For the messy people in the audience

"...messy closet owners are probably better parents and nicer and cooler than their tidier counterparts. It’s a movement that confirms what you have known, deep down, all along: really neat people are not avatars of the good life; they are humorless and inflexible prigs, and have way too much time on their hands."

Saying Yes to Mess - New York Times

Hooray for intelligent people affirming my current behavioral paradigm!

Also, the gem: "Superficial is the new intimate."

Comments:
3 cheers for messy people.
 
At first, I worried, that as the 'organized' housemate, I would find that this article painted me poorly.

However, the closing comment, "everything looks neater in piles," is pretty much my motto, so I suppose my version of neat doesn't really work for true neat freaks. I can deal with shit everywhere, as long as it's in piles.
