Interesting book that many should read at least once.

Police got a report about this, chased and stopped the car. And conversation between police officer and driver was something like … Read more
People are stupid and naive. And sometimes when faced with tragic event, or if their whole life was not the best one, people tend to be quite superstitious and easy to trick by different types of prophets, psychics, card readers, tea leaf translators, shamans and tricksters. Today the biggest problem might be that such scum … Read more
I am frequent customer of Taxi Göteborg and most of the time in front of car there is small plastic holder with taxi driver ID. I have noticed that when driver is black, he always looks completely different than whats on ID. Often I think that it is some other guy who just jumped in … Read more
One of less creepy features of google maps is possibility to save favorite places, and I like to do that. I usually save with star each place where I was sleeping (if I don’t forget), plus there are few more that were somehow special. I also use “want to go” markers mostly for customers or … Read more
This is a serious question, and I don’t have answer to it. There is plenty of researches that say they are bad. But we all know how to use them and each of us found some good use for it. Even if it is some plain attention seeking or making some extra money, showing to … Read more

There is so much different ways and platforms to get Andy Warhol’s 5 minutes of fame, or 15… Doesn’t matter, because it is 5 or 15 minutes of fame on average – some will have whole lives of fame, most of us wont have 1 second. There is Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, MySpace, but what is … Read more
As all other generalizations this one is also wrong. There is recycling in Sweden, a lot of recycling, but it is not same everywhere. I will describe how it is going on in place where I live at the moment. In contrast, when I was living in another “kommun”, there was sorting of trash as … Read more
Got asked some days ago if pingulingo is delivering what it promises – 2 week program for learning of different foreign languages. I think it doesn’t. First of all, 2 weeks is not enough for anything. Claiming that something could be done in 2-3 weeks instead of 6-12 months is bullshit. Try making a baby … Read more

Here is one very boring, short and wrongly recorded video of airplane propeller. It doesn’t look so weird as it could, but still it’s mildly funny.

What is the perfect size of blog posts? Why care? It actually can affect how much people will read what I write and think about sharing. Some time ago 500 words was perfect, now it is more like 2000+. I guess there is also some kind of fashion in blog industry that determines what should … Read more
I am not a fan of fat girls. I find them ugly, no matter the face or the soul. Sometimes I think about how should sex look, what would be the possibilities and impossibilities of making love to somebody who has third of the body in fat, and one third extra. One must wonder, what … Read more
