And now, more Deep Thoughts by jtb583...

Have you ever heard of the Greek philosopher Hypotheticles? Probably not, considering he spent all day thinking about what he could write instead of writing anything at all. That's where we get the word hypothetical from.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to experience your own birth with the ability to remember it? Just think about it...

If I could travel to any point in history, I would go back to when Jesus first started teaching, then I would go right up to the crowd who was listening intently to the gospel and say to them with a smirk on my face "Heh, I taught this guy everything he knows".

Meta Deep Thought: If we see an obvious troll diary, instead of posting recipes, fail pics and cute cat pics, we decided to just ignore the diary altogether, don't you think it would inflame the troll who posted the diary any more than posting those items as comments ever could? Meditate on that...

Let me just throw a handful of theses at you and see if any pass your smell test...Okay fine, I pulled that out of my ass.
(Say it out loud, you may think it's funny)

You know how kids can get bent out of shape when they borrow books from a library and don't ever return them, thinking that when they do the fines will be enormous. Well I work at a library and I'm here to tell you that yes, we do literally bend kids out of shape if they don't return their books on time. We have a guy whose job it is to bend kids, his name is Tony and he's from New Jersey. Why do you think there are so many cases of scoliosis in children? Lots of lazy kids out there...

How would you like this as a birthday gift? In 1261, on his eleventh birthday, young emperor John IV Lascaris of Byzantium was blinded on the order of his own regent Michael VIII Palaeologos. Michael was crowned emperor in Saint Sophia not long afterward. Oh, and John's birthday? Christmas day...bummer man.

Can we retire the saying "You know what..."? It's quite condescending and arrogant.

Meta Deep Thought #2: If you've been here longer than a week you've probably seen this comment made by a Kossack:
"Not a diary, please delete."
Well, I want to boldly state my opinion on this matter. If you are able to comment on it and if the site allows the user to publish it, then technically and philosophically it IS a diary. The electrons moved and the diary exists forever in cyberspace and on a server somewhere in Kosland.
Now, a completely valid comment would be this:
"Crappy diary, please delete."
Now we're getting somewhere!

Although not at all feasible, wouldn't it be great if professional sports franchises in the USA adopted a relegation rule? To explain, relegation means that each season the worst two or three teams in a league would be relegated to play in the second division of that sport the next season. The best teams in the second division that season would take their place. Goodbye Washington Nationals, Detroit Lions, and Sacramento Clippers! Good luck on getting back into the first division.
