Being an Engineer I have always liked numbers and relations. It is very hard to say whether the following law which I am about to describe is numerically accurate. However, you will find it to be quite entertaining. It studies the ratio of gullibility and scumbucketry on our human race civilization. Such contraption I have called my Theory of the Pendehos.
It is very important that I explain what a Pendeho is before I proceed as there is no way to capture its implication unless you realize how bad it can be to be a Pendeho. First of all, the word Pendeho, in English, does not exist! I changed it from Pendejo, in Spanish, whose connotation is quite vulgar and insulting.
If we look in a dictionary, a Pendejo is the name given to strands of hair hanging from the area closest to your anal sphincter, or your ass. In other words, these are the hairs whose entire life is to see, smell, and most likely touch the excremental facts of life as you defecate. It is then easy to see how bad these poor strands of hair are doing and why, if hair were living organisms, every other hair on your body would not only be laughing at the pendejos, but would also love the fact they are not part of that putrefact social class.
Eventually, and through the ages, the word morphed to reflect a foolish kind of personality. Per example, if I were to tell you “I am the president of the United States and you should bow to me”, you would be considered quite Pendejo if you were to believe it all and knee before me. Pendejos take many shapes and styles, but most of them are easily taken over by con artists and fraud experts. So at some point in time, most of us become Pendejos. It is not pretty, of course, but most likely no single human dies at an old age without being taken as a Pendejo.
Hence, it is normal to be and have been a Pendejo every now and then. What is not desirable is to be a Pendejo all your life. Thanks to numbers theory, there has to be some people close to this. On the other hand, it would be awesome to never be a Pendeho, which is most likely impossible. Hence, we must all fall within the limits...
According to my Theory of Pendehos, an absurdly amount of humans on planet Earth, are somehow Pendehos, while a very small amount is not. Unfortunately, this means there is a pretty good chance you are a Pendeho. Worry not, chances are, I am as well! Let see in which group each one of us fits!
Pendeho Pendeho: 90% of Humans
I am willing to say (but not to prove) that 90% of our human race is composed of extremely Pendeho fellows. These Pendehos are so dumb and fools that you can take advantage of them and they will not even see it coming! These are the fellows that would give 10% of their earnings to a religious leader so that this single bastard can buy riches like nice cars and nice houses, allowing him to live like a king, while they can not. (Not to be confused with the religious leaders that actually live poor although the institution’s bank account looks like a nuke about to explode, if there are any like this...)
These Pendehos need to be taken advantage of. Their lives are senseless if nobody fills their heads with crap. They will believe whatever you tell them and they will be happy to know the “truth”. Once they have been told the “truth”, they will defend it with their lives.
They will even take their own lives if necessary as to when needing to get a ride from the nearby passing-by comet. Or if their leader insists taking some specially prepared Kool Aid punch is what the doctor ordered. I should not have to add that these “entities” are perfect soldiers in the event of an alien invasion.
Pendeho Clever 9% of Humans:
Some Pendehos are gullible like hell, but they realize they are being taken advantage of. Although they wish that was not the case, they do nothing to stop it. Per example, a Pendeho Clever could change from one religion sect because their leader was badly utilizing their money. Hence they will opt to go to a different congregation where the religious leader is better suited at hiding how he becomes rich at his followers expense.
Pendeho Clever are still Pendehos which will fall for most tricks. But be careful! If you are trying to get advantage of a Pendeho Clever, there is a good chance they will notice your intentions and go with your competition. They will still be taken advantage of, but only the real artist will get ahold of them.
Clever Pendeho .9% of Humans:
This small percentage is not that Pendeho. Actually, these guys are not even gullible. They have seen the enormous amount of Pendehos in the planet and how they fall for every piece of thief and trickery. They want in!
Clever Pendehos will never be taken advantage of. They recognize the real intentions of con artists and evil doers. However, their lack of enough cleverness resides in the fact that although they know the Pendehos are dying to be conned, the Clever Pendeho will not take advantage of them. They will spend their lives coming up with techniques to gather riches at the Pendeho’s expense, but will resort to morality and ethics to desist on pursuing these plans.
Clever Clever .1% of Humans
These are the bastards of them all. A very small percentage of humans will do whatever it takes to live well at the expense of others! The Clevers know there is just too many Pendehos out there waiting to be swindled with the latest in “technology” and Faith. And the Clevers have the gut to take advantage of this too-valuable opportunity.
Clevers are not ignorant fools. They know that what they do is wrong, immoral and unethical. But they also know Pendeho’s lives tend to grow dull and boring if not taken advantage of. Helping the Pendeho attain happiness is then like a public service, which at the end wins over how unethical it all is.
Understanding The Numbers
Curiously, there is no need to have an equal number of Pendehos and Clevers. In fact, it works quite perfectly to have an abominable amount of Pendehos to the amount of Clevers. One Clever is enough to take advantage from many Pendehos. In fact, too many Clevers would be catastrophic as they would end up fighting over the Pendehos.
