IdleGlory | He had to be a genius or nothing, and since he couldn’t be creative he turned to bohemianism, eccentricity, social versatility, conquests. – Allen Ginsberg

• In biology, shy generally means “tends to avoid human beings”
• In ecology, crypsis is the ability of an organism to avoid observation or detection by other organisms
• In evolutionary biology, mimicry is the similarity of one species to another which protects one or both
• A mimic is any living species that has evolved to resemble another successful species
• Imitation is an advanced behavior whereby an individual observes and replicates another’s

Just a bullet point listing of the strange and wending ways of the mental thought processor, correlating a roundabout task of mental hyperlinks between fashion, ‘snob behavioral expectations and evolutionary biology. This is a mental footnote that will be elaborated more in the future someday, I hope.
