The Five Sides in a Person

1974

(Note: This is a comical review of the species Homo Sapiens, i.e. Human Being. It is intended as a basic guide for all persons who are people watchers.)

‘People watching’ is something most persons do when they are bored or jus’ being nosy.  And yet some persons make it their business to study people and their behavior patterns .

I have studied people, because truthfully — I am naturally nosy.

Okay, so something’s haven’t changed in the last four decade about me.

That doesn’t mean my nose is unusually large, but it does mean that I want to make other peoples business, my business. In relative theory it is simple, it’s jus’ the words are hard to understand.

Like everywhere, something has to begin somewhere. And it is a generally well known fact that everything (or something) has to start at the bottom.

Now whether you believe ‘Man’ came from the sea or from the like­ness of God, that does not matter. What matters is the basic element and fact that ‘Man’ is here!

Do not concern yourself with “here”, because actually “here” is “nowhere”, but just some­ where in a wide unknown galaxy.

Adam, as we all know, was the first man and Eve the first woman. They were workers — trying to survive in the garden of Eden.

That means both of those people were basically “Classites.” But doing genealogical studies of persons in the past is much harder, because we cannot fully comprehend their world, we can only imagine.

People of today are different from them in style. We speak differently and understand more.

But we still have classes of people. Not jus’ Black, White, Yellow, or Red, although before the turn of the century colors did have something to do with it. It seems much simpler, all color-coded, but it was ruled unfair for very obvious reasons.

Now, we rational people have a different way of doing things.

Obviously, I was talking out my ass.

First there is the “Burnout.” This person generally has money, more money than most people know, but they don’t care about it, or actually about anything.

Because they can afford it, they usually use drugs. A “Burnout” is a class five of our species.

A number four species is a “Greaser.” This is someone who, like the burnout doesn’t care for anything.

And they dress like they don’t care. One main reason they dress like they do is for simple fact they can’t afford to.

Now in a society like ours it is a privilege to be an athlete. This type of Homo Sapiens is called a “Jock.”

A “Jock” is usually combined with a “Classite” type of specie. Most “Jocks” and “Class­ites” are intermingled, both work and are superior in physique and mental attitude. Classites are generally workers, Both blue collar and white collar.

OOPS! Color coded again!

As in all societies there has to be a top rung to the proverb­ial ladder of the Human Being, and that is the “Socialite.” This is the most outwardly happy and successful type, but in reality the most dangerous.

They associate with the rich (also type one) and keep to themselves. Sometimes a few will get together and appear in public view of the other four species.

While they seem to be on a higher plateau or level of thinking, they aren’t. They are generally a rather nervous breed.

But still they are no different than most other people, yet they have that certain color about them. And that color is green. Money.

That means power. Therefore they are to be adjudged dangerous.

Now that light has been thrown on the subject, it is time to say everyone has these basic traits, and some more than others.

Everyone, or just about everyone has used drugs. (Aspirin, anyone?)

And have dressed according how how they felt. Everyone has done something mentally and/or physically inclining to the sports world, whether that thing is crossword puzzles or the decathlon.

They have also worked, and had more money and have known persons with more money than they…thus making them equally richer or poor than someone.

So everyone is alike — even though may think your better than someone else, jus’ remember everyone is the same, give or take a little bit from one or the other.
