The Idea Emporium
don't keep it simple stupid, keep it real, go for ideas drawing on facts, thinking, logic, knowledge, experience, analysis;
kiss the kiss keep it stupid system goodbye - keep it smart - no thinking means no learning, no creativity, no brain;
kiss principle? keep it simple kiss? - it's too simple - keep it sizzling, scintillating, savory, sensual, smart

Elsa looking with ideas cooking

"It is a fact readily acknowledged,
that for humans, an idea is much more
powerful than a fact."

An idea is often something quite simple -
the idea, say, that one group is better than another.
Keep it simple stupid - not my idea of a good idea.
So how do we check for good thinking ideas?

Don't Keep It Simple, Stupid -
We're Not All Mental Vegetables,
Mental Couch Potatoes

I heard of the KISS system long ago - keep it simple stupid. That came to mind the other day when I read that complexity was the kiss of death on the web. Dense writing does not get read. Big words turn people off.

Which people? And just what does this mean? Is this the kiss of death for thinking, at least on the web?

I don't believe in unnecessary complexity. I also don't believe in unnecessary simple-mindedness. Flat language. Flat thinking. A flat-line brain.

I've met many people with what could be termed rigor mortis of the brain, thought patterns in deep set ruts. Their thinking does not seem to have gone on a road less traveled in a long time.

Again, I wonder: is the whole multi-tasking GIVE ME A QUICK ANSWER mentality, along with the KISS system, the kiss of death for good thinking?
                         MORE

   

We're born with the capacity to think.
What we learn to do with it,
is what matters.


Do we learn thinking is a pleasure or a chore?
So we roll our eyes at the approach of an idea?
Do we turn off - or on.
Is it stimulation, a challenge, a delight?

The Idea Emporium on
Don't Keep It Simple Stupid

One of my lifelong concerns has been trying to make sense of reality. What is happening? Sometimes one can do this with the kiss system, kiss principle. Sometimes, though, people skip an essential step: thinking. And it becomes keep it stupid simple, keep it simple and stupid. No thinking, no skill, no creativity. Simple minded - as if the life had been taken out of things.

"It is a fact readily acknowledged,
that for humans,
an idea is much more powerful

WHEN I HEARD THAT,
I HAD A EUREKA MOMENT.
YES, I HAD SEEN THAT SO OFTEN.

 

SOME OF US ALREADY LOVE GOOD THINKING.

JUST LIKE EVEN A COUCH POTATO
CAN GET INTO SHAPE!
