knee-jerk response[s]

If I ever had... I'm grateful for my short attentions span and I tend to forget about those postings soon enough.

As I have cited from elsewhere, the assumption that we are unified "single minded selves" is empirically unjustified. What we call "self" is contextually evoked.

@Francis,

I said something to Francis a long while back that I realized too late was insulting, which I'm sorry for.

Other than that, all my posts have been carefully considered.

Of course, sometimes I like to post stuff to get OCCOM Bill in a self righteous tizzy, but that's only when I don't feel like exerting myself mentally.

@dyslexia,

I make things up all the time - usually trying to be funny - but unfortunately most are not intelligent enough to appreciate my humor and end up swearing at me.

I also make up things when my kids ask me questions. Sometimes I know the answer and sometimes I know they know the answer, but I like to screw with them.

@Linkat,

I think her raison d'etre is to become one big knee jerk reactionary magnet. I was half serious when I indirectly asked her on a couple of occasions on whether she was some kind of plant for some kind of gotcha style television project trying to research racism on the internet.

I honestly think that's the one thing I've missed by not having kids.

i always thought if i'd had kids i would home school them and teach them odd speaking patterns, emphasis on the wrong syllables, horrid mispronunciations, like pronouncing the "ing" in of words like thinking as hinge, thinkinge

Just read them Dr. Seuss - he likes to use made up words and changes other words just to make them rhyme - does the same thing.

I would home school my children and teach them that cleaning toilets, showers and tubs are fun activites for kids, of which I could only look back fondly.
