Quackpottery of the Day
Sep. 28th, 2005 09:52 amAs many of you know, I'm fascinated by unintentional humor created by those who, while remaining fully functional in our society, are gullible to the point of mental illness.
Someone on my lj friends list (who in recent weeks has felt herself to be on the verge of inventing The Grandiose Answer to The Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe and Everything) consulted her Mayan Astrological Reading. Did you know, according to the "Dreamspell Galactic Signature", I am a Galactic Activation Portal? ;) Whoo-hoo. Who knew those Mayans were so in tune with the galaxies? As usual with fortunetelling, the handwaving pronouncements of today's Quackpottery are utterly devoid of content. One thing I can say in its favor though, is that the output of the Dreamspell Calculator is very colorful and pretty. It's no worse than any livejournal meme quiz. Check it out.

phecda commented that he felt like the characters in the webcomic Bruno are similar to the dramatis personae of his own life. This caused me to look on many of my acquaintances, and some of my loved ones, with whom I am occasionally annoyed, in a new light. My mood has been lightened on many occasions by this viewpoint. If they are characters in the sitcom of my life, I want it to be interesting. Would I really rather be surrounded by boring people? I think not. This is why I treasure a spectrum of "lunatic" fringes like a garden of exotic flowers. As long as they can function and aren't hurting anybody, I actually feel great affection for the reality-impaired, and hope to keep them around.
