"Baby, We're From the Deep End of the Gene Pool"
It's amazing what those late night after-sex conversations can turn into. Especially when it's Dan and I having them. You add my craziness to his wit and it can turn out pretty bizarre.
Like the night we decided on the three facets of humanity: morality, intelligence, and beauty.
We decided that everybody has two of these three facets. And the way they are divided up is best described using the analogy of a swimming pool:
At the shallow end you have the beautiful, moral people. There's really not a lot too them, they're just kind of wandering aimlessly through life, looking pretty and doing good. They bask in the sunshine and work on their tans.
Behind them are the intelligent, moral people. They're ugly and boring and, while definitely deeper than the pretty air-heads, they still lack the ambition and foresite that morality bars. They just kind of swim in circles in the middle of the pool.
Then, at the deep end, are us beautiful, intelligent, immoral people. You kind of have to watch your back around us. We swim in the dark abyss at the far end of the gene pool with the krakens and other monstrocities.
It all makes sense to me.
