Just for Laughs: cR0oKeD LoGIC



Loves makes the world go round and crazy
- the world itself is round, there's no other way to go but to follow the cycle, which is round. And people are all crazy whether they admit it or not. So with or without love, the world is round and people are crazy. Just that, an obvious truth. Love can do and should do much better than that.

First impression lasts
- Impressions in general dont last, whether it's the first or the last. Impressions are just foreplay, a prelude. More often than not, impression is just based on some bandwagon effect, people are copycats and tend to copy what his neighbors think. And a person's memory retention is just so bad that impressions are just minutely insignificant in proportion to time. Poor human creatures.

Silent waters run deep
- It might not be its own will to be silent in the first place. It might want to flow with the current but some intangible object is blocking its way, keeping it silent. Well maybe some big stones or icebergs are pulling down its leg. It might not have enough courage to trample over the obstacles, thus staying put in status quo. Just because it's not moving doesn't necessarily mean it's deep. Mere perception. There's always two sides of a coin.

First things first
- First things are not firsts. They get solved the last most of the time. It is human nature that resists the impending should be 'firsts' candidates in the priority list, the important and difficult ones are usually left last or left out, unknowingly or purposedly. Cowardice makes us run away from it, but we tend to fool ourselves that we are organized and focused, trapped in our own make-believe perfect world.

The eyes are the windows of our soul
- Should be 'The soul is the window of our eyes'. It's the soul that sees the real thing. So it sends a message to the nerve of the eye then to the brain cells to interpret it.

What is essential is invisible to the naked eye
- contradicting previous statement. Who cares what you dont see? Tangible and visible things that people care the most like wealth and beauty breed greed into this evil world. Only a few believes otherwise, and hence becomes a minority, an outcast, a paradox. But still, being an exception to the norm doesn't make them lesser of a person.

With great power comes great responsibilities
- So untrue. More and greater responsibility goes to the complacent and industrious worker who just bows to orders and takes in more tasks, in short they are the ants. See those with great power in the real world, they sit at the top, smiling, relaxing, and just play the game by assigning more responsibility to the ants. Hence the evolution of the sugar-coated word called 'delegation' and they continue to enjoy the adoration of their worshippers. There's one thing people of power and influence are pretty good at though. Statement should be 'With great power comes great Scandal'. For more information, refer to Philippine government's Lozada ZTE scam, HK entertainment industry's Edison Chen scandal and office politics - I believe each big company has its own fair share.

Dont judge the book by its cover
- Well a book and a cover are separate entities. Who says the author is always the designer of the book cover? It doesn't happen all the time, I think they hire some graphic artists to do it for them. Let's say the next time you buy an expensive new cool shirt that turns out not to fit you so well upon wearing it in a party, do you want to be criticized that you have an awful body or would you rather just pass the blame on that despicable stupid ugly shirt?

*If the content has offended the originators or believers of the popular sayings, I apologize. These are actually good quotes I myself believe in :). Hey I like Spiderman and Little Prince. Just need some substance to experiment with my first attempt on satirical literary composition. Whew maybe I should start consulting Zafra. If she has Twisted, I think I can start my Crooked :p Main difference is.. I'm not sure mine's gonna sell any. :D. Btw nice image taken from the net, it says it all.
