Communication

You know, much of the conflict around the world arise from a lack of clear communication. Who was it who came up with a model of how ideas get perverted in transmission? He must have had too much time on his hands be a genius. The steps go:

1. Sender forms idea
2. Idea is coded into an expletive about someone's parents a message output
3. Output is picked up by receiver
4. Receiver decodes message
5. Receiver translates decoded message into idea
6. Blood feud begins

or some sh*t like that. Should've paid attention in school.

Anyway, the original idea gets changed four times when the receiver eventually forms his own ideas about the idea. No wonder we all behave like deers without eyes.

Think I'll brush up English speech & grammar (yeah, all that SVO crap) and then maybe get a TESOL or CELTA certification before unleashing all my corrupting powers on unsuspecting fools helping poor kids learn English.
