We need to set up shop as reverse phrenologists.   People tell us how they want to act, and we arrange bumps on their head until their skull is the right shape.

Beats the fuck out of working, right?

It occurred to me that this is why we pay cops and judges and prison guards.

Then I thought, why not get people to PAY for this?  There's one born every minute, but for the first time ever, we can cure them.  Might loose a few of the ones with thinner craniums, but that's a risk I'm willing to take for a shinier America.

Have your lawyer draft an airtight release form, and we're all set.

:lulz:  Excellent.  Is there a treatment to make me enjoy blunt force trauma?

It didn't make me enjoy it, but it made me not care.

We'll just call it religion.

Oh my god. This is the most brilliant thing I have heard all day.

Granted, so far my day has consisted of:

1.) Rolling out of bed
2.) Sitting in this chair
3.) Clicking on this thread

But, to be honest, I don't think anything is going to beat this.
Formerly something else...

I'll settle for head poundings, thanks.

Retrophrenology is what Pratchett called it in one of the earlier Discworld books.
Be what you would seem to be - or, if you'd like it put more simply - never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.
