While this humble blog is designed mostly to make sense (not really) of pop culture because pop culture is odd, it is also semi-important to look at odd in its abstractness. That is, we need to look at the veritable oddness that exists in the very fabric of human existence. How deep that oddness goes is interesting to thnk about. Mainly because the idea that oddness exists all the way down to the genetic level. Maybe it goes all the way back to evolution itself. Come on. Oddness couldn't jump appear circa 1921. There had to be the errant odd javaman of the prehistoric era.

When we do ponder on odd as an abstract, we fall into one of two categories: you are normal, they are odd or you are odd, how you wish you were normal. The first may be true. The second is categorically illogical to the extreme.

I'm sorry, but odd people have a tendency to really beat themselves up. They have this messed up idea that they are oddballs and can't fit in to normal society. Because of this, they feel guilty at being odd. They will beat themselves up alot.

Hey, amigo, take a darn old look around you. In case you haven't noticed, there are tons of folks out there who are SERIOUSLY screwed up. You went and loathed yourself so much, you have be-knighted these screw ups with normalcy with no purpose other than re-soldifying your own self loathing image of yourself.
