Most Viewed Opinionated Blogs (1,910)

It's nothing new and has been around for years, but it always makes me laugh, especially when I interview some younger people that talk about how they always give 110% all the time. This is a strictly ..... mathematical viewpoint... and it goes like this:

What Makes 100%?. What does it mean to give MORE than 100%?

Ever wonder about those people who say they are giving more than 100%? We have all been to those meetings where someone wants you to give over 100%.

How about achieving 103%?

What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you answer these questions:

If: A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

Is represented as: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

B-U-L-L-S-H-I-T
2+21+12+12+19+8+9+20 = 103%

A-S-S-K-I-S-S-I-N-G
1+19+19+11+9+19+19+9+14+7 = 118%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty, that while Hard work and Knowledge will get you close, and Attitude will get you there. Its the Bullshit and a** Kissing that will put you over the top.

Now you know why some people are where they are!

I’ve never seen a better explanation than this formula…………..
how true it is.

I got this story from a Facebook friend. I have no idea who originally wrote this.

Harry Truman was a different kind of President. He probably made as many, or more important decisions regarding our nation's history as any of the other 42 Presidents preceding him. However, a measure of his greatness may rest on what he did after he left the White House.

The only asset he had when he died was the house he lived in, which was in Independence Missouri. His wife had inherited the house from her mother and father and other than their years in the White House, they lived their entire lives there.

When he retired from office in 1952 his income was a U.S. Army pension reported to have been $13,507.72 a year. Congress, noting that he was paying for his stamps and personally licking them, granted him an 'allowance' and, later, a retroactive pension of $25,000 per year.

After President Eisenhower was inaugurated, Harry and Bess drove home to Missouri by themselves. There was no Secret Service following them.

When offered corporate positions at large salaries, he declined, stating, "You don't want me. You want the office of the President, and that doesn't belong to me. It belongs to the American people and it's not for sale."

Even later, on May 6, 1971, when Congress was preparing to award him the Medal of Honor on his 87th birthday, he refused to accept it, writing, "I don't consider that I have done anything which should be the reason for any award, Congressional or otherwise."

As president he paid for all of his own travel expenses and food.

Modern politicians have found a new level of success in cashing in on the Presidency, resulting in untold wealth. Today, many in Congress also have found a way to become quite wealthy while enjoying the fruits of their offices. Political offices are now for sale.

Good old Harry Truman was correct when he observed, "My choices in life were either to be a piano player in a whore house or a politician. And to tell the truth, there's hardly any difference!

I say dig him up and clone him!

People you trust, love and care about may do something against you at times that pains.A person whom you never believed could disappoint you.
When it happens, do i give confidence so easily? What can be the cost of confidence?

All my blogging friends, Mimi has and hopefully Candy AKA My home,....................

Its like punching people in the face but with words,..............................

After months of capitulation, Elon Musk signs the Twitter deal and all those who were fearful of their 'freedom of speech' being repressed can sing happy phrases.
On day one, the axe swings and some top executives disappeared. This morning I see he also fired a woman who was a key figure in permanently banning Donald Trump.

Does that mean he will be invited back to spew more lies that got him banned in the first place? I wager yes and that will only accentuate his ability to say literally anything he wants without fear of repercussion. Anything goes as the worlds greatest con artist will have millions of loyal followers and exercise no restraint.

Thanks Elon, you're my hero!

I have been wondering if the blog board is safe to reenter? Does anyone have any answer?

This video is from 10 years ago. Was the prediction accurate? You be the judge.

The decline of fertility rate in Western civilization is dropping fast while Muslim fertility rate in Europe and the US is rising high.

What decade would you like to live your life again, for me without a doubt the sixties,

So.. we're seeing rainbows everywhere. with the new law that the US government made, there must be pros and cons. I, myself, am againts the law. not that I have homophobic or whatsoever. I tolerate their condition. yes. I have some friends that are LGBTs. I don't mind with them as long as they don't overacting or too vulgar. Because basically, PDA is just disgusting.

What I disagree is the law of the marriage itself. For me, marriage is supposed to create another human being. it's about a man and a woman, attracted by something and they're married and have children of their own. or maybe they adopt kids and nurture the kids together.

Maybe I'm a conventional person. On my mund, a family consists of a father, a mother and a child (or children). There's no a mother and a mother or a father and a father.a child needs both genders to be able to grow. a girl needs a mother to be a role model of how a woman should be, to help her when she has her first menstruation and all the womens thingies. a daughter also needs a father to be a role model on how a man should treat his woman.

the same thing goes to the son. a son needs a father how to be a gentleman and how to treat a woman (in a good way). a son also needs a mother for him to see what kind of person that he wants from a lady.

when the parents are the same gender, a child wont be able to see the difference. maybe, you will say, well I can be a mother and a father. yes, maybe we can, some single parent does it. But there will ve something missing in the childs life.


and from what I read, most people that are againts the law, are not againts the people. the supporters will mention tolerance. We tolerate the individuals. we don't mind (at least I don't mind). but I disagree with the law. not the person.

another thing about this debates, all my friends, who are pro woth the law, act like we're judging them, they are full of hatred toward the cons. while the cons, just giving informations. not a single bullying word came out from them.


anyway.. what I want to say is.. we all have this freedom of speech. people are allowed to speak their mind. but when the ones that speak out are the ones that againts us, we burst out in anger.

so, where is the freedom of speech??

I'm not condemning you who are pro to the law. I'm just writing to speak out my opinions. the law has been legalised anyway (not only in america, but also in other countries).

Have a good day/evening!
