It seems like the more I know the less I understand, I become diminished to a tiny atom of a man, and I’m not experiencing enjoyment but for an instant when I learn something new about myself. Is it less fun to be an intellectual? Do blonds have more fun when they read?
I enjoy being an intellectual. Sometimes it’s exhausting though because I’m addicted to learning. I study something every day. Mostly languages but it can be tiring. Sometimes I just watch trash tv like Paternity Court.
ha, remember that song from the 90s, “She’s an intellectual! she doesn’t like meat, but she sure loves the bone”
yeah, well, I gave up NPR.
Do you remember Paul Harvey and The Rest of the Story?
oh yeah! what’d you learn from it? can’t remember.
How are you defining ‘intellectual’?
Smart making in my brain bone is exhausting.
the ancient phylosopher Socrates said once: ‘all i know is i know nothing’. it seems the more we know the smaller we turn but i happen to think it is the absolute inverse. there are laws to the universe, there are a vast many ways in which chemical elements combine. it is nice to have an understanding of what is going on.
yeah, it was all decade 70s, into 80s.
I was pretty young then, but my mom listened
to it when us in the car. I think we were picking up grandma
for church.
That was basically my last 5 years of school.
Homeschool taught me a lot on how to teach myself.
the one morning, Loke, it was the broadcast of John Lennon’s death overnight.
My mother cried while hearing it.
Go watch monkeys throw there poop around then see if your still tired of it ![]()
That’s really interesting ![]()
I went to a self directed high school. I guess thats why i like self learning.
still stupid though?
just wondering.
nice history. you can’t blaim dr, peeper. the pharmacist was too young and his daughter too. it was certainly prudent to wait for her maturation in a way she could come to know her true sources of happyness and settle with someone adequate to fullfill her needs. love does wonderful things. i doesn’t work for me because i am paranoid so i eventually make mistakes and that is not aceptable as i would never take away happyness from anyone specially girls whom to me represent an entire different and fascinating realm of human beings.
Well there ya go!
Yeah i still throw my poop . Couldnt help myself ![]()
