Either You came Onto the Earth As a Genius, or You Came On as Less Than a Genius
Last night, my sister said, "I've begun to realize I'll never be a genius." I just thought one can't become a genius. Either you are a genius, or you aren't. I don't have aspirations of becoming a genius. I have the luck of having an above-average mind, and that satisfies me. This just explains the way genetics work. Either you have the luck of having a super-brain, or you don't. The topic of "geniusdom" came up in watching the short films of David Lynch. My sister calls him a genius. He made most of his short films as a student, so they, although completely weird (one can take weird as a sign of a genius' work), seemed a little rough, and pretentious, to me. During his present directing years, in my opinion, David Lynch has become an excellent director. Just as genetics decides intelligence, genetics also decides attractiveness. David Lynch doesn't look so good.

Phrasing Paradox
I have a conundrum about a commonly used phrase. I wonder about the origin of "I'll take care of you." One doesn't take care. One gives care. This question probably has an obvious answer, but I have no clue how to find an answer.

Obligatory Response
A few people asked me during Christmas, if I liked the gift he or she gave me. I, obviously, said "yes" in order not to hurt his or her feelings. Did he or she expect me to say "no", and give a long explanation of why not?

Things That Piss On My Existence
Somebody must like these things:
the Freehold/Chrysler/Jeep commercial
Maroon 5
Bruce Springsteen
the Faux Hawk
skin-tight jeans
un-flavored yogurt
Bon Jovi
wearing a baseball cap, while presenting hair on the forehead, or wearing the cap too loosely (like Jason Dufner)
overly branded clothing
photos online of things I have not eaten
Train
Creed
Cleatus - the Fox football robot
music by the rapper "Drake"
the Freehold/Chrysler/Jeep commercial

Offensive
I become so angry when someone tells me I can't do something. The other day, to make a point about the challenges I've overcome, my dad said, "Just a month ago you couldn't put on your socks." I then said, "I could. I just didn't feel like it." Most of my recovery comes from the fact I believe I can do anything humanly possible. My dad then said he used the word "couldn't" for the sake of expediency.

Animalia
As fellow animals, we should love beasts (dogs and cats) more. I love animals more than I ever used to, so join me in the embrace of animals.
Sara Maclaughlin
I just saw one of those commercial aimed to make people feel bad about the plight of potential pets, and anyone who feels comfortable embracing the emotional side out the human psyche, can't help but recognize the animals on the screen look incredibly cute, and awesome.

"The Time Is Now"
I have had a difficult time distinguishing between the present, and the future. What counts as the present? Songs like Annie's "Tomorrow", and the Fleetwood Mac song that goes,"don't stop thinking about tomorrow", put a lot of emphasis on the future, as if we shouldn't think about the present.
Don't Call Me An Architect
People call me an architect all of the time, just because I have a Master's degree in architecture, but I haven't taken the licensing exam in architecture, and I haven't had an apprenticeship, therefore I haven't become an architect.

Dependent
I know what the British (pre-1776) felt like, and I can relate to the feelings of black people before the abolition of slavery. I don't claim I feel like a slave. This wheelchair just enslaves me, and I depend on many people, currently.
Declaration of Dependence
Every small move I make goes under analyzation. I can't wait until I gain independence, and people can, finally, leave me alone. I'd never thought I'd yearn for silence so much.
Thought Progression
I want to know the progression of thoughts that go through a cat's mind as he or she plays with a dangling thing on the end of a string. I think the progression goes something like this: 1. Oh, something to play with. I'll attack it. 2. Oh, the small thing makes an appearance, once again. I'll get that small thing. 3. Again with that little. I'll destroy it, out of anger for it's existence.
A Cat's Faux Paw
Cats have no concern with the public image they present. A cat will lick his or her asshole in public, and goes right back to licking his or her paw. Shit evacuates from the asshole, and he or she uses the paw to clean his or her face. Cats have a shit face, let alone having a shit tongue.

Football and Penises
I just realized the homosexuality of football. I have the football Giants game on my TV, and I turn around to talk to my mom. As I turn around to watch the TV, I see two men laying with each other on the ground, both wearing football uniforms.

An Important Question About Headaches
I have a question about anatomy. I know, from experience, the right hemisphere of the brain controls the left side of the body. Does this phenomenon ever stop? When someone describes a headache on his or her right side of the head, does the headache happen to right brain cells?
Word Conundrum
What word means the opposite of nonchalant? Chalant isn't a word. Normally, the resulting word when the prefix "non" precedes the root word means the opposite of the root word. I have a word conundrum.

Another One
Fluffin just came out with a new solo album entitled "If I Don't Have Food In My Bowl, I'll Meow Incessantly".
My Kitten Won't Stop
Fluffin just released a new solo album entitled "Anything That Doesn't Blend In With the Environment I'll Eat".

I Ran Fast, In the Past
In my time at rehab, I see mad therapists I would've smoked in a race, and these freaking people teach me how to become independent. I just think I would have killed you in a race. I need to replace that past tense with present tense.

Avoid laziness
Needing to work hard to accomplish almost everything has made me realize people usually choose the lazier path, when given a choice. I went,with my dad, to the Freehold Mall, and I must use the elevator to transport from floor to floor. I had to wait on a line to allow some fat ladies to use the elevator. They literally all had too much fat, and they literally all had boobs. fat, and boobs
Expectation
I want a person to use the acronym "LOL" to signify actual laughter, instead of just an indication of funniness. If I had my way, society would cease to use that acronym.
Beef With the Schools
As a 28 year, and 9 month old intellectual, I think I know a little bit about learning. I have a problem with our public school system, or at least the system I learned in. In retrospect, I realize the limitations of the school system. The school system break things into "disciplines" (math, language arts, history, science). The school system should go with a more interdisciplinary approach. I recommend the school system should only teach one subject. This probably seems ridiculous to most people. Most people think with a segregated mindset, where math and english shouldn't mix. I, presently, can write well, but I used to have a label as a "math person", because I could perform math equations easily, and I sucked at writing. Not until recently have I realized the overlap between math, and english. A lot of structure goes into an essay. As far as vocabulary goes, one uses similar memorization skills that one would use in memorizing math techniques. Once I went to graduate school, I realized I had very deficient drawing skills. Most people might tell me I can draw very well, but put my drawings next to an Art major's, and you can always tell which drawing belongs to the person who majored in art. I believe art should have more weight in public schools. We can mix art with most subjects.

Human Beings Can't Fly
The casual use of superlatives, like can't, upset me. Usually, a person can do something, it just takes a very huge amount of effort to do that thing, and that person says he or she "can't". Quoting my physical therapist: "you can, you just currently have a hard time doing it."

Bobble-head
With all of the attractive women passing by my sightline, the incessant chatter, shitty music and other loud shit polluting the air waves, and my brain damage, one must understand why I have difficulty focusing.

Liberal-Republican
I've grown sick of a lot my friends (my liberal friends) blindly supporting the democratic party. Democrats support socialism, fiscally. The socialist form of government resembles closely the dictatorship form of government. America's founding fathers formed America to oppose a dictatorship. I, personally, don't want to share my money with lazy individuals through taxes. I agree some people have a poor position in life, but a person can improve his or her position through a privately-formed group. I, completely, believe a person can improve his or her position through hard work. Not to "toot my own horn", I have a shitty position, now, but I endure 4 therapies weekly to become healthy. My accident has taught me the power of the human will. I never thought this would happen to me. Most people don't expect to have a snowboarding accident. One would be surprised what he or she can accomplish, if he or she must.
