Looking backwards at the world: "The Adventures of the Bragging King"

This movie is awesome and absurd.
Baron Menjoson did have such a person, and his cowhide was really bullish. The ladies must think that it was art. Just imagine the scene of a man holding his hair to prevent himself from falling into the water. Watches in Lee's oil painting.
The biggest shortcoming of human beings is not being dumb but lying, but bragging is the only lie that can be accepted by people. Things that can be accepted by people are eventually promoted to professions, such as revolution or prostitution. The same is true for bragging, otherwise Li Bai’s poem is as white as three thousand feet of white hair. It is meaningless to read that the Milky Way is down nine days. Chairman Mao sits on the ground and travels 80,000 miles a day, which is quite different from our party’s style of seeking truth from facts. If it can be done, I think that bragging should be added to the current creative method of absurdism poetry.
The essence of bragging is to speak upright about what is inverted, while absurdity is to bend over and bow your head and watch the world from your crotch. This is a bit of a cultural rogue feeling. It has the same taste as young people in the 1980s wearing bell-bottom pants, which is not serious. In the article "Reflections of Columbia", Mu Xin said, "How can this last? I have to straighten up." This remark now reminds me of it, it is still quite interesting. People use absurd methods to get a glimpse of reality, but they are only reflections. What will happen when they straighten up in the end?
The most absurd plot in human history is the nailing of Jesus to the cross. People worship God by rejecting God. When Jesus called God the Father and said that he was sent by God, the Pharisees immediately thought that Jesus was bragging and blaspheming God, ah! You who speak arrogant words, your fellow Galileans all recognize you. How could the humble carpenter, son of Joseph, be the son of God? Well, we pushed him down the cliff, we would rather release the robber than crucify him. Also, if you say that you are the Son of God, try to save yourself from the cross, bragging!
In this world, some people ask for wisdom and some people ask for miracles, so people focus on these two things in "boasting", boasting becomes humorous wisdom, and what they boast about becomes miracles. When Jesus was nailed to the cross, what we saw was the end of beheading at noon in the vegetable market, and we thought it was a shame. However, what the world thinks is right, but it wants to look backwards. Unexpectedly, this man died to redeem everyone's sins. Unexpectedly, the torture instrument of shame became a symbol of glory, and never thought that the humble Son of man would establish a glorious kingdom. People think it is ashamed, but Paul sees it as the power of God, which is very admirable.
