Thematic

[jackshoegazer]

Seriously, people, I will post something that is not politics soon. I'm incredibly busy with school right now - I hardly have time for breathing. I have a test in Environmental issues today, I have a major paper due for Literature on Tuesday, an Abnormal Psych test and a Mythology test on Tuesday as well. BLAH!

See, this was not politics! Ta-dah, I win. Now, go read about the Florida teenager who claims he was attacked and robbed by four topless blonde women on his way to work.

That strikes me as cheating.

Abnormal Psych test, eh? That actually sounds like fun. I betcha blow all those underachievers out of the water.

It was pretty easy, actually. I bet I got an A.

Wouldn't surprise me. It's one of those interesting subjects that should stick with you as long as you did the reading. Psych is lovely like that!

Good luck with your tests and wishing you clarity in your paper. Perhaps later you can write a paper comparing Republican Ruling Class values, as practiced, with traditional psychiatric views on Sociopathy as Huffington once did (sorry, can't remember the book atm), thus combining education with political insight.

Haha, thanks. I'll have to look that up. Did you hear about the recent study where these scientists took personality assessments of little kids like 20ish years ago and then revisited them today and the whiny, annoying kids turned out to be Republicans and the independent, creative kids turned out to be Democrats - it was a ridiculously huge correspondence.

No, I didn't. If you happen to have the link to the article friends and I would enjoy reading it.

When we were in Houston last Christmas there were a string of car jackings where one woman would flash the driver, he'd screech to a halt and another woman would stick a gun in his face and force him from the car.

It's a tough economy, a lady's gotta do what's she's gotta do to get by.

Wow, that's mean and playing to men's worst tendencies! It's not fair that boobies have unnatural powers over us.

It's a man's world

You forget the carjacker glass ceiling. Female car jackers make 70 cents to every dollar a male car jacker makes. women must be innovative in every field.

Ab psych was such a fun class. I loved it. I think until you see it from the inside, you never really realize exactly how wide the seperate catagories of Crazy are until you get to study the DSM. Good luck with everything!!

What I've liked so far is that it is accepted that abnormal is really normal, that a lot of people have these issues, but only some people get to the point where they need treatment. Everybody's a little crazy :)

I KNOW, right? I actually remember thinking once during class, "They should really call this class 'Mostly Normal Except for a Few *REALLY* Crazy People (except calling them crazy isn't nice so you shouldn't do that- to their face)'.
