He who makes a beast out of himself gets rid of the pain of being a man.
In this post, I will make a most unusual statement. I know, have made a lot of unusual statements in the past. I’ve said the more you know, the less you are. I’ve even said that knowledge makes you blind. Today I will take the gentle hand of Albert Einstein, …
We’re doing a post today on the Beast, the affectionate part of this site. For those unfamiliar with the Internet slang ZFGs that’s Zero F**ks Given, sometimes also refereed as DGAFs (Don’t Give a F**k). Don’t underestimate the importance of the word fuck. I’ll just go clean with it. The …
