What I learned today:
1. Working in any type of fast food situation is absolutely mandatory for being a teenager. It is said that there are certain developmental tasks that need to be fufilled in order to proceed to bigger and better stages of life. What these sociologists failed to mention however, is that a fast food situation is necessary if you have hopes of becoming a free-standing, reasonable adult. When submersed in this environment, you learn your pet peeves, and your level of tolerance. It's perfect practice. Without this understanding what really pisses you off, you will more than likely end up in jail 10 years down the road for killing without a reasonable cause (but at least you'll have an insanity plea). Stick that in your pipe and smoke it Erik Erikson. How does it taste?
2. While this wasn't necessarily a new fact picked up today, it was a fairly remarkable addition. Humans are not a helpful species. Some like to think that human capabilities are ever expanding, and that the human heart has more storage space now than ever before. However, it is near impossible to shake of our orignal programing. There can never be a number two or number three in a human's life. The basic survival of number one is all that matters. Sure, survival is a fantastic thing, but sometimes its really okay to bring others along for the ride. Because let's face it, if it's number one all the time, shit will fill your organs and you'll just die anyways (and it won't smell good either).
3. How to levitate.
Also, last night I dreamt an array of things that had no continuity whatsoever. But during one part, a T-rex was chasing me, but it had a three dimensional body with a two dimensional head. I wasn't afraid either. I'll pull out the dream book for that one.
This went downhill from the start. Maybe it's just because my mood is dull today. This is where I sign off before I'm forced to use adjectives I'll later regret.
Okay.
