Here's a Thought:
Every day it seems a random thought pops into my mind from all the things I see, whether they be from school or otherwise. I like to rant about them here. Updates are here as well!
Not a memory - it's gone! The Power of deletion.
Man's Worst Invention

One of the most disastrous inventions of man is the word “if”.
“What will happen, if it goes this way?”
“What would’ve happened, if it didn’t go that way?”
“If…”
All our lives, we bother ourselves with nonsense ifs.
Seriously, what would happen, (if!) there were no ifs in our dictionaries?
Fear, anxiety, tension, regret, enmity, animosity, revenge, complaint, hatred and so many other frightening vocabularies would disappear and would be omitted from our dictionaries.
Oh, (if!) only there were no such word if !!!

Everyone! Any word, any answer...
Tell me, is there a word you hate? If you could delete any word and
what definition that word holds... Would you?


[Examples:
'Giraffe'
-You'd be deleting all giraffes from existance,
and it'd be as if they were never known in the first place!

'run'
-Well, are we talking adjectives? Of course.
You can choose whether it's something like a person running
or perhaps a machine running on fuel.

'Love'
-It's a feeling, so that wouldn't exist.
I can't really put a finger on how to explain this one, but you can say to whatever extent...]

Probably any cuss word. Eccept for "********"
That one is fun. X]

But... Other then that. No.
Deleting words is bad. I think we should keep making words!!
BWAHAHA!


[Yes, my username is lame. But I've had it for so long, I don't feel like changing it]
