Thinking sporadically, as I often do, I reached a decision: it's time to reset. Reset what? Why, everything! At least, everything in terms of opinions, statements, beliefs, etc. As of this blog, I formally denounce everything I have ever said. Any opinion held prior is up for re-evaluation and review. I may or may not hold them true anymore, and I expect none to be held to myself either.
At this point I feel that I have reached a point of diminishing returns on rational thought, intelligence and decision making that it's about time I set a point from which I put greater stock and value in each position I take.
However, I can at this point establish that I remain a teetotalling vegetarian atheist gaming programmer. After that, well, I guess we'll see.
Oh, and the following games still suck: Prince of Persia: Warrior Within, Eternal Darkness, Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass. Thank you.

I match 3 of your 5 core criteria (I'm not a teetotaller or a programmer).
Are you sure you hit the correct button? Maybe you hit the Overcharge button, it is a common error:

Kind of like levelling up a character .
Once your character has like Level 90 intelligence it's pretty hard to gain a friggin level, but there might be easier skills/abilities you can gain faster with little effort. In your case, you basically hit Level 99 Intelligence and there is no way to get much smarter without hacking, or "grinding" (studying stuff) for hundreds of hours .
Wow, I just thought of an awesome new motivational system that is the true way to achieve perfection. Assess yourself as an RPG character and give yourself a level for every possible thing from traditional things like Strength (fitness), etc to more specialized things like "typing" and "speaking in public". You can omit things you are Level 0 at that you have no interest in learning, like Level 0 Banjo Skills, but there are probably hundreds of other things to list. Then just go down the list and work trying to level up all your weakest skills, and keep track in a spreadsheet or something XD.
I Can't Believe it's Not Dawkins?
^Then it should be broken from you hitting it all the time.
