Remember the Law...

[savageseraph]

Cereta's Law is something that would likely keep my stress levels lower and my happiness higher. I have edited a bit to tailor it to me:

"Whenever you start reading a rant/comment/essay/whatever, ask yourself, 'Self, if you read this, will your personal, intellectual, or moral development be any greater than if you spent the same amount of time reading about Viggo and Sean (or Aragorn and Boromir, or Dean and Castiel, or Karl and Vin and Harry, or Nikolai and Kirill, or Mulder and Skinner and Scully, or...)* having sex?' If the answer is 'no,' close the tab." (*insert couple [or moresome] of your choice)

This is probably good advice.

When someone showed it to me, it seemed very sensible.

Hee. That's not a bad idea. Mmmmm.... Porn... ^_~

I'm so, so sorry that I didn't have more time to spend with you at ICFA. I had all the division stuff to do, and Thursday was my most packed day. I hope you'll come back next year!

LOL. Does that apply to student papers? If so, it will make the day ahead much more fun...

I don't see why it can't. Ummm. Except that I'd probably never read 80% of my students' papers then. Ever.

Truer words were never spoken *gg*

*nodnod* They are very wise.

*grin* Now that's a law I can get behind... and something I definitely need to get into my daily thoughts. *sigh* Curiosity is a besetting sin, it is...

Okay. How about if the article/essay/rant makes your head hurt (because you couldn't not read it), immediately apply porn to make it all better?
