Meet the Penguins: JIZR*

We happened upon the JIZR in the comments section of one of the 0L blawgs and found a brave new world of love, philosophy and media consulting in Idaho (who knew?). While the chlamydia outbreak of 2005 remains the primary inspiration for our blog, JIZR guides our daily steps towards greatness.

In contemplation of this introduction, I asked SlackerP if we should just invite JIZR to join. Her response reflects our adoration:

“No no no. I would be so nervous to actually speak with him. Be still my beating heart.”

And yes, she really wrote that last sentence.

So, in lieu of his personal presence, we’d like to introduce him through his own words, which has been made excessively difficult by his decision to disallow cutting/pasting from his site. Although we are cognizant of the possibility that this suggests he is concerned with maintaining the rights to his writing, a) we do so with the utmost respect for his thoughts and work, and b) careful analysis leads us to believe that the collective penguin palate is uniquely attuned to his skill set and that we are the only ones actually giving his thoughts their proper dues. In any event, if you’re lost enough to be here, you should visit his blog – unlike us, at least he has the balls to put up a picture. Without further adieu, JIZR:

JIZR on promiscuity:

"It's been many, many moons since I last held the hand of a woman..."

JIZR on the fragility of relationships:

"I have spent the last month or so working on my Sorceress (Yoshina), she had passed the game in normal difficulty and was at level a level of 47 (of 99). Thru a fucking stupid mistake on my part, and not backing up my characters, I fucked up and lost that character completely! OMG! I also had several items with her that are VERY difficult to get as they drop extreamly [sic] scarcely. GRRR ARGH!!! So I spent all day yesterday (and I mean all day, minus a couple hours for cleaning) ramping up my new Sorceress (Brie)..."

JIZR on combating hatred:

"Fighting fire with ice is almost as effective, as ice will not put out a fire until it melts and becomes water. So the answer seems simple...fight fire with water. Likewise, you should not fight hate with hate nor fight hate with love, but rather fight hate with kindness. So if my problem is fear and the opposite of fear is anticipation, there is a middle ground that I'll pinpoint as analyzing..."

JIZR on relaxation:

"Have you ever noticed that you are completely relaxed only a couple times in a day. Sometimes not even that much. But I just noticed that one of those times for me is when I pee. It’s the strangest thing. Usually nothing on my mind, complete relaxation. It’s kinda kewl, I wish I could pee 100 times a day if I could have the same feeling. LOL..."
