PSEUDO PROFANITY SERVED ON THE PLATTER ALONG WITH IMMORALITY AND A DASH OF CYNICISM [:P]

Gross Generalization (pun very much intended!)

The world can broadly be classified into three kinds of people, first we have the talented ones, those people who are genuinely gifted with a skill/s. These kinds of people generally produce crazy amounts of work and are unassuming; they keep to themselves and don’t really care so much about what others think. They know exactly where they stand and it isn’t a big deal. Next we have those people who are not really talented but can identify and appreciate good work, these are the people who are considered to be learned and hence assign value to the work done by the first kind of people which eventually defines the worth of that work in society. Finally we have those people who are neither of the above, they are blissfully unaware of intellect and judge things by rudimentary impulses, if it looks good, its good, if its difficult to understand, it must be good, if its entertaining, its pretty darn good.
Now according to me, the second kind of people are the most dangerous because they pretend to understand something that comes naturally to the first kind of people and they believe that they are superior to the third kind of people who in one sense are nothing but plain honest.
The first kind of people sometimes evolve into the second kind of people, which is understandable but when they evolve from being the third kind of people then it’s slightly dodgy. The second kind of people can also become the third kind of people which just means they’ve uncomplicated themselves. But the best is when the third kind of people discover in themselves an element of the first kind of people.
Naturally when the first kind of people becomes the third kind of people, they’re still the first kind. Occasionally the second kind of people becomes the like first kind of people at doing what they do.
Personally the second kind of people just end up criticizing the first and third kinds of people and screw everyone’s head and make them believe conjured up judgments. Sadly most of the world is the second kind of people and I’m wondering if crossed over from the third kind to the second or there’s actually some quality of the first kind in me.

I know it’s a weird retarded generalization but come to think of it, you can essentially classify every single person in one of the three. In fact, everyone is everything, the ratio of 1:2:3 determines where you’re classified.

Standing on the precarious balance
Impatient,
Restless,
As the needle oscillated
For what seemed like a lifetime
My palms getting moist,
I felt the heat mounting at the back of my neck
With it the sudden yearning to step off and never know
Seconds densified into minutes
It never impeded.

I didn’t know extremism
And now I’m never to know
If I should’ve longed a little longer
