How could you not love Scott Adams!

This is a good interview where Gary Vaynerchuk shares his personal story coming to the US and starting his business.

This is brilliant political satire. The tragedy is it’s not even really satire, it’s what actually happened.

Check out Little Red Riding Hood v2.0 by a Tomas Nilsson, a swedish student. Brilliant.

I just read a personal/business blog where the self-proclaimed business guru behind it for at least the second time has named and shamed people for failed projects that he can’t face up to himself.  

Blogging about it next to a load of pretentious advice about how to lead a good life is poor taste. That’s a lot of bad karma right there. I’ve got some haiku advice:

When life hands bad cards
Winners play to win, or fold
Losers whine and lose

Dogbert rules

Be an Ocean Wave
Change and Direction in One
All follow its lead

Fantastic clip of Louis CK on Conan about how everyone takes everything for granted here. 

I just love Louis CK.

Yellow and mushy
The peel throws you off balance
Sudden change in life

I have refined the wording somewhat over the years, but the essence is the same and is quite possibly the most condensed, most brilliant and most true of all advice ever given from father to son.

So here it is, my father’s Banana Peel Theory:

‘Most things that will ever happen to you in life, you will come upon as unexpectedly as when slipping on a banana peel, so the best thing to do is to be where there are a hell of a lot of banana peels’

The Swedish version:

‘Det mesta som kommer att hända dig, kommer du att trilla in på ett bananskal på, så den enda plan du egentligen behöver är att se till att vara där det finns en jävla massa bananskal’

Now, my friends, go to where the banana peels lie.

The End.
