My iTunes Psychology Experiment

Sunday, September 27th, 2009 by Fuzz

This is an exclusive FuzzMartin.com psychology experiment. Open up iTunes and sort your entire library by “play count.” Look at the top five (at least) songs. I am willing to bet that those songs tell a lot about your life, your moods, and your experiences. Now, this doesn’t really take time into effect, because you may have gone through some high or low stretches some time ago that may have included a lot more music-playing time – or you may be going through a big experience now, but your playlist hasn’t had time to catch up to what you’re currently experiencing. Either way, it will be fun to look at.

Post your results in the comments section and let us know if it works.

Mine (right now):

  1. I’m No Superman (Lazlo Bane)
  2. Lost One (Jay-Z)
  3. Nothing Lasts Forever (Maroon 5)
  4. Flake (Jack Johnson)
  5. Mexico or Crazy (Jason Boland and the Stragglers)

And yes, mine’s pretty close.

You Liberals Really ARE Crazy 5-Year-Old Kids

From WorldNet, via Rach, via Cassy Fiano:

 Just when liberals thought it was safe to start identifying themselves as such, an acclaimed, veteran psychiatrist is making the case that the ideology motivating them is actually a mental disorder.

“Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded,” says Dr. Lyle Rossiter, author of the new book, “The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness.” “Like spoiled, angry children, they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave.”

Rossiter says the kind of liberalism being displayed by the two major candidates for the Democratic Party presidential nomination can only be understood as a psychological disorder.

“A social scientist who understands human nature will not dismiss the vital roles of free choice, voluntary cooperation and moral integrity – as liberals do,” he says. “A political leader who understands human nature will not ignore individual differences in talent, drive, personal appeal and work ethic, and then try to impose economic and social equality on the population – as liberals do. And a legislator who understands human nature will not create an environment of rules which over-regulates and over-taxes the nation’s citizens, corrupts their character and reduces them to wards of the state – as liberals do.”

Dr. Rossiter says the liberal agenda preys on weakness and feelings of inferiority in the population by:

  • creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization;
  • satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence and compensation;
  • augmenting primitive feelings of envy;
  • rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government.

    “The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness – can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind,” he says. “When the modern liberal mind whines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious.”
