Multilateral Nuclear Disarmament - Beastie Boys
Beastie Boys’ Up Yours to nukes. Filed under “Zoning Out. Be Right Back” mixtape.
Introducing our new game called:
“Don’t Be A Di*k During Meals With Friends.”
The first person to crack and look at their phone picks up the check.
Our (initial) purpose of the game was to get everyone off the phones free from twitter/fb/texting and to encourage conversations.
Rules:
1) The game starts after everyone has ordered.
2) Everybody places their phone on the table face down.
3) The first person to flip over their phone loses the game.
4) Loser of the game pays for the bill.
5) If the bill comes before anyone has flipped over their phone everybody is declared a winner and pays for their own meal.
Variations/house rules:
-Starting the game after everyone is seated.
-In the rare event that multiple people flip their phones simultaneously, the bill is split between said players.
- Feel free to invoke penalties/strikes systems.
Notes:
- No touching or messing with anybody else’s phones.
- You don’t have to stack the phones. This was done for picture taking purposes.
- I realize I should perhaps think of a different name for this awesome game. Because I don’t mean to imply that everyone who checks their phone during meals is a di*k.
- I recommend not being such a stickler or hardass on people about the rules and even initiation of the game. Basic premise is to just get people open to the idea of staying active and attentive to one another. But if someone has to take a call; they have to take a call =).
- Have fun! It’s really more of a fun concept in this new age high tech life of ours. Conversation is the spice of life.

Anino (unreleased track), Up Dharma Down
So I keep track of Up Dharma Down-related post here on Tumblr, and I’ve come across this post once or even twice a couple of weeks ago. I was skeptical at first when I saw this post. I verified this with Armi and asked if they had a song called ‘Anino’ and here’s what she said via SMS:
yup from 6yrs ago. Never made it to Fragmented. But i’ll be re releasing it sometime soon
I thought this was from Imago and the one who posted it tagged the song incorrectly. But when I listened to it, it was Armi. Beautiful lyrics.
Can’t reblog this on the UdD site, so I am reblogging/posting it on my page instead. :D
I transcribed the lyrics:
Anino
Armi MillarePagod na ang mga labi kahit wala pang sinasabi
Puro minsan na lang, nakapako sa aking isipan
Tahan na, umiiyak ka na naman
Hindi ba’t ikaw din ang papahid ng luhang yan
Hindi ka ba nag-sasawa sa tuwing titindig at titig sa salamin
Lahat ay nag-wakas,nakamtan ang kalayaan ko
Habang mayroon pang nalalabing lakas, nais kong malaman mo
Heto ako, sumpang hindi na uulit pa
Heto ako, handang-handang iwanan ka
Heto ako, mamumuhay ng mag-isa
Heto ako, ba’t nariyan ka pa
Ipagpaumanhin mo sana ang takbo ng isipan kong ito
Sadyang ganyan lang tal’ga, wala sa katwiran
Alam mo, tama na tapos na ang nakaraan
Hindi ito nararapat gawan ng paraan
Hindi ka ba naiinis sa tuwing ika’y sinisisi
Sa pag-ibig na kailan ma’y hindi na umusbong
Noon ay sinabik, ngunit ngayon ako’y nagbabalik
Dahil lamang sa nag-iisang saglit na silayan kang muli
Heto ako, nakatayo sa iyong harapan
Heto ako, handa na atang masaktan
Heto ako, ‘di na mag-papapigil pa
Heto ako, nariyan ka pa ba
Heto ako, dahil sa iyo’y gulong-gulo
Heto ako, sana’y paniwalaan mo
Heto ako, umaawit, litong-lito
Heto ako, unawain mo
Kailangan pa ba, kailangan kita
Nasaan ka na, nariyan ka pa ba
Ika’y sumumpa, hindi mawawala ang iyong pag-sinta
Huwag mo, huwag mo akong iiwan
Patawad kung ikaw ay nasaktan

Remember, you cannot be both young and wise. Young people who pretend to be wise to the ways of the world are mostly just cynics. Cynicism masquerades as wisdom, but it is the farthest thing from it. Because cynics don’t learn anything. Because cynicism is a self-imposed blindness, a rejection of the world because we are afraid it will hurt us or disappoint us. Cynics always say no. But saying “yes” begins things. Saying “yes” is how things grow. Saying “yes” leads to knowledge. “Yes” is for young people. So for as long as you have the strength to, say yes.

To be wronged is nothing unless you continue to remember it.
Every word from A Clockwork Orange
I invented nothing new. I simply assembled the discoveries of other men behind whom were centuries of work. Had I worked fifty or ten or even five years before, I would have failed. So it is with every new thing. Progress happens when all the factors that make for it are ready and then it is inevitable. To teach that a comparatively few men are responsible for the greatest forward steps of mankind is the worst sort of nonsense.
When I looked at you, my life made sense. Even the bad things made sense. They were necessary to make you possible.
