My Intended Major: Psychoceramics

[trjohnson1]

<p>As I self-study AP Psychology, I come upon an interesting passage. My textbook says this:</p>

<p>

@Psychology

Psychologists teach in medical schools, law schools, theological seminaries, and they work in hospitals, factories, and corporate offices. They engage in interdisciplinary studies, such as psychohistory (the psychological analysis of historical characters), psycholinguistics (the study of language and thinking), and psychoceramics (the study of crackpots).*</p>

<p>*Confession time: I wrote the last part of this sentence on April Fools’ Day.

</p>

<p>David G. Myers has improved my overall quality of life outside of academics and qualified my assertion that the most important part of a textbook is the author’s wit.</p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>HAH I think I had this textbook as well, it was wonderful!
If I remember correctly it contains a quote:
“God is love.
Love is blind.
Ray Charles is blind.
Ray Charles is God?”
haha, just a good example of the humor in that text :]</p>

<p>I love it!!</p>

[Whatsup]

<p>That’s so odd you bring that up, I just read that line 2 days ago in that textbook for my summer school psych class.</p>

<p>Myers is unbelievably witty.</p>

@Psychology

The average person has one testicle and one ovary.

<p>For a moment, I was baffled. But I realized, the statistic is in fact, true.</p>

<p>(Keep in mind the section this quote is from and different ways to report data, and how data can be falsified and exaggerated by innocent, assumptuous bystanders.)</p>
