Welcome to the Wakefield Doctrine (the theory of clarks, scotts and rogers)
We used to get into writing posts that (included) subtitles. They were fun. In part, because the subtitles allowed one to start in one place, rhetorically, and end up in another.
So, lets do that this morning. (Though, as a Reader, you aren’t ‘seeing this’, I just added the subtitle. To you, the post has ‘always’ been as you saw it when you clicked on the link*.)
Didja know there are only three ‘personality types’ in the Wakefield Doctrine”
Of course you did!
They are:
- clarks(Outsiders)
- scotts(Predators)
- rogers(Members of the Herd)
The reason for the hypotenuse** on the term, personality types, is to draw attention to core difference between us and the Oscar Meyer Epipens crowd.
But, we’ve just run out of time. The ‘real’ world is shouting like Stanley Kowalski
* which, as students of the Doctrine will smile to each other, “We just dodged a metaphysical bullet, and it’s only Monday!”
** in the lexicon of humor here, the use of that word would be both a reference to a style of humor found in one of the three worldviews (hint: rogers) and a test. Yeah, a test to illustrate what it takes, in personal qualities to get the most from our little personality theory… what we used to call, flexibility of intelligence. It’s not that we not all pretty damn bright and such. It’s just that the Doctrine requires of it’s students that we all be curious and are not bothered by the nonsensical***.
*** don’t laugh! The lack of an appreication of the silly is surely a hallmark of a person who wants ever thing to be clear, unambiguous and lead to a sure payoff. Sorry, the Wakefield Doctrine will so not guarantee that!
Naja already posing at the entrance? Guess somebody/ies approved her !
Seriously, the pics you choose at each post are worthy of the term anthology!
totally half the fun (of posts, like, from the very beginning)
Gene Wilder, as Willy Wonka, “A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men.” That’s one of my favorite movies.
we, as a people, have a certain talent or, at very least, an innate sensitivity to the nonsensical
