Talking with my wife

"Today I felt really like an ass, being in a tram, listening to newest Philip Glass opera and reading Michel Foucault and his Archeology of knowledge."

"Yeah, you tell me, I was reading Nietzsche and listening to Bach in the tram."

lol, maybe we should switch to Michael Jackson and Danielle Steele :oP

Vertigo over knowledge

Sometimes you feel almost sick from every book you have just read. Lets say I have read hundreds of books, but with every new one I feel like I "know" still nothing, or very little. Every book intertextually connects you to another book and another author, but still there are lots of those you will never have time or possibility to read...

And that feeling is something I would compare to the vertigo over knowledge.

Where is bidet situated in countries in which they write from right to left?

It is kinda well-known fact, that people who live in countries which use left-to-right handwriting have sense of time as a line which goes from left to right, e.g. if you draw a line and in middle you write NOW, then on the left side is PAST and on the right side is FUTURE.

It works on the opposite level for the people who write from right to left. Their FUTURE is on the LEFT etc.

Now the interesting thing is if this works also in architecture. Take for example the toilets. In most (lets say European, cause it is where I live) countries when you sit on a toilet and look around, the bidet is situated on the rigt side. You know, first you poop and then you move on the timeline to the right, where your bidet is.

To prove my hypothesis, which says, that in the countries where they write from right to left, they will have bidets on the left side, I would want to see their toilets.

Well there are certainly some flaws in this, i.e. do they have bidets in such countries etc., but if they have, maybe you should look left after you poop :o).

Please, leave comments if you have experience with toilets in right-to-left writing countries :o). OH, I forgot you cant make comments because of the stupid fucks who spammed the blog all the time :o))

Secularization

Finding Yellow Pages instead of the Bible in the bedside table at hotels.

Is communism dead?

It is so funny, that when reading about anti-communist activists, media always mention Cuba or China. Well I think that if Marx would see the conditions of proletariat in China, he would wet his pants, because that is the purest form of capitalism there and yet they are enslaved there under the notion of communistic regime.

On the other hand in European Union we say that we have democracy, but look at the working conditions of proletariat here. That is the purest form of socialism. And what is Brussel? Lots of people look at Brussel as the lair of the socialist bureaucrats who are regulating economy as much as they can and Brussel is then only other form of central planning.  

I would be really interested in what ideology the activists who fight against China believe in. Are they leftists or righ-wings? Because if they prefer leftist ideology, then it would be really interesting.
