  • It also acts as a filter in life .... whenever you meet unkind people, you stay away from them

    Whenever you meet people who would take advantage of your kindness ... you kindly stay away from them

    When you meet other kind people, you do your best to stay with them, live with them, work with them or encourage them

    Everyone always remember a few key things in life ... people remember others who were unkind to them ... people also remember people who were kind to them.

    Life is short and it gets shorter every moment ... whatever you do in life ... just be kind ... because most of the people you will ever meet you will only ever know for that one moment or just for a very short time.

  • So does mine .... even now

    But way back when I was built strong and 16, full of life, sugar, hormones, and caffeine (mom used to keep a pot of strong tea on the stove all the time) .... I felt like I could have moved a mountain ... and if someone had challenged me to move a mountain, I would have definitely tried.

    It sucks to grow old and weak

  • From an old Irish friend I've known for many years

    Whatever you do in life, no matter the situation or circumstances ..... always be kind

  • When going out into the cold during the winter, especially if you are going on a bit of multi hour journey .... poop first, even if you don't feel like it.

  • When I was a teen, I used to go to the local hockey rink in town to shoot the puck around. After a storm there would be three or four feet of snow covering the entire rink. We didn't have any machinery, snow blowers or equipment to use .... there was always a stack of shovels next to the boards somewhere. I'd think nothing of it and start shoveling with a shovel like the guy in this image and spend the entire day clearing snow. Usually a couple of other young guys like me at that age would show up and in all about three to four guys could clear all that snow in about six hours of work.

    It was always neat. I'd clear a small four foot wide patch of clear ice and young kids would show up and play a game on the patch of clear ice. For a break, I'd join their game for a while. Then go back to work.

    By the time half the ice was clear, larger games would start happening.

    By the time all the ice had been uncovered, we'd make one last pass to clear all the shaved ice off the surface, smooth everything down and the teens and adults would come out for a big game.

    But by that time it would be dark and I would be so exhausted that I'd watch for a while and then head home.

  • "Don't take a picture of me"

    Takes a picture anyway

  • Those films were supposed to be a warning .... NOT A GUIDE!

  • beautiful

  • It's Data time!

  • The shuttle pod could be used as a butter dish - lift up the shuttle pod which is just a cover for a plate of butter underneath.

  • Imagine an entire spice rack with the entire fleet parked in your kitchen pantry

  • I eject my spent plasma coils in your general direction

  • Also, I never noticed before until I posted the meme image ... that the rich old white guy gets to be carried away by two black security officers.

    In universe, it would have been a double slap in the face to lose all his money and realize that society no longer sees colour, race and identity as a barrier any more.

  • I always loved that episode because of how it made the concept of money and obscene wealth as a completely foreign and forgotten backward concept in the 24th century.

  • From barbarism to civilization requires a century; from civilization to barbarism needs but a day.

  • It was a time loop ... it could have been ten years, maybe more, maybe a hundred years .... I don't know
