When the Meme-ing Gets Tough, the Tough Get Meme-ing!
I published a bunch of stupid memes a while back, with the intent of titillating! This stuff was originally published in the Journal Community. I decided to tweak it & migrate it over to the correct location (the Humor Community that didn't exist when it was originally conceived. 🤯)

Brahma Rakshasa and Fear: The Paradox of Knowledge and Torment
Brahma Rakshasa and Fear: The Paradox of Knowledge and Torment The concept of the Brahma Rakshasa finds its origins in Indian mythology, weaving a complex narrative about fear, knowledge, and the consequences of untamed ambition. A Brahma Rakshasa, as described in ancient Hindu texts, is a learned soul who, despite attaining immense knowledge of the Vedas and scriptures, falls prey to arrogance or fails to pass on his wisdom selflessly. As punishment, he is cursed to exist as a Rakshasa—a demonic entity. This being, who once embodied enlightenment, now roams the earth in a state of torment, consumed by an eternal struggle between wisdom and his monstrous form.

The Day I Decided to Say “Yes” to Life
It was a crisp autumn morning when I woke up feeling the weight of routine pressing down on me. My days had become a series of predictable patterns: wake up, work, eat, sleep, and repeat. I felt like a spectator in my own life, watching from the sidelines as opportunities passed me by. So, on a whim, I decided that today would be different. Today, I would say “yes” to every opportunity that came my way.

A Naked Dash Down Memory Lane
This will be the only Clemson story I’ll make you suffer through. It is a true story. It happened in the fall of 1973, and I wrote the story in 2006 in the library when I was on a trip to South Carolina visiting friends. I remembered every detail as if it happened the day before I wrote it.

And Then I Woke Up
As a boy, I believed that the most unfortunate gladiators were chosen to battle with beasts, and that the most fortunate were chosen to battle other gladiators. To face off against another human is a fair fight. Unlike the bear, he does not have claws that could rip off your whole face with one swing. Unlike the hyena, he does not have jaws that could snap your spine in one bite. He has a weapon, but so do you, and so none of you have an advantage. You are equals.

Six 1-Minute Habits To Save Hours Every Week

TEST DRIVE
THERE WAS ONLY ONE RULE... DON'T OPEN THE DOOR. There was a nagging thought in the back of my mind somewhere past the left brain, and a definite weight on the right; but It was the pertinent issue at hand. He pushed his arm forward to leave the building with the keys handed him by the service agent. A nod and glinted eye from the man across the room gave him courage to push one leg in the same direction and he was gone. Back inside the RV, the group was waiting for him to return with a price quote. He handed it over to the man in the wheelchair. He also handed him the keys. As he stepped toward the toilet room he heard the engine of the motorhome start. As it did, the doors locked... a mechanism designed for safety of the inhabitants. Seconds later the RV was moving, rolling toward the voyage of a test drive. Prostate issues kept him moving and darned if he couldn't remember what the man had said when he dropped the key into his hand. Whichever the word, Sammy, the man in the wheelchair, could handle his own needs and Veteran Affairs was giving him the money to buy this thing if they liked it. From the toilet room window he could see trees and traffic whizzing past. His bladder was not answering the immediacy of his own needs. Sammy and George could handle the drive around the cloverleaf entry and exit on the highway, and he hoped not to miss the view and excitement of the dashboard panel options. The RV sped up snatching him from the toilet seat causing him the throw his arms up to brace against a fall. As he did he smeared a small bit of feces and stood to wipe it off the wall. Minutes later he exited the room staggering toward the other three men near the front end. "Hey man, this thing is what we need! Ya know... there's thatthing my guy got goin on downstate somewhere..." He fumbled through his pockets for a note, "...here it is. It's a gig to last about a month or so." The faces looking back at him were reassuring enough to go on; "There's $25 thousand or so for the roles of cameo and a stand-in." "That's each man. No lines. The stand-in gets some movement role... I can't... I don't remember what they said but this is where we got to go for those to sign on. They just got to get a look at ya to decide if ya look like what they need.. youknow how that works. Sammy. that chair is your ticket in." Sammy's head slipped a bit as he struggled to be a part of the group and watch the road." Veteran Affairs was known to adapt vehicles for disabled veterans... as needed. This test drive would give him an idea of how to fill out his form.
