What were they thinking!?

A. When they wrote the following :

Just washing it aside
all of the helplessness inside
pretending I don't feel this place
Its so much simpler than change...

These words make you despise them sometimes and wonder abt, at others

Aa. When they thought of the fact that a pair of protagonists, one of each sex, running around trees professing their love in extremely exaggerated, imaginative, poetic phrases could actually mean entertainment and make money...and they were right...AND they upgraded it by throwing in some more hapless, colourful humans cos they thought 'oh the hero and heroine must be feeling lonely and embarrassed'.... (don't even get me started about their dancing)

E. When they thought of extremely irrational, unrelated and embarrassing ads like "bingo chips", "har kutte ka naam tommy nahi hota..." etc etc (we seriously lack flexibility in laws relating to use of guillotines...)

Ee. When they thought two computers should be allowed to exchange "dayta" (most americans, notably one boda genius Vint Cerf say it that way) ..... Voila! Internet!

U. When they came up with the notes and chords and the structure of the song 'Nothing Else Matters'...I've recently become obsessed about this song...Quite intricate the way they improvise on this song in concerts...Or is it just me...

Oo. When they made movies like SAW, wrote books like FountainHead and obtained patents on ideas like 'bar code reader to charge your prepaid account'!!!!!

The answers to these 'What were they thinking!?'s shall remain obscure...The capacity of the human mind...immeasurable probably...
