I dreamt of you

    Tonight i dreamt of you.
We were both in the army, only I, since it was my dream and all, was in the special forces, and also the protagonist. With another special forces guy, I had to blow up enemy barracks from the inside, while your platoon provided distractive fire. So I went in, set the charges, broke a door and left. As the two enemy buildings (one for me, one for the other special forces guy) exploded and crumbled, a third special forces guy was giving us votes on spectacularity. When I got to your platoon's camp, I was ordered to stay there with you, while the other people from special forces left for another mission. You said you were almost out of space, and you offered me to share a bunk with you.

Einstein and the third millenium

    Long long time ago, I can still remember, of a scientist winning a Nobel prize for a discovery of his, which proved to be extremely important in applied physics. That same scientist developed a theory of massive usefulness in theoretical and high energy physics. This theory also had wide philosphycal repercussions, and a large popularity among the masses, who couldn't understand one bit of it.

Anyway, that famous theory showed how time and space are interdependent, and illustrated some of the consequences of this discovery.

About a century later, here we are. The theory of relativity is more relevant now than ever, finally finding strong experimental validation to its foundations also in everyday life. It happens, as anyone can easily prove, that because of the height of civilization and technology we reached, that as you approach a nice looking woman she ages more and more at every step you take, space and time folding and crumpling their skin and faces.

The odd little things one notices

    You know how each and every place has its own subtle smell, that triggers your memories when you go back to someplace you had been a long time ago, and reminds you of some moments in your past.
Pisa smells like cut grass that's been left to soak in summer rain for about a week. It's just that kind of sweet rotten stench.

Umbrellas

    On a general basis, I dislike people. This becomes even more significant when it's raining, and everyone opens their umbrellas. It is no secret that I hate umbrellas with a passion burning like a hundred suns.
    First, I hate having umbrellas. Well, I would hate it, since as a general rule I don't have nor use umbrellas. Why should I have an hand busy holding it, trying to fight for it against the wind, and walk weird in an attempt not to blind passerbys, when a much better protection from water can be obtained with a jacket and a hat?
    In second place, I hate people with umbrellas. They generally are not used to having one, so whenever it's raining they have no idea how to move around with it, and end up hitting each other, and poor little me. And if it's not raining anymore, they carry it around, dripping on unsuspecting little me. Then, when they reach their destination (home, office, shop, hospital, morgue) they just leave their umbrellas around, flooding the floor. And they expect to find it back there, in a puddle of their own making.
    To summarize, I propose a world-wide ban on umbrellas. Effective immediately.

Water bills

    Basically i'm supposed to pay (a rather large amount of) money to maintain the right not to die of thirst in my own filth. And if i were not to pay, my rights to drink and have a personal hygiene more advanced than your average boar would simply be stripped away from me. I love progress.

[answering to this]
     My idea is that it's all about timing and attitude. By timing, i also want to refer to the context, so that i use the word timing in a much wider sense that the usual.
    With the correct timing and attitude one can do or say pretty much anything without any dire repercussion or consequence.
    There's no need to be big to have people feel instinctively intimidated. And if you play it right you can spank her, yes indeed.

Sustainability in product engineering

    after a while, hippies bore me. especially hippy managers. they are the damn bloody worst of all hippies. with their bullet-point talks full of acronyms and catch-up words, their graphs and tables which are based on propaganda rather than data. confront them. try to confront them, i dare you. they'll all turn into holier-than-thou mode in less time than it took me to write it, and they'll play with your arguments, turn them and twist them. your perfectly logical points and questions of accountability, trustworthiness of sources and references, will then be clear evidence of your egoism, misantropy, general hate for the world. all of a sudden you are the hunter who killed bambi's mother. you bastard son of a bitch, do you really want all the world's resources to go to waste, all the world's waters to become polluted and toxic, all the world's animals to mutate horribly and die? that is what will happen if you keep questioning graphs 1 through 4, and if you don't follow the guidelines on page 7. i wonder, do they really know the effects of, say, carbon dioxide emissions? do they have a test planet, or a bunch of them, that i don't know of, where they thoroughly examined the atmospheric and ecological dynamics under different time-changing conditions? i'd love to see the data they gathered, their analysis on that. anyway, whatever they say, i still think any bug that bites me should go extinct, at least in a 100 meters radius around me at any time.
