| Short term memory (if there is such a thing) is composed of 5 units, plus or minus two. Hence, to make a funny, lists have to be 4 or less, preferably 3. Any more would allow previous information to be displaced, taking away from the humor. |

Five Minute Conversationalist
I think I give a great first impression... However, as moments progress past the initial meeting time, things tend to taper off. I like to think of myself as a natural log function (with the x-axis being time, and the y-axis being impression). Just in case you don't know what I'm talking about, ln x has a rapid increase about until it crosses the x axis then it just kinda plateaus with minimal increase there after. My "window of wow" tends to be the first five minutes of conversation; anything there after yields no drastic return. I bring this up because I met this dude Justin at the Grove, and I was charming and cordial, chiming into conversation and adding new topics when necessary. However, five minutes elapsed and I had to excuse myself because my charm had run out. This tends to be the case with any new person I meet, unless I'm drunk, then I can just talk about bullshit for hours. Alcohol = "Self-Perceived Charm"
Some people have the inverse e^x style, where you don't take much notice at the beginning, then WOAH!.. where did you come from mister smiley boy? I've known a couple people like that, mainly two, and I usually tend to fall hopelessly in love with them. It was like that with Eric. When I first met him the mental operations performing in my head were pretty chill. But after a while, it was like this earth shattering crescendo of neuro-synaptic activity. And in maintaining true form to the e^x function, my impression of him throughout time only escalates upward in an exponential fashion.
Other people whom I have known, one individual in particular who I gracefully decline to name, display a simple y = -x pattern. This is just a left to right declining line in 1 to 1 fashion (move right one, move down one). The impression was high at one point, but displays continuous degradation throughout time.
So simple math shows ln e^x =x and e^ln x =x... what does this prove? fuck if I know.
