Intelligent or Beautiful
Now, she has asked if I would rather be super intelligent or super good-looking.

Well, that's an easy question. Everyone with an ounce of wisdom knows that intelligent is better. Choosing to be good-looking is just foolish vanit---Arrgh!

I can't say it.

Honestly, being super good-looking would be better. I remember reading this somewhere:

Of all maxims let this take the prize,
'Tis better to be fortunate then wise.


That, ironically, is an extremely wise comment. It's saying not just that being wise is useless if you're unlucky, but also that being wise can actually be actively negative, a lesson which was first learned in the Garden of Eden, and has also been encapsulated by the cliche, Ignorance is bliss.

Thank you, for this little foray into shallow thinking. Tomorrow, we will hopefully have a normal blog for you.
