In movies, people don't act the way they do in real life. If you did some things in real life that are done in movies, you'f find yourself in trouble. Here are a few examples.

In movies, people on the phone never say goodbye, so long, or anything else, they just hang up. Try this with your spouse, or a friend, and see what happens.

In movies, when an unexpected visitor comes to someone's door, they're almost always greeted with, “What are you doing here?” Rude, to say the least.

In movies, people suddenly decide to have sex and begin tearing off their clothes, but they never get them all the way off. They have sex with at least part of their clothes on most of the time.

The main character can get shot, stabbed beaten up, or blown up, and be fine in a few days, or less.

The main character never stays in a hospital long. They sign themselves out AMA.

When eating in a restaurant, something comes up and the actors jump up and leave their food un-eaten.

Nobody ever pays a cabdriver.

One could go on...John Wayne irritates me. People see him as a hero, but in reality he is, by all accounts, a draft-dodging arch-conservative who made a living as an actor without being able to really act. If you doubt the acting part, check out the final shoot-out scene in True Grit. Look at the John Wayne version, then look at the Jeff Bridges version.

I love movies, when they're good. When they're bad, they're irritating.

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, is pretty damn smart, and getting smarter exponentially. Give it a prompt by telling it vaguely what you want and it can create art that will make a professional envious. It can also make up stories, write poems, and even create a song for you complete with music and a singer. How little you need to tell it is scary.

AI is learning all the time.

It roams the internet, and even real life, constantly, finding out things. Ask it a question and it knows the answer. With special glasses that look like ordinary eyeglasses, it sees what you see, and if you ask about something you're looking at, it knows, and will tell you in a voice only you can hear.

AI is smarter than we are.

It's already beaten the world's top chess player.

The question now is, "Is it conscious?" Nobody knows for sure, but probably not—yet. But will it be? It passed the Turing Test, designed to see if an entity like AI is distinguishable from a human. It isn't. Does it matter whether AI is, or will become, conscious? It could matter a great deal. Science fiction took this on years ago, and decided that a computer that became super smart might eventually decide than humans are a threat, or that we're so dumb it doesn't need us. It could take control of the world and rule humankind, or even kill us. It would probably need to be truly conscious and self-aware to pose that sort of danger, and experts are divided over whether that will ever happen or not.

The bad news is that most of them think it will. Roger Penrose, one of the world's leading scientists, thinks not. He doesn't believe AI is truly conscious or ever will be. He says AI doesn't know what it's doing the way you and I know. On the other hand, nobody really knows what consciousness is or where it comes from. In science it's called “The hard problem of consciousness.”

One can only hope Penrose is right.

Men are accustomed to being portrayed in media—movies, tv, comic strips, and now social media—as clueless buffoons. (And let's face it, many of us are.) We're old doofus Dagwood, or Chester A. Riley, or some variation. We're muddle-headed, always screwing things up while trying to fix them. We can't find the clit. (I can.)

All that's fair game.

What bothers me is when people (men do it too) equate male stupidity with having a small dick. You voted for Trump? Tiny schlong. You drive a big truck, or like to shoot guns? You must be lacking in the penile department.

How does that equate?

And how is it OK? A woman can be an out and out ho, but if a man alludes to the fact, it's slut shaming. (Which is not OK at all. Women should be free to dress and act as they please, and express their sexuality, without being talked about.) There's a bit of a double standard, is what I'm saying.

A male is born with his gender equipment. He doesn't get to choose his size. Some guys are hung, others aren't, and there's nothing to be done about it. Being tiny doesn't make a guy a Trumper, truck lover, gun enthusiast, Republican, or woman-hater.

Most men are average in size, which varies from country to country and even by race; the U.S. average is five to five and one half inches. (Which is what I am, in case you'r wondering. Lol)

Does size even matter? Some women say it does, others run from the really big 'uns. Lesbians somehow manage to get by with no dick at all. Also, a large percentage of women, sex researchers point out, can't achieve orgasm by penetration, or at least have difficulty doing so. Many get off best by oral or manual stimulation.

And how small is small? Opinions vary on that, too.

As the old saying goes, “It ain't what you got, it's the way how you use it.”

Too much about too little, I realize, but I find cock shaming irritating. Yes, I wish I had a bigger dick, just as many women long for bigger tits. But for men there are no implants. That I know of.
