Yevette gets a bit down from all the catcalling on Twitter which is largely a Katzenjammer Kitchen Club.
Part of the problem is the Egg People (i.e. their avatars look like chicken eggs) and they're almost always either hookers or someone with a major testicular challenge who uses that fake account as a beard to avoid revealing who they really are. Shoot on sight is about all one can do with them since they rarely offer much of any informational value.
The main deal with Twitter as with anything else is the Bell Curve since you have the Exceptionals on one end, the Non-Exceptionals on the other end, and the Averages are the majority and spread through the middle to make the actual bell. There isn't much to expect from the middle since even Big Ben is less predictable than that lot.
Once you start skiing the downhill side of the Exceptional end, maybe you will wind up with James Woods with an IQ of 184 which is the highest I've ever heard in anyone with whom I could identify in any tiny way. We hear every so often of some Korean kid (for example) with an IQ of 210 so we know there are Exceptionally Exceptional ones out there but we really don't know what becomes of them. Maybe they go to some brainiac tank where they all invent incredibly esoteric and impossible things. I've never seen any kind of survey so who knows.
We don't ski the downhill side of the other end since they're not much intelligent but they're almost always gentle so long as no-one screws with them. They don't or most don't have Down's Syndrome but my ol' Dad sometimes said of people with Down's Syndrome, they're frozen at the most gentle stage of human development.
Ed: you rank people solely based on IQ!
In fact, I don't but, in this context, it's what defines the Bell Curve. People really don't bring anything else to Twitter and how could they so, hence, the measure.
There's some general thinking with Yevette and also within myself to a lesser extent of 'bringing light to the dark room' but, in many cases, it's like trying to install eight spark plugs into a six-cylinder engine and you may try but it won't work and now the car won't even start anymore.
There isn't a plan to segue to the need for substantial educational reform which throws out the one-size-fits-all idea and addresses what people really are, all of us. We don't suggest walking away from that so it sits for another time.
The object is to ski with the Exceptionals and we will crash too when we try to run moguls with the 180 crowd but they often offer remarkable insights and those are what we want to find. Here's an example from yesterday and 'I bet a dollar to a donut' Lady Gaga has an IQ which is off the charts.
Note: a friend often used that 'bet a dollar to a donut' expression and it kind of makes sense but I'm eatin' that fuckin' donut and keep your dollar. Ha.
Ed: you will crash in moguls anyway!
Probably but it was a gas to try.
There's no need to walk away from Twitter but there's a growing need to walk away from the Egg People.
