intellectual properties

am i human, or am i dancer?

this is the best opening paragraph of a blog post i’ve read in a really long time:

“Lately I’ve been spending way too much time thinking about ‘my life’ and ‘the direction my life is going’ and whether I need to ‘reevaluate the direction my life is going’ when the only question I should be asking is ‘am I human or am I dancer?’ because that’s the kind of question where no matter what the answer is it’s always yes.”

it’s awesome in its own right, but especially awesome when that blog post then quickly devolves into a discussion about the inanity of facebook quizzes:

“Anyway, the random Facebook quiz is one of humanity’s great levelers in that anyone who does one automatically looks like a moron, no matter how neat their ‘About Me’ section is.”

which is why i never post the results of any of the ones i take to my profile
