Chuck Lorre Sayings

If you don't have a DVR to stop the screen and read them you might not have the time when it flies by at the end of "The Big Bang Theory" or other sitcoms he is involved in making. But, I have come to see these jewels as sort of a Comedic Zen or even his own personal style of Haiku with a different personal way of doing things. Here is an example of one of them which is number 61 below:

Begin quote:

When I was a little kid my parents often used a phrase that, to their way of thinking, described the ancient art of meditation. The phrase was "staring at one's belly button." This bon mot was most often used to describe someone who was sitting on their butt practicing the equally ancient art of underachieving. "Look at that guy over there staring at his belly button," would be considered an acceptable use of this witticism. Another common remark heard in my formative years was "He's got a head on his shoulders," which was used to express admiration and respect. Smart people who were doing something with their lives had "heads on the shoulders." Those who were not quite so clever, well, there was another phrase for where their heads were. The reason I'm bringing this up is that while meditating recently I had a tremendous flash of insight -- I have never stared at my belly button, not while meditating, not while underachieving, and my head has always been on my neck. When I mentioned to my mother that my head was filled with these sorts of nonsensical sayings and I considered it a subtle form of child abuse, she told me not to be such a Wisenheimer. Wisenheimer was an old country name that was later anglicized to Smartypants. end quote from #61

   Also, tonight I watched the latest "Big Bang Theory" and here is the one from tonight:

   
   

   "Stray Thoughts"

   
   

   When I heat up food in my microwave oven, the LED panel counts down to zero then flashes the word "enjoy". I find this very upsetting. I know my microwave doesn't care if I "enjoy" my soup and I'd prefer it not feign interest. I'm also well aware that it mocks my stove when I'm not around

   
   

   While his passing was sad, his genius undeniable, and his legacy assured, I am haunted by one question regarding Ravi Shankar. How would we have known if he made mistakes?

   
   

   As a child I believed that the future included jet packs, flying cars, space travel, cool robots, and glass-domed  colonies on the surface of the moon and the bottom of the ocean. As an adult I believe that the future includes TV's that can't be turned on without the help of out-of-work musicians. end quote from Chuck Lorre Productions #403.

   
   

   I really love the way his mind works because it is such a Zen like comedic talent that you see in action especially in his Comedic Haiku whenever he does one of these sayings.
