Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary – Today’s Word: Bloval

We’ve all done pointless, but difficult things. Perhaps it was completely filling in the “o”s i  War and Peace. Perhaps it was balancing an egg. Perhaps it was balancing an egg on its pointy end. The skill and determination needed to bring these efforts to a success are truly worthy of our praise, if only they weren’t so useless.

But we don’t have a word to describe these utterly unimportant achievements.

It’s high time to correct this oversight.

Paul’s Awesome English Dictionary – Today’s Word: Anti-productivity

We’ve all heard of productivity. We all know what it means. If we earned advanced degrees in economics or business,  this concept enters our dreams in dark and mysterious ways nearly every night.

Strange to say, use of productivity’s opposite is virtually non-existent.

It’s high time to correct this oversight.

Why the Greek Gods Died Off

According to the ancient Greeks,  you tried hard to make your way the underworld, Hades. Hades was not as fun as life on Earth, but still much better than wandering the Earth forever as invisible and restless spirit. So you started your afterlife journey to Hades. Soon, you arrived at the river Styx. It was too wide and cold to swim. And really how man yancient Greeks new how to swim?

So, your only viable way to cross was by using Charon theBboatman’s ferry. Charon demanded a gold coin as his fee. No gold coin, no passage. No Hades.

So you made sure to have a gold coin on you in case you died. However, Achilles was cheap. He didn’t want give Charon a gold coin, when he the brave Achilles could spend it while alive. So he had only a chocolate coin to bay the Boatman. But as the chocolate coin came clad in gold-colored foil, it fooled Charon. Achilles thus crossed the river and made it into Hades.

But eventually there was a hot day in Hell. Achilles’ gold coin melted. He, Charon, had been cheated. If Achilles felt bold enough to pay his way with chocolate, why then all future Greeks would do the same.  The red mist descended around Charon. He wanted to kill every Greek hed meet. As all those people would already be dead, he wouldn’t even be able to do that.

He decided, there and then, to never again ferry people to Hades. Greeks soon learned of Charon’s no-ferry list. No Hades for them. So now what was the point of believing and sacrifing to the gods? So the Greeks stopped their sacrifices. The gods, deprived of their sustenance soon faded away.

This is why we no longer have Zeus, Athena, Poseidon, and the rest of that lot.

What I Want for Christmas

I want one of these for Christmas. It’s easy to drive and park. It gets good gas mileage. It looks sturdy. All I need is to mount two machine guns in front and one on the back and none of the oafs in their RVs or SUVs would give me any guff.
