From Hagakure: The Book of the Samurai:
Because of some business, Morooka Hikoemon was called upon to swear before the gods concerning the truth of a certain matter. But he said, “A samurai’s word is harder that metal. Since I have impressed this fact upon myself, what more can the gods and Buddhas do?” and the swearing was cancelled.
Be of sound virtue, and never stand being questioned of it.
Dammit!
Oh, Oops! Cancelled you say?
Ah, Fuuu- udddgge!
Well, that what I meant to say.. But what came out was:
Fu…
Oh wait..
Virtue has a sound?
It’s not a Bronx Cheer is it? The sound of one hand clapping? The Sound of Music? The sound of hippie flesh being, uh soundly, bitch-slapped into their next sorry incarnation (probably a cockroach) by the S.M.I.T.E. Lazer?
What sound could a Virtue sound if a Virtue could sound sound?
Again, I am infinite in my dorkiness, but who cares.. I amuse myself (if no-one else.)
I either need to get a life or a new job… Not sure which. Hmmmm….
Yeah, I tried saying something like that in traffic court once. Then I had to serve an over-night for being in “contempt”, whatever that means.
I said, “But judge, I feel pretty content saying that you’re a jackoff.”
Seems I minced my words.
[A samurai’s word is harder that metal.]
Just one itsy bitsy typo, sir.
Oh Joshua, Joshua, Joshua….No, no, no!! We do NOT correct Frank’s grammar! That’s a basic IMAO no-no. You’d better be looking over your shoulder.
LokiDoki, You are amusing me.
lol at Mr. Bubble 🙂
Hey, I didn’t write it. That was a cut and paste job.
Word is bond.
While few(s) words are infallible,
one may aspire to hold themselves to their bonds.
That was good, LokiDoki. Your amusing to me too. Get a new job is my advice, it can change your life in the process.
