Quack

There will be times, in the future or alternate universe, that I:

• understand CERN's science joke, like when they said Higgs boson quacks like a duck and walks like a duck, like really, all I have in my mind is it's doing chicken dance

• talk in TEDTalk about the importance of rice cooker for an Indonesian's life and how I went through my compulsive hoarding of Transjakarta busway ticket
• understand why Virginia Woolf used "shan't" in her suicide letter

Mao Mao Mao

I was in an art seminar, pembicaranya mengkritik karya pameran-pameran seni rupa lokal yang objek-objeknya adalah Barack Obama, Mother Theresa, dan Mao Tse-tung.  He was like, why don't we use D.N Aidit, Soeharto? He also shared how he had been mocked for quoting S. Sudjojono instead of fancy western art professor.

And I agree.  We actually have so much to offer, so many badass heroes, I have deep fascination with Ibu Soed and Tiga Serangkai, like someone was joking that Indonesia adalah negara yang pahlawannya paling banyak.  Then why don't we pick one?  Whining about our nation's curriculum and how they made history look so friggin boring is so 2000 and late, so it's just about our gut and will now.

hey yall

By the way, talking about gut, it reminds me of grand unified theory

And you know, I feel so coool that I knew D.N Aidit stands for Dipa Nusantara Aidit from books, not wikipedia.

A Critic #2

I hate how people easily use humanities fields for mask. I tweet a lot, I get spiritual whenever Bob Dylan showing his non-existent fuck when people boo him, or found Jason Godfrey being a straight guy as he explaining UFC in FOX channel, I damn the mbak-mbak if I got my kerupuk hard, Animal Planet never made a documentary out of me, but do those things make me a social media worker, writer, spiritualist, food critic and a humanist? What are the standards?

Btw, Jason, that guy in Star World, has tumblr

A Critic

You can relate everything with life, because they are part of the life itself, like your fruit, your poo, your neighbour's loud music, an animal in random NGC show, so make a philosophical quote out of it it's kinda boring and outdated.  Unless it's witty though.


You have a life, you are gonna live that, so those lifequotes seem like some sorta life-spoiler, useless, only gives a temporal pleasant nostalgic feel.  I mean, you will watch M dead in Skyfall, having someone telling you that in the first place is so killjoying.

exactly

And dont you hate being "I've told you so"-ed, so those lifequote virus. Like if you had being told by that spoiler that there would be a cute guy in Skyfall named Q, and you finally saw him and your vagina hooked him but then that virus would be like "see, see, hahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha, but GTFO, bitch, he's mine, I owned him first, it is a crime for you to like him without my permission"
