Psychology and Me
Neurotron | 25 May 2004, 8:23pmI think the sole purpose of psychology is to confirm your worst suspicions and convince you that you are, in fact, crazy.
I was introduced to the joys of amateur psychology way back when. Of course, I knew right then I was sort of a little 'on the turning away', shall we say. But the joy of that inner chuckle when you look at the other dorks in the playground and think to yourself "heh heh heh...I know what makes you tick, you weasel" can never be underestimated. I am, of course, still a raving lunatic waiting to happen.
The sex-obsessed Freud was God. I mean, he said it was ok to be obsessed with sex. A guy can't get cooler than THAT! Everything bad in your sorry-ass life now was the direct result of some trauma inflicted on your poor, immature psyche when you were a child. Hence, nothing is YOUR fault, really. One can get away with murder. Hmmm...maybe this explains why I love Frasier so much. Among many other reasons, of course, not least of which is the brand of humour.
Ohhhh yeaaahhh...I love psychology. We go way back...

There's a joke which goes -
Q: Why doesn't psychoanalysis work with men?
A: 'Cos when it's time for them to go back to their childhood, they realise they're already there.
Muahahahaha.
And if you studied Freud for 5 straight years, you wouldn't quite like him that much. Now Jung... he was something different.
-Aran, psychologist. :)

hmmm...so I've heard, about Jung, that is. Care to educate an amateur?

Now that would be one hell of a big lesson!

I've got the time, if you've got the patience.
C'mon, help me out here...I'm only a dumb GUY after all!

Yep, I'll start posting 12 word pages worth of Jung info on your blog now. :D
