Short Attention Span Topics #13

Links Chain

How can it be link time again already. Wasn’t that just 2 posts ago? That’s what happens when you suffer from the opposite of writers block. Hopefully working on 5 different things at once will pay off next week though.

Let’s roll!

Parental Technology → Penguin Pete tells about When “RTFM” becomes “Oh, Just Forget It!” (RTFM means “Read the F^^king Manual,” for those who don’t know. It’s an intentionally hostile response to people who ask questions about how to do things).

Bacon!® → Wyatt Earp demonstrates the Terrorist annihilating power of Bacon!®.

Blegging → Ben Cook takes aim at the “Buy me a Beer” plugin. Buy Me a Beer is Internet Panhandling.

Behavioral Psychology → Chris C explains that People Do Weird Things.

Self-Help → Life Sucks, Then You Die, according to Steve Pavlina. Find out if he means it.

Cosmetics → Johnny Virgil thinks Hazel is Nuts, and I have to agree with his assessment.

War → Harvey explains why we’re in Iraq – Very bluntly.

Television → Tyra Banks to Host America’s Next Top Global Warming Model, according to Point Five.

Next week should have more than one original content post. Until then, check these links out. I’m on vacation this weekend. WooHoo! 4 day weekend! So, I don’t know how often I’ll be checking in. In fact, by the time this is posted, I’ve already left.

If you’ve read anything hilarious or helpful, drop the link in the comments, or email it to me.

Have a nice weekend! :)

Why Do Today What You Can Put Off Until Tomorrow?

ProcrastinateIf you had something important to do, you would be doing it. You’re not doing it now, so it must not be all that important. Does it really need to be done right now?

Can’t it just wait a little longer? What’s going to happen? Is the world going to end? No. The sun will come out tomorrow.

Take your time. You’ll do it when you’re good and ready.

Those bills will still be there, right? What’s the hurry? They aren’t going anywhere. What about that friend you’ve been meaning to call? You’ve put it off this long. Let it slide a little longer.

Does it really make any difference in the grand scheme of things? In five years, are your friends going to say, “Remember that time you didn’t call me until the day after you said you would call?” You can bet your bottom dollar that they won’t even remember.

Will the power company say, “Sorry, we can’t fix your power outage because you were 3 days late on the last payment.” They take their time, why shouldn’t you?

I say we should all model our lives on the cable company. If you plan to meet with friends, give a 4-6 hour block during which you will meet. “Hey Bob! Let’s get together sometime between noon and 4pm on Saturday.”

There are some people that will try and tell you that now is all you have. They’ll try and say that some nondescript future is just never going to happen. Those people are giant douches.

Do you think they spend endless hours vacantly watching mind-numbing television, like you do? No. They’re always “Go, go, go.” Don’t be a douche.

There are so many ways that you can delay doing something. Here are my 3 favorites:

Short Attention Span Topics #12

Links Chain

It’s time again to round up the links for the week. Most of the posts I link are humorous, but sometimes I throw something at you that might actually be useful, or helpful in some manner. I’m sneaky like that.

Labor → Frank J tells all their is to know about the enemy. Know Thy Enemy: Unions.

Useless Entertainment → Wild Bill reports Jack Bauer To Torture Viewers By Going Green – 24 Reasons To Never Watch 24 Again

Charity → Chris C has the Solution for Homelessness.

Blogging → Darren Rowse says Declutter your Sidebar. This means you Wild Bill.

‘Bags 101 → DB1 show us a highly advanced move compliments of Vin Douchel.

Politics → Greg Gutfeld solves all the world’s problems. Democrats should be on board with this plan. They already want to kill the ubnborn, infirm, and the aged, so I don’t see where there would be a conflict.

Google → Penguin Pete tells why Google is like a second brain.

That’s all for now. If you have any great links, drop them in the comments, or send them via email.

Have a nice weekend!
