Dumb Things

I should clarify that last quote...

Penning a few words here is not a dumb thing, even if it is a dumb person writing. A lot of other stuff I do is certainly dumb, and that is the stuff I like to do faster so I can have more time to write stuff here and do other stuff that is not dumb.

In fact, I feel sort of obligated to scribble some thoughts to discuss the regular dumb things. Acknowledging them and trying to understand what compels me to engage in them somehow makes them less dumb.

If they are truly dumb, maybe they are only of value if they are recognized for their futility and used as an example of what not to do. After all, the most awful movie has incredible value as an example of what not film.

Maybe the first 35 years of our lives are that dumb period where we'll one day look back and remember why we don't do dumb things any more. I hope that's the case.

Thought I had something else to say. Hm. Well, back to doing dumb things.
