It's not just stupid
It's real stupid.
I made myself a blog, to combat the times. To make a difference. To split infinitives.
What I realized is that everything everyone says is stupid, and what I've learned is that quibbling over degrees is for the anal-retentive, the obsessive-compulsive, the uptight and also people who enjoy lying to themselves.
So what I figure is if I approach issues with the open-minded curiosity of a child, analyze them with the cold objectivity of a scientist, consider every possible point of a view like a schizophrenic, subject my findings to the whims of a stoned sculptor, present them backwards like Yoda and defend them with the relentlessness of an idiot, I should come up with something that so cunningly cuts to the heart of these said issues that it'll piss off absolutely anyone who hears it, regardless of personal philosophy, political affiliation or degree of laid-backness.
I could say that by doing this, I intend to draw attention to how nonsensical conventional thinking is, and somehow blow everyone's minds into being able to see how goofy they look from where I am.
But even I'm not that stupid. I've learned from history. I know about the Dadaists, and Timothy Leary and Jesus and everyone else who ever tried to make people think, and I'm fully aware that if you can't already see it, showing it to you is going to be unexciting at best.
No, I just kinda enjoy bothering people.
