Ziceri mai puțin intense
Fericire
Citat favorit: „Vei iubi viața”. / Favourite quote: „You’ll love life”.
Sunt fericit. Uneori trimis, uneori nervos, dar fericit.
Îmi place citatul pe care l-am ales. Citat din mine. (Oh, no, the audacity!)
În general sunt fericit, împăcat cu mine, bucuros chiar.
Uneori nu sunt bucuros, dar fericit și împăcat cu mine sunt cam tot timpul.
Și dacă am nevoie să mă relaxez și să stau liniștit, pot găsi în mine resursele să fac asta.
Hast du schon einmal ein Mädchen geküsst?
Das wurde ich einmal von einem Mädchen in einem aggressiven, fast schon mobbenden Ton in einem Theater-Outdoor-Kurs gefragt.
So, als wäre das etwas, worauf man stolz sein müsste – ein Zeichen von Erfolg.
Choisir un photographe
J’avais recommandé à quelques amis choisir une photographe.
À un certain moment, j’ai dit : „Vous devez choisir un photographe par son portefeuille, et certainement pas par des recommandations. En ce regard, je connais un photographe.”.
J’ai reçu cette réponse : „Ah, c’est très intéressant. Quel est le nom du photographe ?”.
Reading people
One of my teachers said at one point – „I just looked at one person, and I instantly knew that there’s an issue with that person.”
I don’t especially like this way of „reading” people.
I think it was Rand Fishkin who said something like „we tend to have more and more prejudice, as we meet more and more people.”
I think Rand is right, and it’s unavoidable to think about others, to judge them, to have prejudice.
But you could at least refrain from making statements like „I know he’s weirdo.” in front of a class.
The case for memes as a new form of comics
„It’s undeniable that the rise of the Internet had a profound impact on cartooning as a profession, giving cartoonists both new tools and a new publishing and/or distribution medium. Online culture also spawned the emergence of viral memes in the late 1990s. Michelle Ann Abate, an education professor at The Ohio State University, argues in a paper published in INKS: The Journal of the Comics Studies Society, that memes—specifically, image macros—represent a new type of digital comic, right down to the cognitive and creative ways in which they operate.”
