Curtsey from our bloggerini… Janine and Kate, Stephanie and Dawn… they started this thing and, they have inveigled upon Kristi to join them this week.

(“..but if you wear those clothes, people won’t be able to tell how attractive you really are… just give the other kids a chance, they are all just shy… remember, they are more afraid of you than you are of them… try not to be so odd, your cousins and grand parents came from so far away and even though you don’t want to do this, do it for me, if not yourself… “)

I blog because...

(“...that is the question, clark you know the answer… no, no one is staring at you, you know that you really enjoy this, why can’t you for once just not feel like it’s all about you?… they all just want to be friends...)

I blog because...

( Hey!!  you know they’re right … Hey Kristi!!  nice rack!!!  yo!   lol  yeah… that is is funny, isn’t it?  then there’s the one about the guy on the island with the three….  don’t listen to him, you are all so right in what you are doing here… yes, I do seem to attract a certain amount of attention… no, I don’t mind, they all mean well  and I rarely have to make them behave.   WOOO HOOO,  I got yer Post  right here….  no,  I don’t think thats highly inappropriate… I think that’s ighly funny  screww you… lol  (only if that Kristi chick wants me to quiet down...)

I blog because...

Well, what exactly do you want to know? Whether I am a clark or a scott or roger? If you have to ask, then you need to keep reading the Posts for two reasons: a)to get a clear enough understanding to be able to make the determination of which type I am and 2) to realize that by definition I am all three.* *which is true for you as well, all three...but mostly one

  1. Clark, you had me cracking up here and love how you ended it with “I don’t know”!! Seriously, thanks for always linking up with us and hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend my friend!! :)

      @Janine

      (whew!) thanks for that Janine… I honestly don’t know about some of the stuff I write here.. but if you like it, then it’s alright

    Clark, either you’ve got way too many voices going on in your head, or the stream-of-consciousness thinking has taken over your clarkified brain. If that’s the case, I now understand why all my thoughts seem to run together and I’m never sure where they’re going to end up or why I do that and sometimes I just have to run all my thoughts together just to fill the space between I don’t even know what that means it might be poetic or it could just be another voice in my head.

    • clarkscottroger clarkscottroger says:

      @Cyndi

      exactly…(that/that* is totally why I like you)

      * yeah, that, that too!

  3. Yeah….sorry about that whole essay question thing. I think all three of you passed with flying colors. And kudos for your use of the word inveigled. Nice one. Also kudos for making my day with another fantastic comment. Please feel free to invent your own acronyms anytime- they are far superior to the standard ones, BTW.

      @Stephanie

      hey, we are bloggers! I believe the (Secret) Rights of Blog Writers Convention, coveys the inalienable right to make them things up as we go along. Way compliments on such a huge turnout… you 4 (plus Kristi) deserve mad respect for the FTSF

  4. Considerer says:

    Way to keep it simple ;) Love it.

  5. Emily says:

    Hahaha! Very funny answers from Clark, Scott, and Roger. They sure keep us laughing.:)

    • clarkscottroger clarkscottroger says:

      @Emily

      thank you! I’ll be sure to tell them. Serially, the fact that I am still at it (writing this blog) should be either scary or impressive, given that it is all about ‘them’ and ‘it’ (the Wakefield Doctrine).
      ..I’m sure I get it done eventually lol.

  6. Holy sh!t my friend. This just may well be my favorite FTSF post ever in the history of time. Why? Because from an anthropological scientific woman’s standpoint of the highest intellectual standing ever – it’s about ME ME ME. Oh Scott. Were I more mature and able to “shoo” you, but well. I’m Scott-enough from college days to feel more than mildly flattered. And Clark? We really do just want to be your friend. I promise. And Roger…huh? Right. What you said.

    LOVE THIS.

      …where the hell is that !$%^%@ time machine?! wait a minute! it’s here…in this virtual reality place lol

    I have been seeing your comments on Considerer’s posts, and was a bit curious as to what the clark/roger/scotts you mention means. Now that I’m here, I thought I had it figured out. I think. I do believe I’m a scott. But then I read this post, and got confused all over again. I’ll keep trying. :)

    • clarkscottroger clarkscottroger says:

      @Christine

      basically it means that if you imagine that everyone is acting on the basis of a personal reality characterized as being that of the Outside or the Predator or the Herd Member, the things they do make more sense.

      As to being confused? don’t give it a second thought, we all are when we start with this blog.
      The fact that you’ve stayed with it this far, tells me that you will ‘get it’. The most common source of confusion comes from the fact that while we all are ‘predominately’ one of the three types, we retain the capabilities of ‘the other two’.
      In fact, if you are a scott, then you have a secondary clarklike nature, indicated by the fact that you have gotten this far. (this is not an egotistical statement about clarks, rather it is meant to imply that since scotts live in a world where ‘action means everything’, where the concrete and the ‘here and now’ are all that matters* A person with just a scottian worldview would not be interested in this thing and, in fact, would not have the imagination to ‘get it’. The idea of secondary (and tertiary) aspects is meant to imply that it is not black and white…clark or scott or roger.
      So a secondary clarklike aspect would yield a scott with a pronounced curiosity and a ‘tolerance of the subjective’ It, (the secondary aspect), does not produce another personal reality (worldview), but it does allow the individual additional insights, ways to see the world. This topic, (secondary aspects), is so the hot topic lately round the Doctrine.
      The thing about the Wakefield Doctrine is ‘you can’t break it’ and ‘you can’t get it wrong’…. (yes, we’re serious! lol) The approach we all take is to ‘try on’ each of the worldviews and see which fits the best, allows the clearest focus as you look out on your life. (lets try it a little here)….

      If you are a scott, then you will tend to be ‘focused on action’ (doing things instead of sitting around)… you are very emotional, but in a mercurial sense (as opposed to a drama queen sense), which means you have a great capacity for emotion… but it is focused in the here and now, if you get mad, everyone run for cover….but! once it’s over, it’s over. No smoldering resentment for you, it’s never ‘personal’
      You are (very) attractive to the opposite sex, (lol that simple… I could on at length on this topic….and will, at the slightest provocation), but you are not overly concerned with this effect, you don’t have time! life is too much fun! and…and you really like your friends, in the case of the Considerer, you are also very protective, you do not tolerate strangers who might seem to be messin with your friends (she, of course, is way competent to deal with pretty much anything)… but thats how you feel.
      It sounds like you might be that fairly rare (at this moment in the development of this blog) scottian female with a secondary clarklike aspect. But try it out… there’s nothing wrong with being a roger or a clark….

      *allow for exaggeration and hyperbole…it’s much more fun this way. this is a personality theory of tendencies and preponderances

  8. Michelle says:

    Now there’s a lot going on in there! I’m Rogerian….so I’ll get a little ostentatious and say “HELLO, LOVE YOUR POST!! And that you show us exactly what’s on your mind! Thanks, Clark!!

    • clarkscottroger clarkscottroger says:

      @Michelle

      thank you I really do appreciate your input as, (with the exception of Janine),… your people* are under-represented in this Comment-forum and since the goal of the Doctrine is to create tools that allow all of us to develop our respective secondary (and tertiary) aspects to whatever degree we feel is appropriate. The rogerian worldview is very much the terra incognito for (some of us) clarks… so any and all input is helpful (and fun!)

      *rogers, of course!

  9. Dana says:

    I like your post better than mine – wanna trade?

    • clarkscottroger clarkscottroger says:

      @Dana

      yes! (…Ms.’44-Comments-on-a-Single-Post’ lol) ( the question on Doctrine Readers collective mind is: among your preferred footwear, are the confortable boots or the heels(of various heights) the winner?*)

      *we are such a personality theory that we know about preferred footwear of the people who write Comments (sort of) lol

  10. Hi, loved the post! But I would hate to have to explain it to one of my spanish-speaking students who are trying to learn English! I think they would go crazy, poor things, and think it was their fault! Naughty, naughty! See you soon!

    • clarkscottroger clarkscottroger says:

      @Joan

      it’s a deal, when I have the Doctrine in a book and ready for the global market, I will contact you for the translationing… good hearing from you!

  11. Jen says:

    You crack me up. Nice try hiding behind all of those “air quotes” personalities. We know why you blog. You cannot help it. All of those thoughts need to escape to somewhere or you are more than likely going to drive someone NUTS. So you blog. Now You can drive us nuts instead, and we will even thank you for it.

  12. Sylvia says:

    I’m new here, so obviously I have no idea what you’re talking about! But like Cyndi said-me thinks you have more than one voice in your head! LOL!! Guess I’ll have to read some more to figure you out! Thanks for stopping by and commenting on my blog!

    • clarkscottroger clarkscottroger says:

      @Sylvia

      lol given that we all have more than one voice* in our head, the question then becomes ‘what good is it to have more than one voice but only one reality?’ Glad you could stop by and I will say that as we do this more (explain the principles and application of our little personality theory) the easier it is for Readers to get what we are trying to say and therefore be in a position to decide if it is useful and valuable to them. This blog is for fun, but it is meant first and foremost to be useful, to those so inclined.
      If you have any questions, let us know or ask Cyndi! She is quiet an adept at this Doctrine.

      *she would be referring to the notion of three characteristic worldviews, the foundation upon which the Wakefield Doctrine is built.

  13. Terrye says:

    I suddenly realized that the reason you talk about 3 different personalities is because yer schizophrenic! All three are trapped inside yer brain! HA! And at least your honest about why you blog. “I am, therefore, I blog.” Period. :D

    • clarkscottroger clarkscottroger says:

      @Terrye

      (you scotts do tend to get to the heart* of the matter). but are you sure it shouldn’t be “I blog, therefore I am… providing the internet connection stays live”?

      *the warm, torn bloody heart, ripped from the breast of the prey…the long chase leaving you (the predator) exhausted and the soon-to-be-consumed prey, serene in their acceptance of the way of nature…**
      **yeah, no! makes sense to me! lol
