Have you ever pondered how many UserNames and Passwords and PinCodes you remember each day? I mind fucks me.
I was lying in bed on Friday night thinking of how many gadgets we use that need pin codes and how many websites and tools we use that we need User Names and Passwords. Its actually incredible how we log into our network in the morning and pop in our passwords without giving it much thought. Its like riding a bike, or driving a car - after a while you just get in and do it without even thinking.
We have passwords and pin codes for everything! To retrieve messages on our mobile phones, to find out how many free minutes we have left on our mobile contract, when we draw money from our local ATM or do internet banking. When we log into our network in the morning at work, there's four or five passwords already!How about logging on to your Blogger account or downloading your internet emails? More fuckin' UserNames and passwords.
But thats just the beginning...what about logging on to your favourite Forum for a chat? or all the bookmarked websites that we register on? More passwords. Then we go to gym and log in to record our workout, we get back to the office, pop in a pin code for the front door security, we get to our desks to find that our screensaver has kicked on - another password.
Well, you get the general idea right?
Isn't it amazing how we remember all these numbers and information? They're stored deep in some obscure data retrieval section of our brain (right next to our profrontal cerebal cortex or something...). We pick up the phone and dial friends or clients' numbers without even thinking.
And the mad scientists state we only use 10% of our brain power?Imagine what we could achieve if we only used 50% of our brain power? We'd all be fucking Einsteins!!
The question is, how do we get our brains to increase this percentage and use more brain power? Do we need to train our brain? Is there a quick 2-day course to learn to do this? I'm sure that we could teach our brain to increase its workload but who would've been smart enough to write the book on it or develop a course for us to attend to learn to do this? He'd be one stinkin' rich Plonker by now or have taken over the universe single-handedly without us "10%ers" suspecting a thing.That made me think of Pinky and the Brain
Perhaps there is a soopa pill we can take or a highly invasive surgical procedure complete with satisfying anal probes that we can have to achieve this?We all wanna be smarter, right?
With all the latest modern technology surely someone has come up with a technique to help us out? Throw us "ten percenters" a bone here...
Then again, we'd all be geniuses and the inteillgence bar would be permanently raised. We'd then be trying to achieve 70% or 80% of our brain power and we'd all be wearing masks and capes and flying around like fucking super heros. And depending on your disposition, you'd either be trying to screw the TenPercenters-of-the-world in the arse for something or you'd be sucessfully saving the world from global warming and flying to mars.
Are we ready for that?
I really must stop having these late night ponderings. I sound completely fuckin nutterz.
