Like attracts like?

While on the subject of theories, I seem to have some innate power by which I make other humans with theory professing capabilities gravitate towards me. Maybe because I usually make a sincere attempt at single-pointed attention while listening to other people talk. Whatever be the reason, theories are great to listen to especially if they border on the outrageous.

In recent times I have managed to draw to myself many new funny theorists who have harangued about many things under the sun. As always I try and listen and soak in the ridiculousness before reacting. It is so much fun. The more ridiculous the theory is, the greater is my joy. One such theory was the connection between A-strap slippers and social work. Apparently my theorist pal found that women who wear A-strap slippers tend to favor social work or at the least feel for the cause. There are plenty of such hard-to-prove-so-hard-to-refute theories that I have heard. I will list them out sometime when I really need a laugh.
