Something the brain damaged student said in class today, a propos A Streetcar Named Desire:

"Stanley is Social Man but Mitch is Man Thinking, and women like Social Man better, it's evolutionary. But sometimes I think women look at Man Thinking and wonder, 'What is that man thinking?'"

It's all, of course, evolutionary.

What is that man, Man Thinking, thinking? Something of the same relationship obtains in... in what, I don't know, the world I picture you inhabiting. Aren't you at a university where your girlfriend learns to measure brains, and where they misdiagnose brain damage, and now apparently there is a brain-damaged student taking classes with you or from you.

Well, this needs more baking to actually become a witticism. But I serve it now.
