Came across these funny memes from www.quickmeme.com and was instantly intrigued because I the memes are not only funny, but are sometimes very close to what I experience on a daily basis. So, here are some classic 'Socially Awkward' memes - and I mean we all have some degree of social awkwardness - some more than others. Related posts:

Social DNA

d dot b — Fri, 23 Dec 2011 14:54:27 +0000

According to the folks at Energy Diamond, these are the keys, well in terms of balancing them, to achieve positive/optimal social DNA. I think they may be onto something because having your social network full of one set of people does not really do much in giving you a balance viewpoint on things. I know many people that only want to surround their world with similar thinking people - I think this is an attempt to lessen arguments & protect their sense of self (the overly religious do this a lot).

Contractors Hyperbole

d dot b — Sat, 08 Oct 2011 22:16:20 +0000

I find the Home Improvement Industry to be a very challenging field, its either 'Do-It Yourself' or hire a Contractor. This post will focus on the latter, and their interesting rhetoric. Recently had to 'monitor' (be present) at my Mother's house while several contractors vied for a chance to complete a floor tiling project; and I have noticed several 'Talking Points' that ALL Contractors seem to have. So here are some Talking Points that I have observed, and my interpretation of what they really mean: No related posts. Related posts brought to you by Yet Another Related Posts Plugin.

You’re a F#*cking Human Being

A rant by UFC announcer, ex-Fear Factor host, comedian Joe Rogan off of his podcast; an interesting take on life, religion, politics, and such. Don't really get why they autotuned Joe Rogan's voice, and added Daft Punk's 'Around the world', but that mix, and the visuals makes for a good 5 minutes of engaging content. Related posts:
