I hear Watership Down is an uplifting novel that will in no way scar you for life.

Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH. Always really loved this.

I believe Over The Hedge was a dreamworks film

OK, two more that come to mind:
The Wind and The Willows, Kenneth Grahame, 1908.
Also Rudyard Kipling's Jungle Books.
Early examples, but very good ones.

Read the Jungle Book; Wind and the Willows made me inexorably bored. I've added the NIHM book and Watership Down to why list tho.

Yup. Cocaine is legal for medical use. When I had surgery for a deviated septum I saw a bottle on the table of meds clearly labeled “cocaine” as they wheeled me into the surgery room. Sure enough, I woke from surgery as high as a kite! They soaked gauze in the cocaine solution & packed my nose with it. It’s a powerful astringent and one of the best pain relievers known.
I felt like superman and a super genius all rolled into one. I asked for a pad of paper & started writing down what I thought of as “complex differential equations” just because I could. After I came down (which was NOT fun) I looked at the paper. Even the basic math was dead wrong! I might have felt like a genius but that stuff is stupidity in a bottle! Yeah I can see how ppl get hooked on that crap but no thanks. That shit’s a receipe for disaster.

No, the combo of feeling immortal, feeling like you’re a genius and being stupid that’s the receipe for disaster. “Hey, I have. GREAT idea! Banks have lots of money. I like money. Let’s go break into the bank and get lots of money! Cops? Security? Ha! I’m bulletproof!”

Ah well you should. That’s exactly the phrasing that went through my head at the time. What I actually wrote was utter nonsense.

Dunning-Kruger effect dictates that incompetent people have extremely elevated ideas of their competence. Since you were very incompetent, but believed yourself to be very competent, that was basically Dunning-Kruger to the extreme.

Huh. I haven’t heard of that. I’ll look that up! Thanks!

Edited it to make it clear that’s what I thought I was writing at the time, not that I think that’s what I actually wrote!
