TToT -the Wakefield Doctrine-

February 7, 2026 By clarkscottroger 8 Comments

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

This is the Wakefield Doctrine’s contribution to the Ten Things of Thankful (TToT) bloghop. Each week the invitation is extended to bloggers and other writers to create and link a list of the ten things that push to the Free Associate line when the word ‘Gratitude’ is announced. Limited only by one’s imagination, it is a good thing to do with words and such.

So, come on down!

For the Doctrine, our TToT list (down through the Summers):

1) Phyllis

2) Una

3) the Wakefield Doctrine

4) the Six Sentence Story bloghop

5) the days are getting longer (while that might not shovel the snow, it do make it less oppressive)

6) lets try this: a vid clip from 2013 which we’re grateful we uploaded the following video proving there is a time when the temperature rises above 32°

7) just looked at the whole post…clearly we’re grateful for living near an ocean

8) something, something

9) damn! new frozen water this morning! Grateful for the song prompt!

10) Secret Rule 1.3 (from the Book of Secret Rules, aka the Secret Book of Rules)

Six Sentence Story -the Wakefield Doctrine- [an Order of Lilith Six]

February 6, 2026 By clarkscottroger 10 Comments

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

This is the Doctrine’s contribution to the Six Sentence Story bloghop.

Hosted by Denise, constrained by a sentence limit (high and low) of six, there are worse ways to spend the remaining time you have on earth.

Previously…

Prompt word:

BRAND

“Welcome to the 414 Hotel, that’ll be sixty-nine eighty plus tax…cash.”

Sister Aclima nodded and placed a random assortment of bills on the coffee-and-sweat-stained counter of the front desk, her nose wrinkling in a purely atavistic defense against the smell of cigars, despair and too much mouthwash; pulling the money to his side, the clerk counted out the amount in a slow, overly-deliberate pace.

“Sorry, sista, check-in ain’t until four,” rudimentary social signaling managed to move his eyes and lips, the former tracing her contours like greasy cue balls, the latter tried to fight their way past a sneer…and failed.

“Would you mind if I left my bag behind the counter,” her lips, sensing the exposure inherent in a smile, retreated into a characteristic flattening, though to her credit, a touch of incisors remained evident.

“I get off at two, but I’ll leave Refael, a note, shouldn’t be no problem,” gender imperative took control of the man’s nonverbal speech centers and his eyebrows raised, “a course, if ya need company for dinner;” his effort to slide a corporate branded card to her was undone by something sticky on the countertop, resulting in a smudge as his index and middle fingers slid over the glossy surface.

Sister Aclima, not being in an Order that dealt in divine intercession, nevertheless heard a voice, which she suspected of being her former self, Kayla Sheperd, “We passed a thrift store one block up, time to go native.”

Six Sentence Story -the Wakefield Doctrine-

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

This is the Wakefield Doctrine’s contribution to Denise’s Six Sentence Story bloghop.

Prompt Word:

BRAND

“Look, Lorraine told this girl at work about you and she seemed open to a causal, really quite harmless, double…”

“Date?”

“Well, if you want to call it that, yeah, a date. The fact is we’re worried about you since… you know, ever since the breakup all you do is work and come back to this apartment, that’s no kind of life.”

The two young men had been friends for… well, throughout college, which anyone who has a dog can tell you, time is not required to pass at a rate of 12 months to a year; in fact, both of them, living on campus when they met, knew time was totally a quantum affair: one semester as quick as a Summer Vacation Week, the next, how long it feels going from being a young adult to crippled senior.

“I guarantee you, she’s a nice normal girl; if blind dates were consumer brands, she’d be approved for a commercial during “Threes Company” and, maybe even “Little House on the… nah, lets stay with the after 9:00 pm demographic, so whaddaya say?”

Six Sentence Story -the Wakefield Doctrine- [a Rosetta and the Sophomore Six]

“So did your little gangster friends tell you where we need to go to recover this… what did you call it again?”

“A Time Mechanism, more specifically, of course…”

…of course,” even in their short time together, the Sophomore learned to limit himself to the italicized adverbial phrase, given his propensity for dressing irony up in sarcasm, very much on-brand for the young man.

“…Dr. Egmont’s Time Mechanism,” arching a single perfect eyebrow, which, in the semaphore of post-pubescent relationships, is the universal ‘Stop Danger’ signal, continued, “Now, if you don’t mind I need to get organized.”

Rosetta Storme, sitting on the encircling ledge of the Bethesda Fountain, returned her attention to the contents of her purse while exhibiting all the self-consciousness of a teenage girl on the patio of her parent’s suburban home.

“Jesus Christ, is that a gun?!”

“Ethan, I think there are people over on 72nd Street in a tour bus that may not have heard you; stop staring and let’s get back to the hotel, we have an ambitious itinerary to plan and if you’re fortunate, you might get lucky.”

When Nez Dae -the Wakefield Doctrine-

February 4, 2026 By clarkscottroger 2 Comments

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

Today we review the Basics.

The Wakefield Doctrine is gender, age and culture neutral.

The only one personality types that should matter is yours.

Asking ‘Why’ to the previous assertion is not a good sign.

The Wakefield Doctrine is for you, not them.

A clark’s curiosity is as inexhaustible as a scott’s libido and a roger’s certainty.

ed. from 13 years and 8 days ago:

clarks: the Outsider, view the world as would any rather intelligent, fairly resourceful, not so aggressive explorer would. The goal for most clarks is to learn the information that they surmise was made available to every child (they may have been in the bathroom at the time of the ‘how to be like everyone else’ lesson) and therefore be in a position to continue their lives in as close to a satisfying and fulfilling manner as possible. In the meantime, clarks will spend their time on the fringe, they will cultivate friendships with scotts and rogers to help pass the time and to get them into the better clubs. clarks are the truly creative of the three personality types which sounds cooler than it actually is, as most expressions of extreme creativity are, as a rule, met with scorn, disdain and disregard (not to mention, not paying very well). clarks take un-selfishness to a near psychotic level, valuing loyalty over any other ‘common emotional experience’, they will be the best, of the three personality types, to have around at times of emergency, they make excellent school teachers (female clarks: grade school, male clarks: late high school, college). The saying is ‘clarks live quietly and leave a well-preserved corpse’

scotts: the Predator, view the world as any well-armed, well-equipped conqueror would. The goal for most scotts is to live life to the fullest, everyday, up until someone forces them to stop. scotts are natural leaders, with the qualification that those who follow scotts do not have any carefully thought-out expectations as to where they will end up, (when the scott becomes bored with the leadership-thing). scotts crave attention the way that most aerobic lifeforms crave oxygen, so much so, that a scott will settle for any kind of attention, up to and including: derision, laughter, scorn, hate, love or passion….all the same to a scott. female scotts created the stiletto heel industry, single….er, handedly, scotts, both male and female are attracted to rogers as their preferred form of nourishment. scotts do enjoy the company of clarks, as clarks are neither prey nor predator (at least, most of the time)…scotts are just out for a good time, a loud time, a passionate time. These are the people that they say, ‘live fast (with as many partners as possible) and leave a burnt out shell of a corpse’

rogers: the Herd Member, rogers view the world as does the Cleric standing behind the Conqueror and is salivating at the prospect of bringing salvation to an entire race of indigenous peoples. rogers are the reason that we have: civilization, healthcare, culture, jihad(s), jetliners that hardly ever crash, a banking system (that will on occasion, crash) law and justice, witch burnings and the commercialization of the arts. rogers provide stability to the human experience at the cost of innovations and creativity. after a the scott has raped and pillaged and burned the new continent and moves on, the rogers will organise and provide relief to the survivors, provided they (the survivors) are willing to accept the lord and god and the rules and the life that he (the roger) is so kind to bring to a people, so obviously in dire need. These people! these are the ones we say, ‘live moderately and imagine how many people will attend the funeral of the corpse that proves you lived‘.
