people / humans
Monday, November 12, 2001 by feline | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
if reading this, anyone feels the need to point out that i am strange, feel free 
i find that people (minds) make sense, be they male or female. yes, this does imply that i can fathom the female mind, it isnt that hard.
however, humans (minds + bodies) are a total and unending mystery to me. i often find while watching tv that i want to scream at the people for doing such strange things, or at least things i dont fathom.
so the question becomes, what makes humans so different from people???

I guess we're both strange, because most of this makes perfect sense to me. Entertain a bizarre theory: the mind more or less makes sense, but the body produces those lovely hormones for us, that's where things go bad. We're all walking around half drunk on hormones, being guided by a mix of reason and emotion. Certain things can throw off the balance of the two. For example, I present myself with two thoughts: Breasts, chocolate. All of a sudden I abandon a promising thought and wheeeew...

JavaBrain - Chocolate.... it's not just for breakfast anymore!
feline starts to get worried that JavaBrain may not be getting enough chocolate in her diet
i never realised that there was a rule saying that chocolate was only for breakfast.
i often need some to keep me going till breakfast arrives (the kitchen is SUCH a long way to travel
)
and then there is mid morning chocolate snacks, mid afternoon snacks, i need cheering up snacks, and evening snacks as well

Chocolate is one of the food groups (The bottom of the pyramid) but it seems to get cut off in most representaions of the food pyramid. If I recall correctly, at least 1/2 of your calories for a day should come from chocolate. Chocolate covered cherries satisfies both the chocolate requirements as well as a fruit. Chocolate milk is a dairy plus chocolate. There was even a scientific diet produced to treat stress which incorporates a healthy dose of chocolate:
The "Stress" diet
BREAKFAST
1 grapefruit
1 slice whole-wheat toast
1 cup skim milk
LUNCH
1 small portion lean, steamed chicken with a cup of spinach
1 cup herbal tea
1 Hershey's Kiss
AFTERNOON TEA
The rest of the Hershey Kisses in the bag
1 tub of Hagen-Daaz ice cream with chocolate-chip topping
DINNER
4 glasses of wine (red or white)
2 loaves garlic bread
1 family size Supreme pizza
3 Snickers bars
LATE NIGHT SNACK
1 whole Sarah Lee cheesecake (eaten directly from the freezer)
REMEMBER: "Stressed" spelled backward is "desserts"
You can fight science!

oinky - I guess we're both strange
i prefer the term "reasuring normal, just surounded by strange people"

sounds very sensible to me. now if only i could understand hormonaly driven humans, i would know what was going on with them. but then i barely understand hormonaly driven me, it all seems so strange
feline concludes that oinky must be an intelectual
none of the males at work ever seem to get past breasts. they have a certain geometrical apeal admitadly, but surely after 5 minutes thought there isnt anything more to think about them is there???
however chocolate is *definetly* a different matter. just SO many lovely forms to enjoy

wow JavaBrain!
yikes!
(I heard chocolate gets the "mood" going), but after all that stuff JavaBrain you'd probably need a doctor and a stomach pump!
doubt you'd be in the mood after that!

i agree totaly!
eating garlic??? talk about dangerous!!!
the other problem seems to be not enough chocolate in the morning. i need extra chocolate early in the day to help get me going, not really beleiving in mornings personally. i am sure they are deeply evil!
as for mood, sex stimulates the same brain receptors as chocolate. probably a case of nature imitating perfection

you don't have Hersey's Chocolate kisses?
they're really small and wrapped in foil and just enough to take the edge off the choc craving w/o making you gain weight! hehe
well maybe the crispie thing might work, but as far as finding volunteers you may have a problem since most us girls tend to go for the dogs first...

i suspect that they may be immoral, and endagering peoples imortal soul! i suggest you move onto larger chocolate treats, they are far safer

feline still fails to fathom human mate choices
what about the mind? conversation? partnership? sharing common goals and ideas?
