Tuesday (or how to practice using the Wakefield Doctrine) the Wakefield Doctrine …some you half-know this stuff already, the rest of you? hopeless!

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

The Wakefield Doctrine is an unquiet, persistent and fearsome tool, used properly it will change how you see the world and the people in it, on a fundamental and essential level.

If you want me to say this in a more traditional and comfortable way, I will, but you must do something first, my babies. I will stop being weird (er) provided you Readers collectively, individually, working as small cadres that are loosely bound by a desire to learn this Wakefield Doctrine, whatever… do the following:

  • pick one or two people who are active1 in your day and decide for yourself if they are a clark or a scott or a roger
  • at some point in your day, while in the company of others, make the following statement; ” Well, (so-and-so) was being especially clarklike today” or “(Mr. or Ms.) was really showing his/her scottian nature today” or “I can’t believe how rogerian (this person) was acting today, going so far as to (give an example)”.
  • the statement must be made at normal conversational levels, not overly loud (scotts) nor mumbled incoherently (clarks), simply a statement.
  • you must use the correct pronunciation:  clarklike (clark ‘like) scottian (scoe ‘shun) and rogerian (row jeer ‘ian)
  • finally, you may respond to the questions of others (after having made this statement, in any manner except “oh, nothing  I didn’t say anything!”

If anyone of you who is not DS#1 or Ms. AKH does this thing and writes a Comment telling us about their experience, I will try to return to a more normal and enjoyable writing style.

…questions?  Then why are you still staring at this screen?? Go on!  Get out there and do this thing!

Hey clarks!! The scottian and rogerian Readers think that they know the benefit of actually going along with the Request in this Post. And, in a sense, they are correct…from a traditional, mainstream perspective. And you, as clarks, sorry to say it, would normally not get the understanding of the benefit… except this is the Wakefield Doctrine and here things are different. I will go so far as to say, that here at the Wakefield Doctrine, things are very more different for clarks than for scotts and rogers  and all in a totally positive sense.   Not that it makes your job easier! But you have so much more advantage than the other two and so much more to gain… how sad for us that we will read this statement and feel worse!  Too bad! too sad!  Go on, get out there! Do this one simple thing today and come back and tell us all about it. I guarantee that you will be glad that you did.

1)  meaning co-worker, classmate, spouse, friend, girlfriend/boyfriend2 or your boss3

2)  might want to hold off on these, for conjugal reasons if nothing else

3)  same here, ‘cept maybe not as conjugal

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

      no binyon, you cannot!

      …you can however, relate your most recent experience (similar to today’s task) provided you can do it in ’75 words or less’

      true, but this exercise is meant to help Readers break-the-ice, Doctrinistically-speaking to get a sense of trying it out…think of it this way: we give you a phrase in (pick a language/any language) and drop you off in the city where the langauge is spoken and you walk up to a stranger and (politely) speak the sentence.
      (at first opportunity you say, “Hey look! It’s Halley’s Comet!!!” and when they turn to look, you run around the corner where we are waiting in a vehicle to wisk you back to Doctrine-ville, where you are welcomed to the cheers and accolades of your fellow Readers), so as I mentioned to DS#1, share some of your own adventures (not any involving fatalities, of course).
