one theory (we don’t want to name the author), mankind could be divided into two groups: those self-contained, and those that are not. The latter group is responsible for all progress, art and scientific achievemnents, etc. The irony is that member of the latter group usually work for the members of first group.

Do you know when you’re old?

Do you know when you’re old? When unsuccessfully trying for 5 mins to remove toothpaste from your chin, only to realize that it’s grays in your beard.

I can’t believe…

I can’t believe that women are so stupid that they don’t like me. Nonsense!
