D True to Form

(10:27)


Somebody: why are people so freaking stupid?

DFDMaestro I: I think people are stupid as a defense... against.... brain-eating aliens.

....

DFDMaestro I: Oh yes... and sometimes people are stupid because if you keep your brain on, you're more particular about choosing a mate, and you might be single longer.

Read and learn. There are many reasons people are stupid. The more reasons you know, the fewer excuses you have. Once you run out of excuses, you get smart. Or you turn evil. Either way, it's forward motion!


And then this is from another conversation....



[I'm beginning by speculating on why so many women want to be merely friends with me]

DFDMaestro I: Women want to be friends with me because I satisfy so many of their deeper needs without presenting any kind of a threat.

SomebodyFemale: Threat!?

SomebodyFemale: Why would being threatening, be a good thing?

DFDMaestro I: I dunno. It just is.

......

SomebodyFemale: Let's think of the associations of that word for a moment: scary, violent, overbearing...

SomebodyFemale: doesn't sound good to me. No, I don't like threatening men.

DFDMaestro I: Scary, violent, overbearing... those guys get girls!!! ;-)

......

SomebodyFemale: Does it work the other way? Do men like threatening women in your universe as well? ;-)

DFDMaestro I: Men like women who say "yes," which is to say, anything that doesn't sound like "no."

DFDMaestro I: "I don't think so" doesn't sound like "no," by the way.

SomebodyFemale: What about: "I'm not sure."

DFDMaestro I: Holy crud...

DFDMaestro I: That means ask again in 5 minutes

DFDMaestro I: And most men can't count to 5 minutes.
