The Importance of Being Intellectual

The difference between the intellectual class warriors and average blokes like me is that I know I’m a genius. Intellectuals just think they are Intellectuals. Which brings me to my Topical Debate of the week: Intellectual Dioramas. The post-Millennium term “Intellectual Diorama” was just invented by me five minutes before I typed it.  And it’s a theory that I’ve been studying since then that I think applies to average smart thinkers like me who are able to put into reality what our brains are thinking when you don’t think they are working but they are. Like when you are on the Centrelink and you do cashies on the side.

The first Intellectual Diorama was invented by Jesus who made a model of his birth in a stable for show and tell: an existential look at the womb. Now, this is my Intellectual Diorama:

This Intellectual Diorama presented itself to my brain during the time of the Exxon Valdez oil spill when I was watching Warrick Capper (a show pony for the Sydney Swans) take a magnificent mark against Carlton. It’s called “Oil Spill”. For those ‘Intellectuals’ who need further explanation of my Intellectual Diorama the tyre represents a bi-product of oil and the swan represents the birds that got covered in it and the wings represent the bird’s legs that Warrick Capper spread to spill his oil inside.
