not me, first time i heard about it.
The so-called miraculous powers of a great master are a natural accompaniment to his exact understanding of subtle laws that operate in the inner cosmos of consciousness.

Sounds like a fraternity. Anyways, you're a member? What exactly is it?

Not really a frat it's an honor society: you need a cumulative GPA of 3.2 and a GPA above 3.5 in Psychology classes.  Famous members include B.F. Skinner, Philip Zimbardo, Dr. Phil, and Hugh Hefner.

GPA?  Isn't that the strength of medicine used against genital crabs?  Or a Good Party Acceptance?  Or is it a type of psilocybin mushroom?  Or is it an attempt at crystalizing a person's intellect into a number?  Oh, you got a 3.5, or a 4, good fucking job.  You must be so proud.  That number will last forever, or at least until your brain is unable to function.  Such fun events include death and coma.  Intellect needs to be judged more by numbers rather than content nowadays anyways.

Lol pert, put down the joint! I am pretty proud, sometimes. I kind of just took on those things naturally, like breathing.
Oh, i cant even think about coma! Being in a coma or any other vegetative state is way worse than death!

Um, psychology has been quantifying human characteristics since Galton.

Time is all we really have.

We do not own the earth. We are borrowing it from our children.

Is that what you really think? 

How many ignorant people does it take to destroy a planet?

I binged it. Looks like a good organization. Gives research grants and scholarships. Maintain standards. Cool! It's not Skull & Bones.

More importantly: Why isn't there an S&B for psychology, anyway?
