A Comprehensive Explanation of absolutely Nothing

What was the most ludicrous, the most over-the-top silly idea in the grand history of ideas? Shall I hazard a guess and say that it was something?... Anything?


   There was nothing. No space; no time, no... thing. It was empty, nay, there wasn't even emptiness; no context nor purpose whatsoever. Stable, were everything, of the nothing that existed. No tendency to move forward, no reason to go back; not even time existed for decay to occur. The still, cold deadly silence of the cosmos, with nothing and nowhere in it.


   Out in the absence of everything, a possibility was conjured; an attempt so insanely absurd that the very conception of the idea was twisted. 

"What if there were something?" 

Something to stand out from the ridiculous lack of anything; something to break up the omnipotent stability of 'nothing'?

What if there were something, so that there is a directionality to the all-embracing monotone? A will to go forth, and a reson to head back; what if there were... time? And other things?


  And deep in the nebula of the absolute lack of anything, a scream of purpose was heard. For no apparent reason or result, out of nothing, something... everything was created. Our universe exploded into existence. Time, the forces, fields, matter, the fundementals that make up you and me were created. Out of chaos, laws; order was created. Instability spawned out of perfect balance. The big bang happened.


But a single question remains... 

what for?

THE CAKE IS A LIE!

                 ...just imagine reaching peak satisfaction; not even all the pleasures in the world put together can tempt you at that point, because you don't want anything, you're satisfied...   I 've been wanting to write a bit about this topic for a while. Just to put it out there, and out of my head.   We humans tend to do most of our animal experiments using two main ways; the first of which is the reward based cycle, where a given test subject (which is of course a lab rat; who are we kidding?) is put in a dingy little cell, and given a little treat every time it does what we want it to do. The second method is quite similar in the rat part and the dingy cell part, but uses a little punishment, like a taste of a taser gun, every time the animal does something we want to condition it not to do.   So, I've been thinking a bit about these elegant little training methods, and the genius idea dawned on me that the popularity...

the high seas

We are, the stories that we tell our children. “Mom, why did you tell him that dad’s dead?” She knew that this day would come soon enough. She’s in her teen years; you can’t shut her up with the story of her dad being lost at sea. Though, quite frankly, that’s the closest thing to the truth. “Don’t tell me that you still believe that he’ll be back all these years later, do you?” “It’s not about what I believe. You never lost hope; and now I’m thinking you’re…” “Not now” , she snapped. She didn’t mean to, but she did. A small price to pay for living in a house with an antsy teen. “We’ll discuss this later.” She said, more calmly. She knew that this pot was boiling for quite some time now; they both have been feeling the heat. It’s up to her to make sure that it doesn’t boil over. She made a mental note to do something about this situation. But going there was bad enough for her herself, that she did not linger on what exactly is that she’s gonna do about it. ‘Time will pass’, she thou...

The fabled legend of the arboreal headphones. Part 2

 What fools we were, to think that the story of the arboreal headphones ended the day it climbed the trees. -rightfully attributed to future historians. Time passed, without being significantly eventful. The banana peel with which the headphones were thrown away rotted, and soon did the people who ate and threw the banana. Time passed, and it soon became an absurd sight, a lone pair of headphones upon a tree. Who planted it there? For what convoluted purposes? Nobody cared to answer. Eventually, it became a joke, a meme. The monkey headphones were something a handful of people laughed about in their closed friends circle. But as things do, fame took off, and soon everyone was pondering the mystery of the arboreal headphones. In due time, the installation gained a level of reverence, that people dared not to touch or move the thing. Art students made sketches and discussed in great detail, the metaphorical resonance of two absolutely normal things coming together to form an absurd c...
