Analogue Sh*t: The Common Sense Hustle

|a modest proposal/ i'm bitching.|

It probably only bothers me that you could find more valid information on the internet
about Britney Spears than the theory of self-actulization by Abraham Maslow. Go figure,
our society is in shambles socially. Abraham Maslow is one of my biggest heroes right
now. If you're unfamiliar with the guy,he's famous for creating a Hierarchy of Human
Need. It's similar to this, but usually found in pyramid form:

On a lot of charts "safety" and "love" are a combined area. Sadly, most people never even
come close to self-actualization. I mean, it makes madd sense. To ever self actualize, one
must be willing to almost forget self-need entirely. That doesn't happen in 2005. People
are too selfish, and mostly lazy. We stay in the "safety/love" category due to modern
human behavior and newly invented compulsions. Think about it, everything so freaking
extreme. We’re pushed to become exteme. Freaking music moguls generate more social
change than activists...so what does everyone want to do? Emulate a music mogul of
course.
Yet, as predicted, I digress.
I’m frustrated because I’m feeling the paings of Maslow’s theory. I’m tired of dumbing
down conversation and catering to the needs of people who are firther down on the chart.
Compulsions annoy me to no end. It can’t be just me, I can’t be that odd. Hermitism
seems better and better each day.

Jonathan Swift’s Modest
Proposal came to mind today while in a fit of American rage. In short (even though
you should read it to get the full effect you lazy people), he proposed that it would be
socially and economically effiicient for the Irish to eat their own children. If only
somehow I can craft his approach to fit needs of my own when it comes to dealing with
the.....intellectually-challenged?
That would be great.

Now, if you would allow me to play with linguistics for a sec:

Certain words, or the subjective meaning of certain words cease to exist to me. "Deep"
for starters. What the hell does "deep" mean?. In my experience, "deep" is what happens
when you spend most of your time on the surface of thought. Don’t let "deep" happen to
you.
Freak.
Most commonly used among the cool kids like me to describe....a cool kid like me. The
word "freak" implies that a person is a sexual deviant. FYI: An affinity for oral, anal, or
"normal" sex with another human (or humans plural) does not denote a "freak". An
affinity for oral, anal, or "normal" sex with a child, animal or inatimate object DOES.

But what do I know.
I "act white".

eatchildrenselfactualizeYAY.

-M.

P.S. They've given me a roomate. I will not take this time to divulge on how upset I am. I
will also not be taking this time to communicate how unexcited I am about this whole
thing. I will, however, take this time to say that Wawa CaffeBlends milkshakes are really
gross and watery. They're not worth $2.12. That is all.
