Not unlike the sweet siren song of that next Parker...  |
Dean, why we do things is a subconscious urge that has no mode of communication, hence it is very hard to explain. Parker Mania like any other compulsive disorder is basically getting hooked on dopamine which is the feel good hormone that we naturally produce and is the basis of addictive behavior.
Ask a millennial why they are addicted to facebook, snapchat, smart phones in general and very few can explain why they can't live without it. Every time they hear a ding that someone liked their post or sends them a text, they get shot of dopamine.
Essentially shooting and collecting old sxs's and more particular Parker's can in worse case scenario become an obsessive compulsive disorder that we can get so ingrained and dependent and part of our lives it takes complete control of us.
I think the link below is a perfect example and Pete's reaction to hearing the Siren song is a perfect example. Instead of the women doing laundry picture those fine ladies sitting on a rock with an oil cloth polishing an old Parker.
