About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to figure out what the hell i'm gonna do next, on a day to day basis

ABOUT ME

Aiming for the 190 cm, blueish eyes I think(haven't checked lately), long curly hair(about down to the shoulders at the moment, but that's bound to change at some point), beard that insists on coming back every time I'm finally able to get rid of it and about 85 kg, this is about the best I can do, but if you insist on more then...

"The times they are a changin'"

To find out all about me, you're gonna have to do better then that, it's not gonna b easy, you're gonna have to meet me, and when you do, I'll plead you to give me another chance, please...

Now let's meet and talk all about it.

PHILOSOPHY

Always have someone to blame at your disposal, nothing ever has to be your fault, ever!

Every argument can be won, by any of the sides. If you stick to your arguments long enough, regardless of how ridiculous they might be, the other side will eventually fold.

When ever you end up feeling you're in the deepest shit you ever had the pleasure to witness, remember that at any given moment you might get hit by a piano and die.

If you continue reading you will not get any smarter, which is true both for this paragraph and usually generally in life.

life is a constant struggle of achieving equilibrium between contradictions. it's best not to contradict yourself, but sometimes it's unavoidable. I know I just keep going when I do.

Making fun of everything is a serious matter and I make it my personal business to attempt to seriously make fun of anything even remotely serious.

Don't regret not doing something, be grateful for what you did instead.

Stay if it feels good, even if there was something you wanted to do somewhere else, and don't stay if it doesn't feel good, even though it's been a while, and a change is never easy.

Good is only good compared to bad. Everything is relative, and what we see as negative, is a necessity in our lives in order to have the positive as well.

Interests

Beauty is not only in the eye of the beholder, but also, in my opinion, perspective dependent. I think (or wish to believe) that beauty's perspective is always obtainable, regardless of who the beholder is. Or, to appease the semantics maniacs among you, every and any beholder can obtain the perspective through which beauty will be revealed, in any and every thing. Which also applies to interests (if you didn't get it by now).

Music, Movies, and Books

Good literature doesn't have to be on a specific topic for me to enjoy, it just has to be written well.

Jazz, progressive rock, soft rock, Israeli music, or anything that's pleasant to the ear, and I'm open minded, or try to be.

I don't watch movies much, but I'm occasionally able to enjoy it.
One specific movie I really enjoyed was Requiem For A Dream, it will blow your mind and keep you shocked for the couple of hours it lasts, and then for as long as you remember it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've learned the ultimate answer to life the universe and everything.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach me to decide

More often then not, I'm too cynical to be properly understood, I can try and teach you the fine art of making that your reality.
