Thinking is Silent
There's no one example, there's an endless supply of babbling.
One person, with a wispy voice fitting someone that blubbers on incessantly with her words floating from her mouth with no particular direction or purpose, because they weren't powered by thought. She was merely making noise just to prove she could, so she was alive.
Another ends every sentence with "I don't know". Yet there is surely another sentence to follow and is clear to all that he doesn't know. He just makes noise.
If a bear shits in the woods, is he disappointed no one was there to hear it? We feel the need to take verbal craps just to prove we can. Worse, we need people to acknowledge our crap.
There are billions of people spewing drivel into cell phones. These people might be at dinner with other people, but they're on the phone to someone else.
The constant tsunami of bullshit doesn't allow people to reboot, to think. They just keep talking. Their mouths move and sounds come out, but they've drained the tub of thought dry.
Yet, it doesn't occur to them to shut-the-fuck-up.
Or hey, how about asking a question?
Much of the blame goes to cell phones. Every one I've asked says they got it for business or emergencies or for their kids safety.
Yeah, OK, that's why I've overheard countless meat-sacks droning on and on about what they're doing right now which is talking to a person and telling them about talking to them.
Cell phones are one of the great marketing campaign of all times. They tell us we need to be connected all the time, we need to talk all the time or text.
It's just my humble opinion, but we could use a big ol' bag of "shut-the-fuck-up". So we might be able to recharge our brain pans and actually have something to say the next time we open our pie hole.
That's what I mean by "Thinking is Silent".
