It's been too long since I've posted a web comic, so today I'm headed back to John Campbell's pictures for sad children, which always seems to catch my mood.
So there I was, arm hooked up to the machine, watching my plasma swirl away into a bag while the morning news dribbled across the screen like a bad fever dream. And what were they showing? A "riot" in Melbourne, allegedly. The sort of riot where the real thugs wear body armour, carry pepper spray and look like they just walked off the set of RoboCop. The people they were beating? A ragtag crew of teenagers and old hippies—probably fresh out of a drum circle, still smelling of patchouli. But sure, let's call it a riot. Now, here's where it really gets good. I mentioned this spectacle to a few people later, thinking maybe they'd share my outrage or, at the very least, give a damn. But no. What did I get instead? A smirk, a chuckle, and—oh, the pièce de résistance—"You should really just let it go." Let it go? Yeah, let me uncork a nice, overpriced cup of coffee, sit back with my legs crossed, and soak in the latest reality TV trash. Why bother caring when ...

1. Don't think about white bear! Hey... hold on... I said don't!!!
(the thing is - you can not stop thinking about it unless you imagine it first)
2. My brother Indars uses a technique on his child since his birth.
- He totally avoids using the word "no".
- He always says what to do and never tells what not to do - never!!!

For instance. If his son is trying to disassemble TV remote control he will say: "Look, here is something interesting and divers his attention" or engage in different activity.

The reason why he does not us "no" is to liberate his son from psychological phenomena of "no" - there are no restrictions - everything is possible.
Have a good day, Kris.
I have this problem all the time. Oh to be a kid again and not worry!
