So, I think I have ADHD. There. I said it. Can I go into a psychiatrist and get some sweet performance enhancing drugs?
This is still America, isn't it?
Wouldn't the Founding Fathers want me to be, like, way smarter than I actually am?
I read this article in the New Yorker a while back, and I have to say, it kinda makes me want to pop some pills. I mean, not Rush Limbaugh-level pill-popping, not Anna Nicole or MJ or anything. Just a couple of little magic caplets, so I could actually sit down and concentrate on something. Anything.
I've got a lot of projects on my plate and it's hard to get any of them done when you can't sit still for three minutes. Or stop checking your email. Or watching Gossip Girl. Or, um... okay, yeah, I've started watching, "Greek" too.
Anyway, I don't think "neuroenhancement" is a bad thing. They're trying to use this drug for guys in the Army. That makes it okay. They're trying to build crazy robotic exoskeletons for the Army too. Which I also want.
If that's wrong, I don't want to be right.
