If you point out to the professed vegetarian that he’s eating a hamster, he’ll look you straight in the eye, chewing rodent skull, and tell you he has no idea what you’re talking about.

The scary part is that he’s being completely honest in his own mind, and could probably pass a lie-detector test.

All dots. No connections.

Case in point: About 30 years ago, Alan King was complaining about profanity in comedy. He then stated that a new comedian, by the name of Robin Williams, had recently done an HBO Special, where he used the "F" word about 50 f---ing times. Got a good laugh, but some people were upset with Alan's phraseology. Not many, but some. It’s just impossible to get eneryone laugh at the same joke.
