The Post About TV Domino Syndrome

We have all done it.

We have all sat there for at least half and hour watching trashy TV. Not just the TV that is written and produced okay but with bad content.
No.
I am talking about straight up B. A. D, bad television.

Now I have my fair share of weaknesses and one of them is television shows. No matter how bad it is I have to sit there and watch the entire episode.
I have no idea why, it is probably some unfulfilled desire in my soul that lives to find out what boy Kathy will pick, or when Sally will wake up from her coma, or when Anthony will find out that Max is his evil twin, or when Jayton will reveal that he is secretly in love with his best friends girlfriend.
It is something roughly along those lines.

Anyways, you know what I am talking about, all of the really, really, really horrible television shows with names like The Tears of Out Past and Moments of  Our Dreams and Malibu Love.
And you sit there and think how is this show even running?
Where do they get the fans from, it is the single dumbest thing I have ever seen?

However, as you sit there and think about how horrible it is, you are watching it. You are talking about it. You are thinking about it!

Now, because I am a professional and can rightly make these decisions, I have decided this is called the TV domino syndrome.

The TV domino syndrome can work in good ways, but it mostly works in horrible, horrible, life ruining, time wasting, brain-cell-depleting, IQ- lowering ways.
The basic principle of the TV domino syndrome is that once you see a television show the first domino, the initial viewing, has been tapped. Then the second domino falls from the first and you all did that as a child.

With good TV like Doctor Who or Sherlock or Merlin or Sherlock, this is a very good thing, because it introduces you to some of the finest art produced for our televisions.
However, when TV domino syndrome occurs with bad television you have a problem. You get so caught up in how horrible it is you don't realize you have just watched eight episodes in a row and for some reason you find your self looking it up on Netflix and before you know it you might actually care, just a little bit whether or not Sally will wake up from her coma..... again.

So I leave you with this very important information: Never fall prey to the TV domino syndr- OH, who am I kidding!?!?! Even the strongest of human intellects fall prey to some degree of TV domino syndrome.

The Post About School Hallways

I have always enjoyed certain aspects about school. I mean you have to admit that the social aspect alone is pretty good -sorry home-schoolers.

But I also enjoy learning,
Sometimes,
I mean if I want to,
Ok so not usually.

But I do like to take in information I think is interesting or cool. I mean do I really care what the square root of 198 is? Do I really care what the surface temperature of the moon is? Do I really care what the ratio of elements in the air is? Not really.

If anyone can tell me the answers to those questions that would be great because I have idea!

However, I love learning about the motives of the Civil War, the reasons behind a humans self preservation, the basic structure of communication, and most of all people!

I just love to learn about emotions, ideas, hopes and dreams, instinct, struggles, all the things that go along with being a human.

Now there isn't a class called "Learning to be Human 101." However, a school, a high school especially, is one of the best places to learn about humans. It is one of the best places to get an idea of love, stress, lying, cheating, stealing, boredom, friendship, and social hierarchy. You spend five minutes in a high school hallway and you can watch relationships begin, grow, and break up within the blink of an eye. Most people don't notice as they rush through the halls, plowing over innocent bystanders as they power walk to there next class, but I usually do.

Now, I'm not creepy or anything but I have a really horrid habit of listening in on other people's conversations. It isn't technically eavesdropping because it isn't intentional! It's not my fault that you walk in front of or behind me and decide to talk loud enough for me to hear!

Ok, so maybe it is eavesdropping, but I can talk about that problem another day.

Anyways, when I walk in the halls and hear all of these things around me I can't help but analyze and assess every word people say. I blame being a writer personally, but others tell me it is just because I am strange.

I have always hated that answer, "Because your strange." That's not an answer it's just a cop out designed to make the other person feel slightly inferior without feeling hurt.

I guess what I am trying to say is that if you are studying Psychology just walk around a high school for ten minutes and I am sure you will pass.
