sagebrush Posted March 3, 2017 enjoyed the video of the cat pawing at the screen. Â l like how it would interrupt with occasional back paw cleaning. Â someone once posted a video some time ago that was really cute because it was so true on animal behavior.. it was of a dog and it was growling about its own back leg.....not realizing it was his own leg... Â humor is great. Â I remember once years ago hiking for days and long drive to get to home from backpacking trip laughing so much with this young military police who went on the trip. I cannot remember what was so funny but I laughed the most I had ever laughed before. Â I like good laughs- sweet cat too. animals are real characters at times. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

futuredaze Posted March 13, 2017 The image is funny, but I have no idea what the text means. It looks sort of Russian, sort of gibberish. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Taomeow Posted March 13, 2017 The image is funny, but I have no idea what the text means. It looks sort of Russian, sort of gibberish.  Yeah, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference.  On top it says, Young and Wise On the bottom, a play on two proverbs stringed together into a syllogism of sorts -- "knowledge is strength" and "got strength, don't need brains." 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Taomeow Posted March 13, 2017 The meaning of "got strength, don't need brains" in the original is sarcastic, it is used in situations when, e.g., someone breaks something by trying to open it or fix it.  I was thinking just recently that all the arguing on this site and elsewhere about this or that "correct" translation is pointless. Even the context doesn't necessarily help. What helps is familiarity with situational use. And that's oral transmissions.  Does the Bible really teach the believers that "money is the answer to everything?" (Ecclesiastes 10:19) Does Laozi really mean what he says verbatim, "Tao can be told, tao is not eternal?" (Chapter 1) 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cold Posted March 13, 2017 How much information / meaning is conveyed by tone, posture, gestures, facial expression etc. I often think in situational terms, ethics, behavior is predicated on so much... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AussieTrees Posted March 14, 2017 Yeah, sometimes it's hard to tell the difference.  On top it says, Young and Wise On the bottom, a play on two proverbs stringed together into a syllogism of sorts -- "knowledge is strength" and "got strength, don't need brains."  Is it legal to have brains as well as strength? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

C T Posted March 20, 2017 After returning from their first ever holiday to England, an Indian man from Bangalore asked his wife, "Do I look like a foreigner, dear?" "Certainly not, Jayanthi! Why this strange question?"Â Â "Oh, i am finding it strange too. When I was waiting for you at the shoe shop on Oxford Street, this kid walked up to me and asked if I was a foreigner."Â 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

s1va Posted May 20, 2017 Quote A lady buys a new car for her husband and hires a new driver. At the end of the first day, the man complains to his wife. “Fire this driver! He had me nearly killed three times in just one day!” “Don’t be so hasty, honey,” the wife replies calmly. “Give him another chance!”  Came across this on a topic discussing destiny vs free will. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
