Description
Once upon a time in medical quackery, there was a practice called phrenology. It claimed to divine intricate parts of people's personalities - by studying the bumps on their heads.Remember, this comes from the same country that once advocated leeches, blood-letting and poultices made with horse urine and whatnot to cure everything from the common cold to dementia.
Thankfully we've learned since then...right?

It never did any harm to the wearer, just made them feel perhaps a bit uncomfortable and maybe not a bit silly.

Lol. I would totally buy one of those and wear it to the mall or school or the theme park or something. Just to see what people would say. And if they asked what it was, I'd be all "What helmet? *looks up* Holy crap! Where the fuck did that come from!?" Lolz

actually leeches are still used for medical prpocedures...

Well, yes, that is true; I referred more to the "leeches cure all" mindset that prevailed around the 18th/19th centuries.

Can your avatar really not be displayed or is that something you did deliberately?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I did it on purpose because I wasn't sure what to make my avatar then just decided to make one that wouldn't look like one, and then ended up deciding it wouldn't be displayed until I got a good idea and made one but then decided I really liked it so I redid it to make it more realistic, (the original one had the letters drawn with the straight line tool in paint and only fooled one person)

It's a cool idea; reminds me of those enigmatic "do not read thsi" signs, or the book entitled "This Book Needs No Title".

Thank you,
Unfortunately I have never seen those signs, or the book.
It sounds like a lemony snicket thing though...

But it's not an unfortunate event

Lol! I only read like one of the books and don't remember it that well... I don't like reading much. I'm fine with writing (Even if I'm not great at it) but no reading...

I got the book in a set with the movie, but I never started into it.
