Too lazy to be ambitious

Too lazy to be ambitious,
I let the world take care of itself.
Ten days’ worth of rice in my bag;
a bundle of twigs by the fireplace.
Why chatter about delusion and enlightenment?
Listening to the night rain on my roof,
I sit comfortably, with both legs stretched out.

Sadly, their entertainment hasn’t improved much since then. But they still make little kids look like mature adults. Very strange.

Crazy Speech in Race For Tokyo Governor

This is pretty good, it’s worth a watch.

According to YouTube:

Kouichi Toyama is an extreme left-wing activist (so said the official introduction, although he calls himself a fascist) who was among the ten candidates for the governor of Tokyo, and gave a way-wacky speech.

Unique English lesson

I spent quite a few years working in Asia, and thought that I’d seen most of the fucked-up learning English videos out there.

This one, however, reaches new heights of idiocy. Sometimes the Japanese really do make you shake your head. It must the latent aftereffects of radiation poisoning.

GOOD Magazine: The Two Births of Kim Jong Il

From Good magazine:

Having spent at least a collegiate semester or two in Western Civ, we like to think that we know a bit about revisionist history. However, no amount of aggrandizement or glossing over that we’ve encountered compares with the disparity between the myth and the reality of North Korean leader Kim Jong Il’s birth. It’s a disparity that belies language. So we’ve done our best to represent it visually.

We hope you enjoy this first video addition to our GOOD GUIDE: to the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, also known as North Korea.
