“Most people make the mistake of thinking design is what it looks like... People think it’s this veneer - that the designers are handed this box and told, ’Make it look good!’ That's not what we think design is. It's not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.” - Steve Jobs

RIP George Carlin


The most unfair thing about life is the way it ends. I mean, life is tough. It takes up a lot of your time. What do you get at the end of it? A Death! What’s that, a bonus? I think the life cycle is all backwards. You should die first, get it out of the way. Then you live in an old age home. You get kicked out when you’re too young, you get a gold watch, you go to work. You work forty years until you’re young enough to enjoy your retirement. You do drugs, alcohol, you party, you get ready for high school. You go to grade school, you become a kid, you play, you have no responsibilities, you become a little baby, you go back into the womb, you spend your last nine months floating …and you finish off as an orgasm.

George Carlin
