Kim du Toit Is a Genius

So, it's been a while posting, I know, but check this out.

My favorite bit:

In the meantime, they do stuff that’s pleasing to them—solitary or detached
pursuits, from video games to hobbies like fishing or hunting—because those
are not part of the game. So they go to work, put in the hours, and don’t
care about their work, their careers or the job. They smile, go to endless
meetings, work by “teaming” and in short, they do all the role-playing that
they need to do in order to get by.

I was feeling guilty about considering work “fundraising” for video games, fishing, hunting, and science fiction books, but I feel better now. And I’m about one more “recommendation” on how to paint and decorate my house to just do it all in ways that *I* find pleasing, since women seem to think that owning your own home means you have *more* money to throw around.

Oh! Oh! One chick actually told me that I should keep the childproofing all over the place since "at [my] age, you are probably only going to get women that already have kids." My ideas on the state of modern "child-proofing" could fill another blog entry... I'll admit that in San Antonio, I'd be lucky to find a woman without kids, but that would have been the case when I was 25, too. At this point I'm just kinda counting myself lucky that I have a dog and a nice TV and a backyard and a really cool vehicle and a degree and an XBox 360 and a "study" full of books and a few power tools out in the garage. Oh, and a bow and a fishing pole.
