Brain Damage
A few entries ago, and i know it was a long time ago, i posted that i would soon write an entry about "Popularity, its roots in Disaster", i think i've come to apoint where i can write it and put real thought into it, now mind this, its alot of offtrack thoughts just pouring out of my head.
Popularity, when you think of it you think of the kids that everyone knows or wants to know. But have you honestly stopped to think about such a thing. Being popular and good looking and always having people around must be fun and all, sometimes. then other times you have to wish you were alone, which must be depressing in ways that i don't think i'll know in a million years. But just think with me on this, to know so many people and have to keep up with them, exhausting even to think about isn't it? i myself am perfectly fine not knowing so many peoplet hat it drives me insane, i'm perfectly okay with having a certain lgroup of 8 or so friends that i always end up hanging out with. sure i'm alright with meeting new people and hanging with them a bit. but i always seem to be going back to my little group. But then thats another mind boggling thing to think about, are you sometimes so modest that you ARE one of the more popular kids and you just don't know it? from a point lower in the social ladder do you think others look up to you? how many people do you think do that? do you sometimes wonder that people might admire how you act while you don't even know it and admiring how others act? Or maybe that a social ladder doesn't even exist? might you believe that human nature and classes are two completely different things and that natural human selection plays a part in popularity to a point where only looks and charisma does anything for making someone known? but not known to any people, no, known to the people who look to them and see a prime specimen and someone who talks and can convey things well? Someone who looks to the "popular" kids must see them as a higher being, ones who are more physically adept to survive. Or perhaps this is only the case in a few people, maybe the human races hace almost, but not completely evolved from that. maybe only a certain few think on terms of beauty, perhaps some people think of the popular kids by how many people are around them and just ASSUME that they want to be frineds with that person, even if it involves changes their own personality just to fit in. Assume that , for one second, popular people don't exist, celebrities are no higher than a homeless man, the u.s. president is no higher than yourself. now just think, without this, who would be voted to take charge? who would follow who in any military action? there would be mass chaos without anyone so popular as to take authority, so where is the reason in trashing it? why do the people who look at themselves so modestly that they hate themselves for being so down on their own social ladder? perhaps its another one of human's dreaded emotions, jealousy? maybe even envy? who knows, humans are weird, maybe thats why i have so many god damn questions about them..
There ya go, some mind munchin, brain crunchin, material to contemplate about fo awhile.
