When you eliminate the tedious and boring, whatever remains, no matter how stupid, must be the fun! Life, distractions and the Wakefield Doctrine

Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers).

Two things that conspired to put my fingers into ‘find-the-words’ mode this morning:

  1. a ‘wall posting’ of some near-total stranger ( aka ‘a Friend’) on ‘the Facebook’
  2. a random (‘yeah, right!) thought about the fun of this Doctrine thing, nothing specific or in particular…something about Janie Smith and, at the same time, the fun when someone at work identifies someone as a clark or a scott or a roger…(someone with only a cursory knowledge of the Doctrine, my reaction is always a surprised laugh)

So this person on ‘the Facebook’,  Ana Lovelis (go ahead and like her page) wrote something about taking ‘an invisible pill’ and I immediately laughed and identified with what (I thought) she meant! So being the retiring and reclusive clark, I put a Comment on her comment ( “shh, the bait is in place…we must all remain quiet, act normal and see if they get curious“). In any event, it reminded me of the fun of this thing of ours. The other thought, about Janie and the kids at Millard Fillmore High, evoked a bit of fond reminiscence  of that period in the development of this blog.
So, lets consider the way(s) that this Wakefield Doctrine can help you today! If you play your damn cards right you will totally manage to have fun, be amused, find a diversion, secure entertainment, be constantly distracted and otherwise not get anything productive accomplished:

…first off look around the place you are at (work or school or home), there is a least one rogerreal close, when you are in a store, a supermarket or such…the girl with the most stuff in her hair? thats your  clark …you can talk to her…but only persist if you can get her to laugh within the first 3 three things you say… you want to have some scottian fun today? find a group of rogers  (yeah, like that’s hard to do, lol) they are everywhere at lunch they are the group who though they are sitting together a table, there seems to be one seat left open! thats for you, scott  (Note: you ‘advanced’ clarks?  go ahead try and sit down they will let you only if you don’t ask!)…you scotts don’t have to be told how to have fun with rogers but you might want to know how to flush out the clarks!…they will be more fun than a barrel of….  now, don’t think we have forsaken our rogerian friends, they just want to have fun…roger, yo!  for a truly interesting time at school  when the scott comes over to your little group?  laugh ‘out of sync’  (seriously!) just watch how the scott (male or female) is working your little group and laugh just as the laughter of your herd mates is dying down.. don’t worry you will know when the scott decides you are more fun than anyone else is…

OK everyone…like Alice sez, ‘schools out!’

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

    This is a true thing –

    (…thats your clark …you can talk to her…but only persist if you can get her to laugh within the first 3 three things you say…”

    A sharp wit implies a certain level/type of intelligence. clarklike females find this an attractive combo.

    “How does one, how can one dicipher when a clarklike female is simply being polite with her smile and when she is genuinely “engaged” in the exchange at hand”.

    Is there anyone out there who can answer this question? You! You there! In the last row, 3rd from the back. What have you to say?

  2. She should only attend concerts with Rogers. I have the answer to your question: If she touches her hair, spins it around while smiling, she is engaged in your conversation or what you have to say. If she has an object she toys with while you converse, she is engaged and likes your conversation. Smiling is the natural thing, but body language speaks volumes (without speaking, of course). I can get a Clark female to laugh immediately, if that’s what it takes. Combine a dumb witty response to something going on around you and then follow up with another groaner, but they will laugh or at least smile. The entire objective is to ENGAGE conversation. Once that is established, while with a Roger, she will enjoy a good Rogering (pun intended) *you smiled, didn’t you?
