Quotable quotes

Was reading some local newspaper (nst i think or was it star??? argh i fucking forgot. Bear with me on this one :P) and the quote was actually quite a good one. It went something like this:

'With history being made all the time, every day now seems to be the first anniversary of something awful.'

Something i totally agree with.. Kinda reflects on how bad our times are, especially since its gonna be the anniversary of something awful almost every day..

Veering partly off topic for a while, and talking about history being written and rewritten, it seems like today people are so hell bent on trying to write and rewrite history and outdo each other, its getting quite old hearing about how someone has managed to go down in history only for him to be sandblasted and outdone by another person not too long afterwards. The people of yesteryears went down in history for discovering things by chance, and they really helped out and benefitted future generations. Which cannot be said for the current crop of people trying to create history by filling every niche available. Thus i find things promoting such stupidity an utter waste of time and effort. Something, if u havent guessed, like guinness world records.. I do find it an utter waste of time and money to reward records and people going down in history for doing redundant and stupid things (putting the most sausages in one's mouth anyone? sheesh)..

Ok so back to the topic, i guess from now onwards, since it is gonna be the first anniversary of something awful on a daily basis, this blog shall be (partly) dedicated to marking out all these anniversaries of awful days!! haha.. So check this space for more updates!

FB Out!
