I liked the movie, sort of. The tv series...meh. You?

the tv series had a crude [low budget] charm, they made maximum use of what resources they had. the movie was polished but somehow anodyne.

There's way too many negative connotations with the word lazy.

To elaborate:

“For instance, on the planet Earth, man had always assumed that he was more intelligent than dolphins because he had achieved so much—the wheel, New York, wars and so on—whilst all the dolphins had ever done was muck about in the water having a good time. But conversely, the dolphins had always believed that they were far more intelligent than man—for precisely the same reasons.”


and the denotation is negative. no one is lazy. lazy is a catch-all for folks we want to write off because they have barriers to being active that we don't understand.

thank you, ab, for your heartfelt concern. i am okay. i just meant for sp to give themselves a break. we all make mistakes. the best yardstick is comparing one's self today against one's self yesterday, not worrying much about how much better or worse others are doing.

I am no longer sure than I am accumulating wisdom with each increment of time. I more often feel i'm going backwards in some ways. my frontal lobes are weaker for sure.
