When youâve squeezed the logic of convenience to its maximum.

Why donât people in Athens wake up early?
Because Dawn is tough on Greece.
Padaboom!
âTough on grease, soft on handsâ is a trademarked slogan from 1994. There are âGreeceâ punsâŚ
(Just to be clearer for Non-american TV-viewers. Although we all know youâre the unipolar momentâŚ)
Thanks for the explanation. I never even heard of the brand, and I lived in the US. ![]()
The biggest problem with Greece.
Every view is ruined, everyone has Greece-y hair, and they just donât care!
This is true thing which happened yesterday evening.
In afternoon, when I went the market to purchase vegetables, one uncle came, who knows my father. He came and told me to participate in **drawing competition.** I was not able to say no that moment, hence he considered that as yes !
Then, I told this to mother, and she said to me that I should go and participate in it. The biggest trouble for me was, that I am not very good at drawing. But anyhow, I showed up myself there.
The apparatus which I took there: geometry box, pencil, eraser, sharpener, pencil color.
We were provided a big sheet to draw. Around me, there were many participants who have very good drawing, and many of them showed themselves up with wholesome amount of apparatus. And they were drawing fast and good.
Now, what I drew.
Firstly, I divided the sheet into 4 partitions.
In 1st partition, I drew all the geometrical methods which I learned in school, like angle bisector, perpendicular bisector, angle in semicircle, etc. To make it fancy, I shaded slightly
.
In 2nd partition, I drew 2D shapes, and then 3Dfied them, and colored them a little.
In 3rd partition, I divided this further to 3 parts. In A, I made FBDs of mechanical figures, to make it interesting, I replace the springs with resistors and capacitors in few of them, and lighted up the circuit. I then colored/tinted them completely by giving time. In C, I made ray optics tracing diagrams for lens, mirror, Nicol prism, and inserted multiple medium(colored) in between.
Now in 4th partition, I was not having any idea what should I draw. Hence, I waited for few minutes. Then, I wrote my name in 3D with various colors, applied shadows, darken them up.
Still some space were remaining. To fill them, I put up my signatures with varied looks and colors.

Then, the look was of whole sheet was not optimal, as concepts seem to get intermixed, to me. Therefore, I made thick black borders across the 4 different concepts in order to separate them.
After these much efforts, my masterpiece was ready ! Then I gladly submitted my work to invigilator, and went home.
Now, the fact remains is how well I had fared in the competitionâŚ

Oh I thought overly pricy eggs was a local Swedish thing. ![]()
No need for the goose that lays golden eggs.
Iâm thinking of getting a few chickens for next year, at our âdatcha/sommarstugaâ (summer getaway).





My wife said, âYou werenât even listening, were you?â
I thought to myself, âThatâs a strange way to start a conversation!â ![]()
Top left! This story makes my head spin!



How do you start a teddy bear race?
Ready, teddy, go!
A woman gets on a bus with her baby. The bus driver says: âUgh, thatâs the ugliest baby Iâve ever seen!â The woman walks to the rear of the bus and sits down, fuming. She says to a man next to her: âThe driver just insulted me!â The man says: âYou go up there and tell him off. Go on, Iâll hold your monkey for you.â
