Can Idiots Be Smart?
No one seems to read this anymore. Thusly, I can address my mental goings-on without fear of…something.
I’m going to explain part of something very complicated. I have this little version of myself in my head which is sort of me how I’d like to be. And I wander around through various worlds from books and movies and my own demented thinking. Generally I single out a few characters and stalk them, at least in the beginning. This would explain by Beatles issues to some extent.
Anyway, the other me likes to bug people. One person in particular. So much that I climb in his window at five in the morning just because it bothers him. And I make fun of him a lot, because I know he won’t hit me. (This isn’t because I have control over what he does in my head. I like to stay true to character.) And no, it’s not Paul. That’s a whole ‘nother…thing that’s whole.
Ahem. Anyway, just because I enjoy bugging people doesn’t mean I don’t like them. What I want to know is, can an idiot not be stupid? This question has been presented to me in various situations by a certain talking dog. I’ve stopped making assorted comments because of it. So…answers?
Also, my sanity is severely disrupted by the nosreps. “Nosrep” is “person” backwards. They’re exact opposites of existing people, and a plot device that I made up because I was running out of ideas for ways to—never mind. Well, they aren’t exact opposites in all ways, just in most aspects of personality. Most people never meet theirs, which is good, because it could start a huge war. You should have seen—never mind. But they’ve kind of taken on a life of their own. I reconciled with my nosrep, Ecnatsnoc, a while ago, and we met in an alley while she was hunting a nosrep called Tsiom. Um. So you can see my problem.
I forgot what I was talking about. Sorry.
And… you bug whom? Is it… erm… someone… in a book… that you’re trying to get me to read?
I happen to know of several people who read your blog.
In any case, I don’t know if idiots can be smart, but I know many smart people who semi-regularly do idiotic and/or foolish things. For example: me and all my friends. I know we’re smart because all our teachers have said as much over the years. All the same, we still keep making bad choices and doing idiotic things. The choices and things change over time, but the level of idiocy remains fairly constant.
By the way, if you run into Ynnej or Nawor, please give them my regards and tell them to clean up the cat puke sometimes.
