Apsurdistan ili Raj? / Land of Absurdity or Paradise?

Postoji jedan vic... Kada je Bog stvorio Zemlju, podijelio ju je raznim narodima... svatko je dobio ponešto, samo su Hrvati ostali 'kratkih rukava'. I došli su pred Boga s pitanjem: 'A gdje ćeš smjestiti nas?' Bog se počešao po glavi i rekao: 'Hmmm, ovaj sam komadić Zemlje ostavio za sebe, ali, evo, dajem ga vama...' I tako, nastade Hrvatska... Raj na zemlji... za turiste... Naravno, fizička stvarnost za stanovnike Hrvatske nije baš tako divna... imamo mi svojih, hmmm, izazova... pa je tako, nastao sinonim za ovu predivnu zemlju – Apsurdistan . Ovdje ne znaš da li bi sjeo i plakao nad ljudima/životinjama/ovcama, institucijama – od komunalnih i obrazovnih do pravnih i medicinskih, zakonima i propisima, političarima... (čast izuzecima)... Ili bi nešto pokušao promijeniti... Na kraju, obično, odustaneš i odeš živjeti negdje drugdje, što dalje... Ali se svako ljeto vraćaš uživati u ono gore spomenutom Raju... i, što je najbolje, imaš pravo glasa (ako se ne odrekneš državljanstva) i možeš sudjelovati u krojenju gaća onima koji su ostali - još jedan dokaz da je Hrvatska i Raj i Apsurdistan u jednom! Ima li toga igdje još?? A, ponekad, u dugim zimskim noćima, pitam se nije li ideja za crtić o Malcima došla iz Hrvatske, pardon, Apsurdistana?

There is a joke... When the God has created the Earth, He distributed it between the nations... Every nation got some part, but the Croatians nothing. And they came to God with a simple question: 'Where can WE live?' God answered: 'Ahh, you can take this piece of the Earth that I have left for Myself!' And it became Croatia... The Paradise on the Earth ... for the tourists... Of course, reality for inhabitants of Croatia is not so charming... We have our, hmmm, challenges... so, someone made synonym for our beautiffull country – Land of Absurdity, Apsurdistan. Here, you do not know... is it better to sit and cry over people/animals/sheeps, over the institutions – municipal one, educational one, juristic one, medical one, over laws and cannons, politicinas... (honor to the exeptions)... or to try to change something... At the end, you give up and go to live somwhere else... far far away... But, of course, every summer you are coming back... to enjoy that Paradise... and, what the best is – you have right to vote (if you are still Croatian) and your vote will be included in that Absurdity land! One more evidence that Croatia is Paradise and Absurdity land in One! Is there something like that anywhere else? And sometimes, in the long winter nights, I ask myself – The Minions story must be originated from Croatia, sory, Land of Absurdity, didn't it?
