    In his book Everything is F!cked, Mark Manson talks about the frontal lobotomy, developed to chill out patients with extreme anxiety or depression. At first widely accepted, it eventually became apparent that the procedure created a whole new set of problems. The patients became, as Manson put it, "goddamn potatoes".

    Continuing in Manson's words: The Soviet Union, of all places, was the first country to outlaw the lobotomy. The Soviets declared the procedure "contrary to human principles" and claimed that it "turned an insane person into an idiot." This was sort of a wakeup call in the rest of the world, because let's face it, when Joseph Stalin is lecturing you about ethics and human decency, you know you've fucked up.

    Success is measured by your discipline and inner peace. – Mike Ditka
