Humor is infectious. It lightens burdens, inspires hope, connects us to others, increases our insight, keeps us grounded, focused, alert, and happy.
Laughter is a universal language that stimulates both sides of the brain. It allows us to get messages quicker and remember them longer. We all learn more when we are having fun. Writing this blog is a creative exploration in sharing thoughts that make us laugh, smile, or think. Welcome and have a nice day!
Have you ever wanted to measure the speed and velocity of your thoughts? Curious which direction and how fast your thoughts lead you? Well now, thanks to Sophy's Neuroradar Gun, you can measure the trajectory of your thoughts AND your daydreams both!
WHY YOU NEED THIS
Psychologists have observed that faster processing speed in the brain is linked to higher scores on intelligence tests. It turns out that our reaction times say a lot about us in general. Responses slow down when people suffer certain psychological disorders such as depression. More puzzling, people with sluggish reaction times are more likely to die of incidents of strokes or heart attacks.
High speed thought processing is crucial to the way we perceive the world. Three or four times a second, our eyes dart in a new direction, allowing us only about 1/10th of a second to make sense of what we see. Conceivably, we want to make the most of that time.
HOW IT WORKS
The gravitational waves that travel through matter pass through our brains at lightening speed. Unfortunately, translation of these energie strands propagate at the speed of thought. Metaphorically, that means we must contrast the brilliance of gravitational-wave theory against the frustratingly slow progression of human thought as a whole to party on dude!
With Sophy's Neuroradar Gun, your thought speed is easily accessible and digitally recorded. By recording the speed of your thoughts on any subject, you can then analyze what is slowing you down, remove the impediment, and unleash your thoughts on the subject again!
Humor writing is a "funny" way to make a living. It's a reflection of the times and what people consider funny at the moment, and while it can have a quirkier, wilder, darker, or more eccentric side to it, the finest dialect humor has a kindness about it. The majority of all humor pokes fun at someone, which is what I suppose the curious "poke" button does on Facebook.
"Hey, I'm poking you... wanna poke back?"
I laugh a lot, I also dance, rollerblade, and burn cookies. Once everyone's stopped laughing about my burning the cookies, again, we're off on another lighthearted treasure hunt, waiting for the next person to spill their drink or slip on a banana peel...but all in good fun!
Humor is softer and builds slower than wit, which is unexpected in its superiority. For me, humor doesn't need to assault the mind. It's nicer when a joke laughs its way into my heart.
Humor doesn't analyze and probe like satire's critical eye, humor is warmly sympathetic, playful, sometimes lighthearted, and sometimes outrageously funny! Unlike the poisoned barb of satire and the killing point of wit, humor is healing. It's wholesome, creative, and rejuvenating.
Like with everything, times change and so do moods. I don't always yearn for the softer side of humor, sometimes softer feels dull. That's when the more tacit or poignant encounters mesmerize my mind and allow me to release built-up tension, the more tension I was carrying, the stronger the likelihood I'll end up rolling on the floor in uncontrolled merriment.
Laughter is often equated to the compensatory reflex of the sneeze. Maybe that's where they get the saying, "That is nothing to sneeze about."
I'm not entirely certain that humor alone can reach the dizzying heights of comic imagination, but a careful, Flaubertian-type writer could craft, sentence by sentence, and admirable swiftness of spinning words that ignite the softer side of us to come out and play.
And if that doesn't work
Cute photos of animals probably does the same trick
We used to think of the universe as a machine composed of elementary building blocks, but we have discovered the material world is a network of inseparable patterns of relationships; that all interactions between particles in the universe convey energy as well as transmit information. Particles collide AND compute their own dynamical evolution. As the process continues, stuff expands as well as contracts.
Most of the big-brained people who do or have investigated particle physics are attempting world domination. Yep. And for their efforts, they win Nobel Prizes and someone carves a bust of them and places it in a museum with the marble busts of other smart people.
I always wanted to win a Nobel Prize, I just didn't know what for. I'd love for it to be in quantum theory, but then again, I'd have to spend the time to write up my thoughts on the matter.
What I do like to do is spend my time thinking about funny stuff. It doesn't matter if I'm contemplating the second law of thermodynamics or Schrodinger's kitty cat experiment, asking myself what's funny opens up new ways of being and seeing in the world. It brings in fresh thoughts. Which I suppose on a quantum level is that flow of new energie that pours in when you expand in a new direction.
Irrespective of what we discover about the material or quantum universe during my lifetime, I'd much rather spend my time giggling or allowing my finite brain to be mystified by infinity than confident in anything I could ever learn, believe, or know.
The cool thing about the quantum universe is that life takes on a new vision. Any strand or particle is worth investigating and when you explore deeper, you're in it - knee deep. Since I have not published a book on the matter that you could have downloaded online or picked up on the clearance rack at Borders, this blog is just another representation of a tiny strand of thought that looks like a particle from a distance.
Reading my thoughts would be impossible if the whole digital age did not exist, and it wouldn't without quantum physics. So, whether you're like me and fascinated by quantum theory, or whether you think it's just the stuff scientists think about while waiting for the bus, it's the energetic material behind the physical skeleton of the universe, a pulsating blueprint behind everything we see, hear, feel, touch, think, believe, wonder, and hope for.
