Abrasive Dress
Maybe I should dress more abrasively. Then I would ward off people who judge others by their appearance. Except then I would be as bad as they are, judging an entire person through one aspect of who they are. Also, I would attract a certain type of people, which I wouldn't want for the same reason as before.
Understanding Your Writing
When you write a novel you should do a draft from the perspective of every character so you can fully understand the story.
Going Along
Plot about a paranoid schizo and partner who is going along with the paranoia. As the story is told, the reader does not realize the paranoia is unjustified.

Partly Dreaming
What if there are more devisions between being fully awake and asleep. What if some of your perceptions are dreaming and reacting to dream stimulus while you think they are awake.
Exaggerated Rap
I give rhyming poetry more leanience with meaning because I can accept exaggeration or such when working with a limited vocabulary.
Emotional Mapping
Tell a story entirely through characters expressing emotions at segmented time periods. eg.
Jon was happy, Jill was happy. Jack was sad.
Jack was sad. Jill was sad. Jon was happy.
Jon was sad Jill was sad Jack was sad
Jack was happy Jill was happy Jack was happy
To be expanded on
Possibly rearrange in different combinations and give them names according to emotional morels that they represent.

How to: Decide
People will make more conscientious decisions if they make them beforehand. But better informed ones the longer they wait.
My Soul to Give
For lent this year I'm giving up my soul, "Just like Jesus did!" So if I seem like a soulless bastard the next couple of weeks, its just because my parents didn't believe in marriage "at the time"
Straighten Thoughts
Learning is not linear, things I learned in the past become fodder for new thoughts.
New Arch
The person at first seemed to be behaving erratically, but after enough interactions I had begun to discover the pattern in his beliefs and actions. After extended interaction he will become a stereotype in his own right. Soon enough I will compare others to his more strongly expressed qualities.
No Texting Allowed
A device that senses when a text within a certain area is being sent or received. It would send out an signal to publicly shame the event.
Above the Game
Book about genius millionaire becoming billionaire by playing social science on the political system.
Forest for the Trees
A visual metaphor that I would like to see in a movie is:
A man with an axe cutting down a couple of trees every day until the entire forest is gone.
A man with an axe cutting down a couple of trees every day until the entire forest is gone.
Artistic Unknown
When you are attempting experimentation you should only change one variable. This is true not only in science but also in art. I learned early on that when creative ideas are combined they make the overall unrecognizable to a point that it lost its appeal. You need to approach a recognizable pattern so that people will know that it is a proven good and not react with the evolutionary fear of the unknown.
This is why to be a successful artistic experimenter you need to be well accomplished in the non experimental aspects to an almost greater extent.

Performing
The only time I'm not thinking and my mind is perfectly cleared is when I am performing. All of my attention is directed at perfection in execution.
Same Dream
One of my favorite parts about attending large sporting events is when I think,
"Look at all the people dreaming the same dreams", and then watching that dream become realized or destroyed for the thousands around you.

Lectures on TV
TV channel that playes stanford online classes, each class is played 4 times a week with a new episode every week. This would be much more likely to be used than Youtube because deciding between tv shows on is a easier decision than any computer based interaction. Its the same reason people watch TV movies when they own the movies.
Feeling Parkinson's
Do you choose the thoughts that you have? I think the answer is yes, but my reason is unsubstantiated.
Would schizophrenia then be when thought choice starts to become less voluntary. Like Parkinson's but instead of being unable to control your motor you can't control your sensory?
