(Emphasis mine) That's the key. To see (or be) as a child is the most over looked aspect of maturity. Sometimes, you just have to be childlike in your demeanor or you end up like Doug Kanter - bitter, constantly angry and disinclined to present a rational face to the world. I'll match my professional and education credentials against anyone else here, yet I can appreciate a good fart joke or bit of slapstick with as much enjoyment as any 7 year old. That's the difference between me and a large majority of the regulars here - I don't mind making an ass of myself from time-to-time - it keeps me humble. It's the uptight, faux pretention of superioity - hell, let's call it what it is, arrogance, that Chuck presents when things like this come up that that annoys me to no end. You know he laughed his ass off, but the Social Calvinist in him required that he punish himself and others for momentary "weakness". I'll take being class clown over class prig anytime. :) Chuck? |
