Mom was wrong?

Davids Stuff Add comments

To think that all those years and years of my Mom telling me that I needed to clean my room were doing nothing but killing my inter geiuness? I am one of theo messy geeks. Anyone who has been in my basement knows it. I do however know where the majority of the items in that mess is located. Now I reason to tell my lovely and talented wife to stop telling me to clean up that mess…..it’s just me being smart as ussual.

Link to a story about messy people and how smart they are….

“Most of us are messy, and most of us are messy at a level that works very, very well for us,” he said in an interview. “In most cases, if we got a lot neater and more organized, we would be less effective.”

I love this:

Hunting through messy piles has its value, Freedman says.

“You discover things that, if you had filed things or containerized them or purged them, you never would have seen them again. It becomes a natural reminder system,” he said.

    Stuffing things in your closet surely didn’t make you a genius. Hehehe!

    Well you may be right there, but it just proves that my mess was not because of being lazy more from being smart and such….
