Amused by simple things?

[harrietjansson]

Sometimes it is in the simplest things that we find joy and beauty.

which poet said that?

I don't attach any serious meaning to spaz. It could be Yiddish for all l know. It doesn't reference any particular group on planet earth so l feel safe in using it. Unless there are a separate spaz group of people that l don't know about.

It actually has a meaning. It's a derogatory term for someone with spastic cerebral palsy, and is therefore ableist.

Edit: Sorry, I just saw that two other posters basically said the same thing.

I just wrote that, but I wouldn't be surprised if there's been millions of others who have independently come up with the same

I'm easily amused and distracted by things. Some people find it annoying, which is also annoying because I think someone being easily amused is harmless and nothing to get upset over. lol

I was as a child. In today's society, with the proliferation of social media etc, I'm not so much anymore. I seem to have lost that ability.

As a child I was somewhat notorious for it. I clearly remember one incident where my mother put me in time out for some infraction, and when "time out" was over I refused to leave the "time out" corner because I had become so engrossed in tracing shapes in the wooden paneling that I sat there for a long time afterwards.

You're not an idiot at all. You just didn't know, and now you do.

Kittens are little, and I just watched a video of a very energetic kitten pouncing and playing with all of her toys. But I think a lot of people like that.

 

[bluelily]

Yes. Little mental games I think, distractions perhaps. One I have done occasionally all my life is look at things with one eye only, and then the other only and still be amazed at the shift in view.

One thing I enjoy is to put on polarized sunglasses and then turn my head sideways back and forth and watch how everything changes.

It didn't offend me but it could reach the eyes of someone very vindictive
