Uninspirational Thought of the Day

Seems like everyone's into inspirational thoughts. They're on screensavers, in email sigs, on calendars, on widgets... I'm so inspired I could puke. So to help balance everything out, I'm going to contribute uninspirational thoughts. And since they're uninspirational, they'll not show up every single day, yet I'll still call them Uninspirational Thought of the Day.

Uninspirational Thought of the Day:

One who does not risk failure, will not fail.

I love that Traffic song "Sometimes I Feel So Uninspired" (which actually seems like a load of bollocks coming from Steve Winwood).

I wanted to bring that up, O'Tim, but I couldn't remember who did it, and wasn't inspired to Google.

How about this:

"It's hard to soar with the eagles when you aren't even a fucking bird to begin with."

or even...
"I am in a great mood today. You watch some bastard spoil it."

It depends on the inspirational. "This too shall pass" works wonders when I'm constipated.

I like being reminded that so long as I do my very best, sometimes it still isn't enough.

Granny Snark said...

Okay Don, I'm going to remind you of that every single day, maybe a couple of times a day. You can count on me! :-D

I ran a downer thought for the day for a whole month on my old blog. Hmm, let me see [wavy lines and harp music] Yes, it was back in September of ought-six ...

I remember, SG. That's why I called mine "Uninspirational Thought of the Day," so as to avoid a lawsuit.

Steven Wright's got a whole bunch of these... Collectively he calls them his 'act'... Here's one:
"Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy".

Steven Wright is in my top 5 all-time favorite comics.

Cheezy said...

Oh yeah, Wright's class :) How about this one:

"I stayed up all night playing poker with tarot cards.
I got a full house and four people died."

Here's mine:

"If you can't remember it, it never happened."

Wow - Jack Handey would be proud of some of these!
