- Normal is what can make us forget who we are, and what we want .. so we can work and produce and give birth and make money..
- Wasting your years studying in college to discover in the end that you can’t be employed
- You retire, and discover that you don’t have any more energy to enjoy life, so you die of boredom
- Believing that power is much more important that money, and money infinitely more important than happiness
- Making fun of everyone who seeks happiness instead of money, and accusing them of lack of ambition
- Comparing things like cars, houses and clothes, and measuring life by these things, instead of trying to find the true purpose of life
- Getting married, having kids, and staying together for a long time after the death of love, saying that this is ‘for the kids’
- Criticizing everyone who tries to be different
- Putting a piece of colored cloth around your neck, although it has absolutely no use other than being called a tie
- Never asking the direct question, although the other person can guess what you want
- Keeping a smile on, even on the verge of crying, and feeling sad for those who show their feelings
- Despising all that easily achieved, because it is worthless if it didn’t take sacrifice
- Following fashion, no matter how silly and uncomfortable
- Wasting a lot of time on external beauty, and little attention to internal beauty
- Using everything to appear above other humans, although you are normal
- Facing the door in an elevator, pretending you are the only one there
- Covering the christmans tree, in the southern hemisphere, with snow, even though christ’s birth had nothing to do with winter
- Going to a charity tea party, and beileving you have done enough to end social disparity
- Eating three times a day, even if not hungry
- Always saying you tried, although you never did
- Delaying the important things in life till later.. where you will have no more energy
- Avoiding melancholy with excessive doeses of tv-watching
- To believe that being a good, honest and decent person will make other see you weak, breakable and easily manipulated.. and to believe that aggressiveness and rudeness are equivalents of a strong personality
