A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men

With election day right around the corner it seems as though many of us get carried away with political fervor. Thinking straight and logically weighing the stances of different politicians, we tend to fuss over all kinds of ideological boundaries. It can get very overwhelming. And if you ask me, it's so not worth the stress. "But Sam!" you may say, "This is your future we're talking about! Have some sense!" And I will say to you, "Never!" Indeed. The only good sense is nonsense.

And it is now, during this age of such geopolitical turbulence, that nonsense needs to be celebrated unabashedly. Seriously, people need to stop taking things so seriously. "It's all the same, despite the difference," right?

So here are two links (assignment two *cough *cough wink ) detailing the benefits of nonsense. Two of the infinite reasons you should stop worrying about politics, and religion, and education, and....well, worrying in general. Let your mind slip. Embrace the discord. For even shlagortumblinskovech is a mental armchair compared to the headache of our government.
