This seems like a good book.
While reading the book back then I was instantly drawn to one character in particular: Rabbit. Oh, Rabbit. The chapter in particular is “Bisy Backson” (Chapter 6 I think). In it, Rabbit goes looking for Christopher Robin, but comes to find this note:
Bisy Backson means “Busy, Back Soon” by the way (misspellings of course are common in Milne’s books). Well, the note send Rabbit off on a wild goose chase, cornering his friends into telling him where Christopher Robin went. No one seems to be able to give Rabbit the answer he wants, and he darts off to keep looking for it. The chapter also tells other stories (like “Old Man and his Shadow” and “The Teahouse vs The Hamburger Stand“) to further illustrate the Bisy Backsons and why it is not always good to feel IMPORTANT and BUSY.
A “Bisy Backson” cannot seem to stay in one place for a short time. They are constantly on the move, trying to get ahead. They rush here and there, with little time to enjoy the simple things. All that hustle and bustle can indeed cause some unneeded stress in one’s life.
It’s a valuable lesson that I keep contemplating but yet keep forgetting. That I am, indeed, a “Bisy Backson”. Being BUSY, I believe, makes me feel IMPORTANT. And being IMPORTANT makes me HAPPY.
Recently, there have been many days that I sit back and reflect on where my life is going. I’m always in a hurry. Going here, going there, but going WHERE? And for WHAT? And WHY?
The day seems over before it gets start. You get the kids to school, slog to work and back home. Then dinner, bedtime, and like Groundhog Day, it starts again the next morning. Weekends fly by between mundane laundry, an activity or two, and errands before Monday sneaks up on ya like a little brat.
I feel like in an effort to save time, I end up wasting more of it.

I don’t think Azn would make for a reliable arbitrator of intelligence. As a doctor myself IRL I would estimate her IQ to be higher than Gameboy’s, but still not high enough to go to the bathroom without assistance.

Like I said, democracy is a universal concept. Mencius was a democrat who believed in equality and Confucian societies value education and hard work which would contribute to economic growth.

Oh jeezus christ. You don't understand the purpose of Confucianism? It was to create a society where the peasants bow and scrap before the landowners and the elite.
I dare say Mao is more responsible for China's recent economic miracle. His Cultural Revolution completely destroyed old negative ways of thinking and the bourgeoisie.

Nonsense. Compare ancient Greek philosophers to an emperor-kissing windbag like Confucius.
How the hell are Asian democracies growing faster? None of them have anything like European and North American democracies to begin with. Most of them got their parliaments from Britain. And of course it was Marx whose ideas reformed China.

Chinese may have been the first to bound the paper together, but they had no Shakespeare, Milton or Dante to write on it. Duh derp. What good is a book if all you have to read is Confucius? East Asians are a people bereft of European creativity.
Chinese invented gunpowder but they were too ignorant to make guns.
Child, there was no democracy in Asia before Europeans brought it there.
