Pop philosophy #1

Announcing a regular feature bringing to you new-age wisdom culled from the most penetrating of modern thinkers and seething seers, along with my helpful commentary.

On the need for a strong interplay between the brain and the body:
"A body without a brain, is like an empty commode"
- Yoko Ono, after flushing out Lennon from the Beatles.

... and we all know that there is nothing like an empty commode in the morning to really shit your day.

Sharma's Corollary: A body with a brain is full of shit.

On increasing disquiet in the World:
"Battles are seen by people with fire in their eyes."
- Wise Prince Vader, you know who.

No wonder I am relatively at peace. Fire would melt my contacts. Also explains why Prince Vader used thick goggles. Suggests that the way to peace is through a war on carrots. Kill those carrots!

On controlling one's ego:
"Miniaturize your inner 'I', and the World is your peanut."
- Jambelezi Wattambanga, Chief of the Lower Zambesi.

Don't ask me how they heard of miniaturzation in the Lower Zambesi. Must be his penetrating insight. If you are allergic to nuts, too bad, but you will get your choice of plastic pacifiers.

This way to Dr. Sharma's pop philosophy

That is the tragedy of my life. I have tons of admirers, all of whom prefer to remain secret. Afraid to let your questionable taste be known?
