I'm not really a cat person but he's cute.

I think huskies are medium maintenance dogs. They don't necessarily need fellow huskies to be happy. It's better if they have another husky but if you're affectionate enough it should be fine. But maybe I'm better off getting a beagle.

I study something which interests me, that is, human behaviour, the human condition and the mind. I'll admit that I'm too much of a pussy to pursue my true passion which is physics and astronomy because I'm mediocre at math and suck at calculus. I do believe that what I study works to a degree, however, it is foolish to deny the epidemic of over prescribing in the field of psychiatry. Pharmaceutical corporations will actually bribe psychiatrists to create new psychiatric disorders to include in the new editions of the DSM so they can release a drug for it and thus profit. This is why there always needs to be independent oversight. I think that the critique some psychologists have of modern day psychiatry is totally justified. I've seen people benefit from therapy, but saying that drugs will help everyone is moronic, sorry. I know that maybe this isn't what you meant but I think you have the wrong idea about me.


Yes, I do alienate people. It's hard not to. They are not interesting, they live in a bubble. They don't see the world for what it is and are too self absorbed to acknowledge what goes on. They are willfully ignorant of horrible things, incredible naive and are too preoccupied with menial goals and hedonistic ambitions.

Yeah I abuse alcohol, but can you really blame me?

plen , i bet you didn't even realise it's an allegory of a typified philosophical journey through the various ideological stages. And then there's still 5 more ij the series.

1) He had an overactive imagination as a child.
2) His father didn't give him enough attention whilst he was growing up.
3) The other kids found him too introspective and quiet and openly assumed it was because he was gay and as a result refused to be seen talking to him.

I quite like Patricia Highsmith.
I mean she's tremendously unlikable as a person, but she wrote nice things I appreciate.

Thoughts on Patricia Highsmith's work?
I've just finished the first Ripley book and quite liked it.
Apart from the Ripley series, what other novels of hers should I be reading?
