An Ooda-lollian is somebody you would think came right out of an old
Disney animated movie a-la Baloo in The Jungle
Book circa 1967. These are individuals whose life skills equal exactly two. The first would be the ability to sing the right
words to a song (albeit off key) while smoking a stogie. Their second skill
will always be some delusion they have of being the right mentor at any time, and miraculously convincing some disenfranchised youth the very same. The implications for those he sees as his wards can become dire. For instance, if a folie
à deux were to evolve, the ooda-lollian could impress upon the youth that they are actually able to command wild beasts,
fly from treetop to treetop, or even survive alone in the bush at the age of seven. Unfortunately, this is also how new Ooda-lollians come about. All it takes is one misguided
sloth of an Ooda-lollian convincing anybody who might listen, that "you can do anything you put your mind to", one youth eventually experiencing a psychotic
break, succumbing to the delusion, and renouncing the
reality he was once part of to trigger a devolution the likes of which have never been documented.
Stupid Ooda-lollian thinks hes gonna teach me something about how to handle a wild honey badger.
Shit, all's ya gotta do is
stick your finger in it's little mouth. Oh wait, that was for beaver. My wife taught me that. She said that beavers like when you
stick your finger in their little wet mouths.
