What makes you a "nutter"?


--------------------
"Don't believe everything you think". -Anom.

" All that lives was born to die"-Anom.

With much wisdom comes much sorrow,
The more knowledge, the more grief.
Ecclesiastes circa 350 BC

Because I believe people are basically good and that true love exists.

i had to look this up


nuts (adj.) "crazy," 1846, from earlier be nutts upon "be very fond of" (1785), which is possibly from nuts (n., pl.) "any source of pleasure" (1610s), from nut (q.v.). Sense influenced probably by metaphoric application of nut to "head" (1846, e.g. to be off one's nut "be insane," 1860).

Connection with the slang "testicle" sense has tended to nudge it toward taboo. "On the N.B.C. network, it is forbidden to call any character a nut; you have to call him a screwball." ["New Yorker," Dec. 23, 1950] "Please eliminate the expression 'nuts to you' from Egbert's speech." [Request from the Hays Office regarding the script of "The Bank Dick," 1940] This desire for avoidance accounts for the euphemism nerts (c.1925).

How do you know but ev’ry Bird that cuts the airy way,
Is an immense world of delight, clos’d by your senses five?

In that case, they would just admit it themselves.

well the only honest conclusion I could come to is that we are all nutter's in this world.  Maybe some more than others but not by much.

Well, everyone with a say in anything could be considered a nutter. Maybe not the people who don't impose their personal beliefs on others.

They might still be nuts.  Just unto themselves.  I'm just as nuts when alone as when interacting.
