Define "Insane" or "Insanity"

Post Reply New Topic

Without getting into the details of my day... and i've been having A DAY!! !

I can't help but feel a little crazy or that i at least have to concede my perception of things is not normal...

And upon reading this other thread yesterday about psychopathy and AS... I wonder:

What IS the definition of insanity or being insane.... Cause I sure feel like it today.

What are your thoughts?

Insane is where you lose material gain without any tangible benefits willingly.

Insanity is doing the same dumb-ass thing over and over and expecting a different result!

Insanity is doing what you believe is correct, despite the fact that most of your cabinet and constituents disagree.

There was a contestant on our version of "The Price is Right (America,) who thought that playing the game "Five Price Tags" for a car was insane. In that case, you had to choose which of five prices was the correct one for the car.

Bob Barker agreed with her, but I don't think she knew what she was talking about.

That's like the guru who asked a follower, "do you know what is wisdom?" He answered "no, I don't." The guru responded, "very wise answer."

If you can ask what is insanity, then yer not.

Don't fret.

Just so you all know, I have no idea whether that lady won the car on "The Price is Right" or not.

One day does not count. Sometimes the fish are biting and I have no idea why. Several days in a row I look for causes, after a week I forget it was ever any differant. Insane people get locked up, I am still running free.

Sometimes, like when playing with clay, images start forming, that is called art.

Anything less than running naked down the street screaming, and not watching the traffic, is normal.

Stop reading those threads, we are much too impressionable. All of it is in all of us, reading about one thing brings it up for review, not good for aspies. If you must, chase it with a Hoppy the Fuzzy Bunny story.

I am glad to hear your perceptions of things are not normal, I pity those people. Just direct it at something meaningful to you.

It is not a question of sane or insane, it is a question of getting away with it. 60 years and still on the loose.

So, in other words, you shouldn't judge insanity by comparing it to what the lady on "The Price is Right" thought it was.

By the way, I think her name was Patricia.

What is "insanity"?

I have have NO f*cking idea.

So, in other words, could our price be wrong?
