Jupiter has placed two saddlebags on us: the one full of our vices behind our backs, the one heavy with the vices of others hung in front of us, on our chest.
For this reason we cannot see our own faults, but as soon as others make mistakes, we become censors.

expense of others.
The fox had carelessly fallen into a well and was held captive there,
because the bank was quite high. A thirsty goat happened to be in the same place and immediately asked her if the water was...
the salary is so low. Like 46K euro/year. That's quite ridiculous given that I have 5 years experience in analytics. My peers told me my market rate is around 55-60K euro/year. But given that the company is a startup, maybe they just want someone senior with an entry level salary. Well the...
Whoever tries to bite with cruel teeth one who can bite even more, will be portrayed in this apologue.
An adder entered a blacksmith's workshop. While he was feeling to see if there was anything to eat, he bit into a file. This, hard, in reply: "Silly, why do you try to hurt me with your teeth...
The boar, splashing about, muddied the puddle in which the horse used to quench his thirst. A quarrel ensued. The steed, furious with the beast, asked the man for help and taking him on his back, he went back to his enemy. The knight shot arrows at the boar, and, after killing it, it is told...
Guys, it seems I'm heading towards Level 8 on GBAtemp. Exciting news, ain't it?
But I'm currently stuck on Level 7 with 0 XP left to reach Level 8.
How come? How do you explain this? I dunno. Maybe you do, maybe you don't.
Feel free to leave a comment and share your thoughts.

Driven by hunger, the fox was trying to take the grapes from a high vine, jumping with all his strength, but he could not touch it; then leaving he said:
"It is not yet ripe; I do not want to pick it unripe."
Whoever belittles in words what he is not able to do, will have to refer to himself...
Who is born unfortunate, not only spends a miserable life, but his cruel and unfortunate destiny haunts him even after death.
The Gauls of Cybele used to carry around a donkey loaded with baggage to go begging. When it died of fatigue and beatings, they skinned it and made drums out of its...
I've been busy as hell trying to fix the Button Test's bug, and I've finally fixed it. You can now press all the buttons at once. This is a HUGE win!
I also overhauled the startup sequence, changed the title screen a bit, and turned the useless and boring "Test Grid" into a colorful rainbow...
Some pretty interesting things happened and I thought I might as well share those things.
Audio recording of the thingie for the events.
I forgot to mention that he was sexist and homophobic. And did I say that he's an ass? Cause he is. (and he made a suicide threat before the one I mentioned...
Ooo just look at me nearly missing the "still not dead " entry for August
But yeah to be quite honest it's not been a good month. All the projects I have been working on have pretty much come to a halt due to one reason or another. Infact one has hit a roadblock for 2 reasons. The first is that...
The peacock went to Juno, complaining that she had not attributed to him the voice of the nightingale; this, indeed, aroused the admiration of all the birds, while he was mocked as soon as he emitted his voice. Then the goddess, to console him, said: "But you win him in beauty, you win him in...
An Athenian saw Aesop playing walnuts in the midst of a crowd of little boys; he stopped and mocked him as if he were demented. The old man, more suited to the role of mocker than of mocked, as soon as he noticed it, loosened a bow and placed it in the middle of the road: "Hey!" he said. "I'm...
A cockerel was looking for something to eat in a dunghill, and found there
a pearl. "What an unworthy place you are in," he said, "precious as you are! If those who are greedy of your worth had seen you, you would already have returned to the splendor of your former time. But I have found you...

Socrates (whose death I would not flee, so long as I attained a glory like
his, and would accept malevolence, to be absolved when I am dust),
Socrates was building himself a little house, when a commoner, I know not who, as it usually...
Remember the Mario Party Superstars leak thread? An user who goes by the name of "Catastrophic" made an insulting post against me. I'm glad it got removed by mods, then.
Don't ever support this guy, he's nothing but a total idiot. :cry:
A man saw hanging in a butcher's shop, among various goods and foodstuffs, a monckey and asked what It tasted like. Then the butcher jokingly said: "As is the head, so is the taste".
I consider this joke more witty than true, because I have often found
bad, the good; and many bad looking ones...
I like to take dressing up for Halloween pretty seriously, as it's the only night I can dress up and use my fashion skills with no limits.
This year, I'm coming up with a persona, more or less. I have this old Chinese Communist police jacket with an official badge and everything.
It's pretty...
