I think this has got to be one of the most unusual and confusing period in my life....I mean, there it is, a beautiful untouched hammer and the only thing I can think of doing with it was to hit myself in the head.

Did it change my perspective on life? no. It just caused excrutiating pain that lasted for 4 days, not to mention the large knot it left behind. But it left me thinking that maybe it was a big mistake to do something that many people would percieve as "stupid" (but I also view a 42-year old pothead that sits on a couch for 2 days straight, lighting up "treez" and watched "Fantasia" over and over again because it is merely "trippy" as being stupid and so are two high school kids who cut their hair to look like Flea from the Red Hot Chilli Peppers because they had nothing else better to do as being "dumb")

Would I do it again, probably, but this time I would I will look back at this wierd experience and most likely will try another side of my head to minimize the pain and the possible brain damage it might cause by doing something so "stupid".

Has anyone, at least with some sense of intelligence, ever been there a phase like this? How did you handle it?

Pro tip: You should hit yourself harder next time.

This is good advice.

Or you can ask yourself: "What would Donnie do?"

Just wait for the original hammer/head experience again and this time get it right.

I have a good friend, now a Ph.D. economist, who I once watched (from my window, before we met) walk into a tree trunk more than 5 times.

He wanted to know what it's like for a blind person to walk into something, but every time he tried, he anticipated the contact and flinched a little, so he kept trying.

Wow you see a hammer and the first thing your human intelligence tells you: bash yourself on the head!

Please do the world a favor and refrain from breeding.

All your other obvious problems aside, you really are a dreadful writer.

Hope the head's alright.
