Human beings seek the longed-for happiness throughout the course of their fleeting lives. But this is a mistake of the mind, it is an existential condition that only inhabits our deceptive conscience. A kind of happiness, however, can be fully achieved. It is the happiness given off by stupidity, a constant stoned state that releases endorphins at will.
It is not a deep and ingrained condition, it is rather a sort of brain anesthesia that allows us to hear as little as possible; but it is still the most decent result that can be achieved. Many Italians are stupid and happy but if you are still among those who are not, here is a practical handbook that will help you in the transformation.
Here is the list of things to do to become stupid and happy
# 1. Read as little as possible
Completely eliminating any kind of reading is the first thing to do if you want to get stupid. But as with any recipe some things are forbidden and others are not. Absolutely abolish essays, novels, popularization works, encyclopedias, theatrical texts, poems, collections of poems and anything that does not have at least a couple of showgirls in bikinis on the cover. National newspapers are permitted but in moderation, while tabloid magazines and most internet sites are highly recommended.
#2. Always blame others
As the wise Homer said: “It is easy to blame ourselves, but it is even easier to blame others.” In fact, blaming others becomes a considerable accelerator in the race towards stupid joy. So whenever you have a problem, always look for a culprit, perhaps the weakest, or the one that historically fits your dilemma, such as immigrants or your employer depending on the situation. In this way you will empty yourself of any sense of responsibility and you can stay on the sofa to enjoy life without feeling guilty.
# 3. You lie to yourself
Lying to oneself instead allows us to eliminate those sides of us that would suggest change. Change costs effort, pain, time and serenity. Instead, we must try to turn off that inner voice and continue to navigate our false beliefs.
# 4. You blindly believe everything you are told by the mass media
Another fundamental step is to try never to deepen anything. To do this, we must believe everything that is briefly told to us by TV, newspapers and all the classic information channels. Alternatively, you can position yourself on the opposite side and uncritically adhere to the conspiracy fringes. The key thing is to take sides . Because what man seeks is not the truth, but to impose his own truth on others.
# 5. Vote who brings out the worst side of you
Politics is an aspect that cannot be ignored. But who to vote to be happier? Simply those who bring out the worst side of you, those who leverage your anger, the simplistic view of things and easy solutions. Fortunately, in Italy the problem does not even arise, because all the offers that are there correspond exactly to this profile.
# 6. complain
Complaining is the best ally of stupidity. It is essential behavior that encompasses many aspects within itself, including blaming others, being immobile, being deprived of responsibility, and self-pity. Ideal for getting some relief from frustration.
# 7. Let what you have is the yardstick of your satisfaction
Achieving happiness through the understanding that we are just an expression of energy that the collective consciousness experiences individually is complicated for some. It is much more intuitive to be happy by changing cars every two years . So your whole sense of satisfaction has to depend on what you own, and you have to set your life on these foundations: the fastest car, the biggest house, the hottest girl and so on. Goals may seem difficult to achieve, but the thing is completely irrelevant: just setting them as your primary goals will make you stupid enough to be happier than a person with a minimum of sensitivity.
# 8. Become selfish
A healthy selfishness is not enough to reach a state of stupid happiness, a sick selfishness is necessary, a selfishness that does not consider any other person but you. Putting yourself at the center of the universe and trying to satisfy only your own needs is the least tiring path to reach the model of stupid serenity that is constantly proposed to us as an ideal to aim for.
# 9. Make your mood dependent on the approval of others
The need for recognition must be brought to its highest expression. Any aspect of life must depend on the judgment of others, for this reason it is necessary to try to create an image of oneself that is as close as possible to the values universally considered winning: beauty, wealth, youth, popularity. Everything else doesn’t matter shit: only if other people recognize you as happy can you be truly happy. What you will feel over time you will not even be able to feel it, and the doors of happiness will open.
# 10. Convert to a comfortable religion
The theme of religion must not be taken lightly, because although the existence of the God Money has been demonstrated, this often leaves unresolved moral gaps. It is therefore necessary to find religions that channel the sense of inadequacy produced by a life devoted to stupidity into something positive. A simple religion, which allows us to stand still, not to move, which puts the afterlife first when it comes to giving and earthly life first when it comes to receiving. A young, cheeky, social religion like us. It is not difficult to find.
Once all these points have been put into practice, existential anguish will tend to disappear from your life and you will be able to see time pass in front of you, together with the events of existence and important things. It will be a peaceful and painless existence, like that of plants. With the difference that plants are useful for something.
