Fun Mental Games

The purpose? Why, to sharpen your awareness of how anything can be anything! (That actually does make sense, fuggers.)

1) The Sex Change Game -- Think that sexy goddess of a woman is hot? Wanna jump her? Gonna take your little fantasy home with you and have your nasty way with her? Weeeeell, just remember, we all come from the same place, we just dress ourselves up as men or women. SO! Do it, watch that sexy girl for another moment before you pop your woody, and see if you can't imagine what sort of a boy/man she would make. ORRR, take that weasily guy walking down the street -- Sex Change! What sort of woman would he make?

It has been my PERSONAL observation that the hottest members of the species -- men or women -- are those who remain attractive whether you cast them as male or female.

Dig that for a minute.

2) The We Are All Dead Game -- Stop pretending we're all so ALIVE. Boo! We are ghosts! So when you look at people, don't look at all the living parts, look at how their flesh just hangs on their skeleton. Imagine what their skull would look like, gesticulating in such strange ways...

I haven't been experimenting with this one for as long (I prefer to see us all as alive, since we are), BUT, it seems to me that a lot of our behaiviors would seem really outrageous to ourselves if we were dead . . . just imagine these idiosyncracies that people make with their postures etc! We would be shocked at our skeletons to see them do it!

Whereas, I would bet a horse, for example, really wouldn't be too surprised to watch its skeleton meandering around, galloping, or doing horse things. Like Mr. Ed, he'd be like, "Yuuuup, that's me alright."

Maybe people just do people things, but that sure makes us a funny lot!!! Party on, Caballeros!
