Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
The first benefit of the Wakefield Doctrine: if we’re clarks, we now are certain there are others who share the same relationship with the world out there.
The second benefit of the Wakefield Doctrine: all of us have the potential to experience the world as do the ‘other two’ (worldviews), allowing us the possibility of identifying with everyone we encounter.
The third benefit of the Wakefield Doctrine: if you’re a clark, you can now be certain there are others who share the same relationship with the around around us.
(Yeah, thought to ourselfs, we thought, “Write something/anything from the perspective of the Outsider(clark). Any Reader, here more than once, will, if not a clark, i.e. a scott or a roger, will have a secondary clarklike aspect sufficient to smile at the brevity.”)
ya know?
(thanks to C. Palahniuk for the meme)
Indeed brevity is not typically represented within the worldview of a clark. Having said that, clarks possessing a secondary scottian aspect, are more adept at the brevity thing. (still used to many words to say that didn’t I, lol)
Yes.
You did.
Reminds me of a line in MASH from Winchester to Radar, “Be brief, and be gone!”
