Katrina sent me the link, not only because of the adorable kittens, but because I'm a big fan of labeling people sociopaths if it seems appropriate. That politician who voted to take away money from domestic violence funding? Probably a sociopath. That man who would rather work jobs for cash than pay child support? Probably a sociopath. The kindergarten teacher who talked to her students like they were idiots for no good reason? The remorseless seducer who leaves a string of broken hearts behind? That cat lady at the end of the block who screams at kids who come on her lawn to retrieve their ball...well, you get the idea. One in twenty-five people are sociopaths, meaning you know someone who is. I know that I've known a few, the hard part is admitting there are some people who just don't care about others and it's part of their brain chemistry and therefore they are not able to be rehabilitated.
Speaking of identifying sociopaths, there's a great book out there on the subject called "The Sociopath Next Door". Read it. Or get a cute kitten. It's your choice.
Goofy as a kitten! |
One in twenty-five? I'm glad my nearest neighbor is a mile away. Wait... the mail person comes by every six days. And the garbage guy comes by once a week. "Going postal...." Is there such a thing as "going garbage"? Crap... now I'm feeling paranoid.
ReplyDeleteOh those little meows just get to me. That is why I avoid shelters and pet shops. I have absolutely no willpower when it comes to kittens. Oh forget that, cats altogether.
ReplyDeleteYup, sociopaths all. How about those who make megabucks and vote against raising the minimum wage? But kittens who can resist them??
