A nebulous term at best. It can mean what you want it to mean.
good, bad, indifferent.
silly, misunderstood, inane.
chaotic, entropic.
Pretty much all about me. LOL maybe I should change my name.
I work, I sleep, I play. Seemingly NOT ridiculous, and yet it is. My choices are my own, and yet sometimes it seems that choices are made for me.
That is ridiculous. Meaning: good AND bad, silly AND yes, random.
What is ridiculous about it? The universe works in mysterious ways. Chaotic, silly. Perhaps my life is part of a grand plan. Perhaps it is all just a roll of giant troll dice... That is a question of life that most people, I think, have to deal with.
Nothing is set in stone, you can make your own fate or at least nudge it in a different direction. I have to believe that, else all is for naught. If my path is predetermined and it can't be changed, that sucks. I like ridiculous. And random.
speaking of paths, and random acts of random ridiculousness...

The tall man with the fair skin and the black hair is standing on the
balcony, looking out over the vast expanse of concrete. He is looking for
something, scanning the horizon. He brings the distance viewer to his eye and
continues to search.
“Ah, there you are, beautiful lady.”
There is a breeze developing, the trees that line the
edges of the Spaceport bending their trunks as though in welcome. The breeze
builds into a storm of wind. The man is focusing the viewer on a portion of the
sky where a small speck is just barely visible to the naked eye. As the wind
increases, so does the sound, low at first, but growing louder with each
passing moment.
