So I was wrong! I’m not usually wrong and I don’t really like the feeling. But this time it’s different. It’s quite a good sensation to predict your own failure and being wrong. The last post I preemptively epitomized as unappreciated got 11346 likes.
A few days before I posted witty wordplay with a quote from James Altucher that got 15843 likes:
Increase the value of words, make them few.
Previous and recent successes inspire me. Public acclamation is not important for me. I keep telling that to myself, but if I measured the amount of effort I put into something after creating something “successful” I would immediately conclude that that is nt the truth. Fortunately I own no such measurement instrument. Yesterday after creating the John Lennon misquote I created yet again another post. At the moment I write this the balnce between likes and dislikes is positive 11576.
The truth about Man and Woman. This time for real.
A hopeful novice in the arts of funny imagery creation became a disenchanted bitter snob. Now I’m again becoming hopeful. A hopeful bitter snob.
I give you my unappreciated 9gag post, number 11:
TWILIGHT: The 9/11 of literature.

I must procrastinate.
I thought about creating a blog about procrastination and never posting on it as a smart joke. I never did it.

I’ve recently fell in love with misquotes. First I found a page with possible solutions for the perenial dilemma “Why did the chicken cross the road?”
If you ask this question, you deny your own chicken-nature.
Buddha
The fish.
Salvador Dali
It was the logical next step after coming down from the trees.
Darwin
For fun.
Epicurus
To die. In the Rain.
Ernest Hemingway
It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, chicken were crossing roads, chicken were staying behind…
Charles Dickens
Chickens at rest tend to stay at rest. Chickens in motion tend to cross the road.
Isaac Newton
Then, after finding out about Pinterest (by the way, you can follow me somewhere on this page. Search for it if you want to). I found this awesome misquote by Abraham Lincoln.
Hipster Abraham.
I realised its potential and I did a some misquoting of my own:
John “The Prophet” Lennon

I didn’t disappoint you!
Professor Sybil Trelawney would be proud of me. I got -14 likes and a single comment. At least the comment made me think highly of myself. No, it wasn’t a praising comment stating my obvious intellectual superiority and my good looks. The comment was as follows:
Didn’t understood a shit.
by Diogo Alexandre Dos Santos (Top Commenter)
Calm down! Don’t start stealing and sharing this quote. It’s copyright infringement. More

To mix things up I’m going to play the role of Professor Sybil Trelawney and do some future-telling. This is not an unappreciated 9gag post. Not yet. I’m posting this here before anywhere else.
Enjoy:

1933 Was … a Year
1933 WAS A BAD YEAR
How can I be so sure, when I don’t know if 2012 is a bad year? I’m living it.
I tend to believe what I’m told if it’s printed on a few dozens or hundreds of pieces of paper neatly assembled; or on a e-ink screen. So when John Fante said 1933 was a bad year I believed him. I believed him right up until now. Two seconds ago I went to Wikipedia to make sure. He lied. Everybody lies. When I finished this sentence: “Two seconds ago I went to Wikipedia to make sure”, more than 15 seconds had gone by. Everybody lies.
According to Wikipedia, the “Year 1933 (MCMXXXIII) was a common year starting on Sunday of the Gregorian calendar.” Maybe he was lying or maybe he was telling the truth. Maybe it is common for years to be bad. Maybe badness is in the nature of years. If that is so Fante misnamed his book:
1933 WAS A COMMON YEAR
