My dad never really taught me things men should know. What are some life hacks that only a dad could teach?

There are types of claps, much like different types of handshakes, and each type is appropriate in a different setting. An overly enthusiastic clap appears sarcastic, and sends the message you look down upon the person reading poetry.

Handshakes follow similar, perhaps arbitry guidelines. Then again, it's a type of body language, and just like any language, aren't the rules of language always a bit arbitrary?

It's quite interesting to read the analysis below the poem itself. I personally feel that the translation, although it captures the thoughts and ideas, fails to capture the beauty of the original. It's frustrating, that there is often a compromise when translating poetry, between preserving the form and preserving the message.

It seems to me that Nineteen Eighty-Four is a dystopic vision akin to that of what the Soviet Union once was, whereas A Brave New World is a more capitalist/Westernized version of the degradation of society. The Soviet Union having collapsed, it would appear that perhaps Huxley was indeed closer to the truth.

My family is all from St. Petersburg Russia. We're Jewish though, so as you might guess, all my parents/grandparents feel towards the communist system is condemnation. Nobody liked the Jews.

yet if a person's belief in a green sky does no harm, nor affects you or anyone else negativel, why bother arguing?

If a person tells you they believed the sky was green, tell them, "Sure thing"

the argument is based on the assumption, not so much that the universe contains humans, but in a more Buddhist-esque sense that the universe and humans are part of a single, unified whole.

Humans are self-aware, humans = universe, universe is self aware.

I feel that one might BECOME a comedian because his/her life is so fucked up, and not the other way around. The human psyche often isn't able to accept certain rhumbs head on, simple because if they tried it would break them. Humour is a defense mechanism; coping and deflection aren't necessarily so differerent from one another.
