"Who 'fashionized' body piercing," the researcher asked. "Body piercing was fashionized by different groups, organizations, and individuals," the sociologist responded, "however, I suspect that the masochists were the first to promote it to make it easier to identify the more daring members of society."

The encapsulation of the fact that individuals who know more, make better decisions, and live better.
Know more know better is a great idiom. I tell it to my students to encourage them to study. Know more live better is an extension of that idea.

Some people use a deceptive tonality to reinforce a lie they are telling. For example, they will answer, “No,” but in a tonality that says it would be unthinkable for that person to have said or done what they are saying they did not say or do, and they may even intimidate the listener so he will feel stupid if he ever doubted or dared to question their statement.

Typing one's thoughts as one thinks them. When thought typing, the writer sends his thoughts from his soul and brain via his nerves to his fingertips which merge with the keyboard's keys which are connected to the computer and display the words he thinks and types on the screen.
'Thought typing’ transcribes one's thoughts to a computer screen. 'Thought writing' transcribes one's thoughts onto a piece of paper.
'Thought writing' and 'thought typing' are not the same as writing. Writing asks the brain to articulate a thought or emotion one feels and writes down the clause or sentences the brain has articulated.

Yesterday, he put his hand out to shake mine, forefeeling a sweaty hand of a sick man I didn't shake his hand. Who knows where someone's hands have been and what they were doing before that individual sticks it out for you to shake. Though sometimes it is great to shake someone's hand, in general, handshaking is a drain—a waste of time, energy, and emotion. It can also be a type of invasion of space and privacy. The ability to feel how something may feel like is also called pre-feel, or fore-feel. In the preceding sentence, I spelled the latter without a hyphen.
