New Year's?

[iheartpeen0r]

I'm told I'm supposed to make some resolutions upon the new year. This has not been required of me before. I asked one of the janitors for some suggestions, and he said I could use some of his, but I'm not sure they make much sense. Here's what we came up with

Resolutions are bullshit. They are simply decisions, which you can make on any time. Giving one particular day any specific significance is ridiculous. January 1st isn't the beginning of something new, it is merely the continuation of the rest of the shit you were hauling around the day before.

That said, people tend to be very public about their resolutions. I suspect the collective reasoning is that if everyone knows, you'll feel more pressure to follow through because suddenly, everyone know you're a failure if you do not achieve these specific (and usually redundant) goals. Many also use it as a common source of commiseration, which is another reason to people publicize them.

I can't see any particular reason not to make such decisions, though. And in terms of paperwork, the start of the year is a good enough time to reassess things.

...why wouldn't one follow through with their goals? It seems counterproductive.

:O Whats a donkey show???

[multi_porpoise]

You really don't want to hear it, Naruto...

[iheartpeen0r]

Oh! They're live shows they have in some of the rural areas in Mexico. They wait until the audience is suitably drunk, then they bring a male donkey on stage and have someone perform favors on it. They're very popular with tourists.

Uh, thanks, Sai, that's more than enough...
