Common sense is not longer common but a very rare precious commodity in our society. There was a time not so long ago; even in the last forty years when people exhibited common sense on a daily basis rather than once in a lifetime. Shocking I know but quite true I assure you. What happened to wisdom & common sense coexisting with harmony? Now people think that reading books by those without true wisdom, lacking in morals, void of common sense somehow gives you wisdom. Wrong! You simply are well read in liberalism or viewpoints but nothing more. When truth is distorted, wrong is right & people are coddled when they make incredibly stupid decisions then we see that common sense has left the building.
More & more people exit college almost brain dead. It's astounding to see the astronomical bills people incur going to college, after being indoctrinated rather than educated. Beyond that point, these same people were not taught common sense by their parents or grandparents either. Where did we as humans get so ignorant? Animals know that if you poke a gator it might eat you, well more than likely it will eat you. These same animals know that if they do not watch over their young, then there is a huge probability that their young will not survive to adulthood.
I actually think that people with common sense, should be able to get a PHD in common sense. Common sense unlike book sense is a fleeting commodity in the world today. Common Sense is what parents used to instill in their children. Nowadays not so much. God gave us brains people, so please use them. I suppose the zombies have eaten all of the functioning brains. Off the top of my head no pun intended I can think of a few examples like maybe you should look both ways when you cross a street, do not text, operate a laptop or call people when you are drunk much less drive. How about watch your children & hold their hands, keep them in your sight & put their needs before your own? Don't marry the same man or woman multiple times because it's just dumb! the dryer can not shrink your clothes 2 sizes simply put away the Doritos & ice cream. Don't provoke a dog, especially one you do not know or there's a good chance you will get bitten & the same goes for playing with snakes. Do not play around lagoons in Florida because gators habitat in most lakes, lagoons & ponds in Florida, it's just a fact. Do not pour lighter fluid on the grill after you have placed your food on the grill, this is really not wise. Common sense people! Do not spend more than you make in income. If you leave a teenager to their own devices with free time, then do not be surprised if they get involved in gangs or get pregnant or get someone pregnant, use drugs or alcohol thereby doing even more stupid things, because they are teenagers.
Common sense prevents many human mishaps. Do not walk while texting as you could walk into a manhole, in front of a bus or into a pissed off guy who has just found out through a text that his best friend is seeing his wife. The point is common sense can save us humans a lot of trouble in the future. Now where can I go to get that PHD in Common Sense?
