2 + 2 = UHHH ?



I'm starting to think cognitive skills otherwise known as the ability to put 2 and 2 together is rapidly dwindling.......

With the uprise of Google, Bing, twitters, even FB, insert whatever search engine and mind personality blirt (Venue) you choose ....and laziness (possibly killing the ability to read one another or read between the lines, etc) following accordingly I find myself not even trying in any form of interaction or communicating and receiving many looks that only remind me of the following words


Buffering............still loading.......2%.......error.....blue screen of death...and for you mac users...volley ball of doom.

I guess with the world at your fingertips....that apparently justifies the loss of ones ability to listen and really think.....................if you haven't realized...I'm being sarcastic here.....BUT ITS ELEMENTARY my dear Watson.....no really you learned to think and assess at a young age I hope....

You may find that one is very powerful and can learn and solve AND avoid a lot of unnecessary things AND ACHIEVE A LOT when they can put 2 and 2 together. Eventually it all adds up to paying attention to details and the quality of which you receive information and retain it...........but as my mom would probably say...it usually goes "one ear and out the other".......so I guess most will probably google there own cognitive skills in substitution ...or into submission....and assume things the rest of their life as we throw our thoughts and actions out there unattended and not thought out ...therefore left to a BIG GREY AREA FOR MISINTERPRETATION MISUNDERSTANDING MISTAKES..........and the occasional awkward or unnecessary moments...and missing a lot of good fun.

you know eventually I just turn that confusion into a source of entertainment just to see people make that sloth face.....you know The Goonies HEEEEY YOOOU GUUUUUUYS!?

but hey I'm

P.s. and as always these are just my thoughts in the moment…..okay maybe for a while but a while in the moment….lol

  2. That's why I find it interesting, at least in the literary sense, to find something that challenges my ability to grasp the writer's point and possibly that is written in a witty way--either in a well-chosen way of words or simply a fresh view at a meaningful question.

    It also helps to write as well. Cognitive thinking and comprehension go hand-in-hand with one's ability to create (in a non-procreative way primarily) one's own work that can be comprehended, too--I'm looking at you, Snooki and the Situation!

    (For the record I've never seen the show... but that is the biggest example of brain-killing since this side of Beavis and Butthead.)
