She was in a bus, on the way home from the art gallery, writing a letter in her mind, while the bus climbing up a really steep slope…and slipped. For a few seconds the bus lost control and everybody in … Continue reading →

作为一个不高又不壮，不帅又不酷的男子，我总是好心好意地劝告身边年轻的姐妹们：人不可貌相，好看又殷勤的男人不一定是好东西。 当然，这不表示木讷无趣的丑男们就是理想对象。 实际上，男人没有一个是好东西（这个，其实大家心里都清楚吧）。 不过，这篇短文的开场主角应该是女人。 读王文华的书，其中提到他在日本的经历。在和生意伙伴光顾娱乐场所时，一位“气质美女”，一位“如果在街上遇到，一定以为是…弹钢琴…的气质美女”走到他跟前，向他sell服务 :“如果你给我??(忘记是多少了)日元，我就帮你XX。” 教训：人不可貌相，美女不一定纯洁有气质(当然，不排除以上那位女孩会弹钢琴的可能性)。 年少的王文华，故作怪懒/兰席地说“如果你帮我XX，应该是你付我钱才对…” 结果气质美女一句不回，直接去寻找其他潜在客户，留下一脸失落的王文华… (对了，有时候被吓到的人，不知道如何反应，就会说出象他那种怪懒的话。所以，遇到这样的人时，请不要赌懒，而是可怜一下他们…还有，“一脸失落”是我自己想象的…) 好了，故事结束。 是不是嫌这个故事太短了？那么，来点bonus吧…(鼓声请响起)… 如果时光倒流，王文华改掉故作怪懒的习惯，和气质美女成功谈成这笔生意，你猜，会有什么事发生？ 答案：nothing。 如果他购买了该服务，该气质美女的故事会出现在书里吗？ 不会。 而这又意味着什么？看官们酒足饭饱没事做的时候再慢慢揣摩吧…

The questions like “Should we tolerate foul language?”, “Should we allow people to use foul language?”, “Why is there foul language?”… killed quite some brain cells of mine some years ago. Even did a research on the f-word. F-word? Well, … Continue reading →

All the boundaries broke down… all the lines we draw between stuff, in mind… business vs personal, illusion vs reality… i cant see the difference anymore… (i don’t know how to clearly express this… it just happened… something happened, something … Continue reading →

Is there a difference between the mails to people you really care and those to the people you “have to” deal with? Of course there is. In my understanding, the concept “unfair” means treating people who give you love and … Continue reading →

“Does a pro footballer play or work?” A friend asked, with the cunning and naughty look… Hmm…well… “A pro footballer isn’t smart enough to know the difference,” Easy.

[Originally posted a couple of years back in a closed community blog] Happiness begins where selfishness ends. Discipline yourself and others won’t need to. Surround yourself with strong opinionated people. Tell the truth. That way you don’t need to remember … Continue reading →
