The difference between sex, super sex and love.
Girl asks her mother: What is sex?
Mother: Sex is when you stop a car driven by a man who offers you a meal in a restaurant, and then you spend some time with him in the hotel room, have sex with him once, and then each one go on their way and you have a hundred dollars bill extra in your pocket.
The girl then asks her mother: What is Super Sex?
Mother: Super sex is when you stop a limousine driven by Chauffeur and a stylish man is sitting in the back who takes you to a luxurious villa, gives you a scrumptious meal with distinctive Caviar...and then you spend the night together in bed and engage in sex more than once, and then you part with an envelope containing a thousand dollars in your pocket.
And then the girl asks her mother: What is love?
Mother: Love is a lie invented by men so that they can have sex with you for free.

Don't mess with the dentist
The other day, a bloke went to a Dentist's office to have a tooth pulled. The Dentist took out a freezing needle to give him a shot.
Patient: No way"! No needles! "I hate needles.
The Dentist starts to hook up the laughing gas and the man immediately objected.
Patient: I can't do the gas thing either; the thought of having the gas mask on is suffocating me
Dentist: Any objection with taking pills?
Patient: No Objection. I am fine with pills
Dentist: Here is a Viagra tablet
Patient: Wow! I didn't know Viagra works as a pain killer
Dentist: It doesn't. But it will give you something to hold on to when I pull your tooth

Why the iPad Is the Most Hated Gadget Ever | Cult... →
Well said. Apple and Amazon is selling content. That what makes their tablet profitable. You can’t say that about Android tablet makers cause they don’t own the content, Google does.
Android tablet makers are faced with the choice between making a little money on each tablet but selling few, or losing money on each tablet and selling many.

parislemon:
How dare Steve Jobs say Flash sucks on mobile! It’s going to be perfected any day now! And when that happens — again, very soon — the iPhone is so fucked!
LOL.

Enlightenment
The Buddha explained how to handle insult and maintain compassion.
One day Buddha was walking through a village. A very angry and rude young man came up and began insulting him. “You have no right teaching others, he shouted.” You are as stupid as everyone else. You are nothing but a fake.”
Buddha was not upset by these insults. Instead he asked the young man “Tell me,...
