Reading Habits

Every generation must itself read the books that it must, for itself. Riding on the parents' own readings is not an option, and not the way.

BLAST MUSIC: PSY Got It All From His Daddy, And Not Just the Genes

So PSY got it all from his DADDY, and not just the genes! Perhaps yes. Perhaps no. His mama surely had something to do with it, too -- as subsequent studies will likely affirm.

But the (probably) big and -- we didn't see it coming -- daddy-of-em-all story right now is what a recent study suggests: that daddies may be passing on to their hapless children's biology not just their genetic make-up but also their existential experiences (their not-necessarily-intentional 'post-natal' biological adaptations to ontological stresses and strains, if you like) -- fears, joys, (food, drink and other) habits. These are offspring whose right to imitate their all-powerful dads (and all-loving moms), on their own terms, is thus much reduced.

The researchers are clearly onto something here, though. PSY seems eager to concur, here in this insanely funny and wonderfully choreographed M/V of his. The dance routines, with surprising twists and turns, are superbly naughty and hilarious. Ageing daddies, with those cat-like, "Gang Nam Style" moves, and perhaps accelerated hair-loss, are portrayed in eighth-life-like light.
