brain crush sex dream charlie kilo

a brain crush is when you find yourself uncontrollably obsessed with another person's brain. you find yourself wanting, nay needing to know what said person thinks about everything, thus texting/emailing/telepathically sending them constant questions.

one can also form a brain crush on a celebrity, whether dead or alive. for example i have longstanding brain crushes on bill hicks (dead) and martin millar (alive), among MANY others.

brain crushes can often lead to strong friendships, full of intense discussions about all manner of topics.

however they can also lead to apprehended violence orders.

this is a very fine line, people. A VERY FINE LINE.

a brain crush is different from a sex crush - in which you desperately want to make the hot monkey love with the target of the crush - but can very easily lead to one if the crusher (he/she who has the crush) is not careful.

it is also different from a friend crush (when one is jonesing to be friends with a particular individual), a style crush (the desire to dress like another human), a talent crush (obvious), and so on.

i know it's complicated but try and keep up will you. if it will help, get yourself a pen and a piece of paper and draw yourself a diagram. or, even better, a mind map. i LOVE mind maps.

now sometimes a crushee (he/she upon whom the crush lies) may think a brain crush is in fact a sex/love crush, based on the obsessive, crazy stalker ways of their crusher.

this can lead to awkwardness. or worse (unspecified).

so recently i seem to have developed sex crushes on two of my current brain crushes.

i've had sex dreams about both of them and i woke feeling strange. and not just in the pants region.

i is all conflicted.

i don't want to have sex crushes on my brain crushes.

i prefer my crushes separated and compartmentalised. like in that movie where the guy builds a tiny wall on his plate around his peas so they don't merge with his mashed potatoes but somehow a few rogue peas always manage to escape their pea prison and seek refuge in the mashed potatoes thus creating an anarchic, mushy vegetable commune. i think it was in 'toys'. then again i could have just made all that up.

DO YOU SEE WHAT THIS MIXED UP CRUSH CONFUSION IS DOING TO MY BRAIN?

i used to be a smart girl. perhaps even the type of girl upon whom somebody, somewhere would have a brain crush (probably not though).

but now i'm just a crushed up mess.

help.

please.

I was going to say that!
Although I'm all for intercrushial relationships...they increase the complexity and obsessiveness factor =)

When you draw mind maps do you use brightly coloured textas?

I love mind maps drawn in bright coloured textas.

I have this Caroma template left over from when I was doing Interior Decorating. It has shapes for the bathroom - basins, toilets and things. But, most importantly, it has different sized circles and ovals and other assorted shapes PERFECT FOR DRAWING MIND MAPS.

Yes actually, I am a nerd and a pedant. My mind maps are neat and orderly.

Anyway, that wasn't the point. Ummm ... what was the point? Oh, that's right, I also have a brain crush on you. But that wasn't the point either.

The point I wanted to badger was, how can you NOT have sex crushes on your brain crushes? A brain crush IS a sex crush because brains are sexy. See Safran, J and Bradfield Moody, Doctor James.

To me, they're one and the same.

*pauses and reflects*

*asks self: "Yeah, but Ms Cynic, would you have sex with that politics lecturer you had that was like the world's biggest brain, ever?"

"No, but I did consider it once."

"What about with Noam Chomsky?"

"Oh, that's different. 'Cause he's really old."

"But, you would have sex with that brunette guy that comes into The Bar From Hell and he doesn't seem very brainy which is confirmed by the fact that he drinks there?"

"Well, that's just a sex crush, then."

"Ah hah. Then there is a difference between a sex crush and a brain crush."

"No, because there are people I would sleep with who are stupid. But there is not a brain crushee that I wouldn't sleep with (barring Noam Chomsky)."

Thanks for letting me use your comments box to think out loud.

This post was very engaging.

i'm suprised you like bill hicks when he was such an anti-semite.

"hitler had the right idea, he was just an underachiever."

of course, anon, if you take that quote out of context, removing both the INTENSE sarcasm and the rest of the speech, it would appear that hicks was indeed a raging antisemite.

however on closer inspection, and the knowledge that hicks said this while trying to get rid of a heckler at a gig, one sees he was arguing a (perhaps offensive yet not in reality anti-semitic)different point:

"Hitler had the right idea, he was just an underachiever! Kill 'em all, Adolf, all of 'em! Jew, Mexican, American, white, kill 'em all! Start over, the experiment didn't work!".

i'm happy to be proven wrong here if anyone wants to argue the point further and show me the error of my ways.

fair enough, la nadine.

i guess i just find his kind of humour, ultimately offensive, and easy. i think it takes an especially angry person to like bill hicks is all.

the contact lense joke is however, hilarious.

i wouldn't call myself "especially angry", anon.

perhaps 'mild to medium angry' would better suit my general outlook.

the other night my friend 'g'
but thanks for the input. i like to be argued with from time to time.

should we hug now or something?
