the definition of "id" in the Webster Dictionary, click link HERE.
TEXT:Main Entry: 1 id
Pronunciation: 'id
Function: noun
Etymology: New Latin, from Latin, it
: the one of the three divisions of the psyche in psychoanalytic theory that is completely unconscious and is the source of psychic energy derived from instinctual needs and drives -- compare EGO.
Unconscious ego and id are closely synonymous.
P.S. "MNR" invitied me to try again so - AMEN!
I know the etymology for idiot does not relate to id, but they seem related in that they are "without a sense of time; completely illogical; infantile in its emotional development; will not take 'no' for an answer." The only difference I see primarily is "primarily sexual." So, JPC seem to rely heavily on his id.brendar buhl said:More specifically the id is responsible for our basic drives such as food, sex and aggressive impulses, and demands immediate satisfaction. It is amoral and egocentric, ruled by the pleasure-pain principle; it is without a sense of time; completely illogical; primarily sexual; infantile in its emotional development; will not take 'no' for an answer.
I don't think it was a compliment.
I still dont think he understands what it means, but what can you expect from someone who doesn't think they need to support their children and that no children in this country go with out anything as a result of deadbeats?brendar buhl said:More specifically the id is responsible for our basic drives such as food, sex and aggressive impulses, and demands immediate satisfaction.

I agree that it was not given as a "compliment" but as an alternative to being evil -brendar buhl said:More specifically the id is responsible for our basic drives ...
