Inspirational motivational quotes

Years ago when I used to use facebook, I remember that a few of my facebook friends would often post motivational quotes on their timelines. This week I've decided to take inspiration from those quotes and share a few motivational quotes myself.

However, you may notice that some of the following 'motivational' quotes aren't quite as motivational as they first seem...

1) Parent quote


To start things off, here's an embarassed looking cat that looked a good fit for the accompanying quote.



"Don't be ashamed of who you are. That's your parents job!"

Superhero related thoughts (part 3)

Superhero fans will know that a new Deadpool movie comes out next week (July 26th, 2024, to be precise). Technically speaking, Deadpool isn't really a superhero, he's a villain who became so popular that Marvel decided to loosely convert him to a 'hero' for financial purposes.

Deadpool.
A former villain turned ... still a villain, really.
However, even though Deadpool isn't really a superhero, I've nevertheless decided to use it as an excuse for another round-up of random superhero related thoughts.

1) A dubious moral of the story


Most superheroes ganied their power either from an accident or they were born with them. Most villains gained their power from having extreme intelligence or years of hard work.

What message are Marvel and DC trying to teach us?




2) Green light for crime


The Bat Signal basically tells every criminal in Gotham that Batman is going to be busy, so the best time to commit a crime would be while the Bat Signal is on.

Question of the day (part 3)

If it's good enough for Alan Partridge, then it's good enough for the Charles Fudgemuffin blog! I'm talking of course about the 'Question of the day' which Alan features on his Mid Morning Matters phone in show.

Another batch of questions designed to get you thinking,
starting with a money themed dilemma.
Alan's questions of the day are designed to be serious, but can often be unintentionally silly. The following questions are deliberately chosen to be a mixture of serious and silly.

Serious:

1) Would you rather win ten thousand pounds or your best friend wins a million pounds?



Silly:

2) Isn't it worrying that doctors call what they do 'practice'?

It's National Fashion Day on July 9th, so to celebrate this week the Charles Fudgemuffin blog takes a lighthearted look at the latest styles and trends.

1) The Nando's look


Barber: "How would you like your hair cut?"
Footballer: "Well, you know the Nando's logo..."
Barber: "No problem!"
