A screenshot of a 17 May 2013 of a WGN News Chicago sports anchor Pat Tomasulo interviewing a woman named Lisa who wearing a shirt from the famous Chicago biker clothing and tattoo store “The Alley” with the logo: [4] which is what we might call "street physics" or "real" econophysics and or financial physics, depending—namely that “job” correlates to “work” output, the value of which is gauged by money paid for services, which, according to the colloquial equation shown, has a sexual equivalence value. |
“Whoever does not work, does not make love.”
“The seriousness of the male’s lack of economic providing is illustrated by the report of a woman in her late twenties who participated in a study of marital separation: ‘My husband lost a series of jobs and was very depressed. He just couldn’t keep a job. He had a job for a couple of years, and that ended, and then he had another for a year, and that ended, and then he had another. And then he was really depressed, and he saw a social worker, but it didn’t seem to be helping. And he was sleeping a lot. And I think one day I just came to the end of the line with his sleeping. I think I went out one night and came back and he hadn’t even been able to get out of bed to put the children to bed. I left them watching television and there they were when I came back. The next day I asked him to leave. Very forcefully.’”
“This girl is 100% a coal burner. You can tell by the sweatshirt.”
“No bees, no honey ; no work, no money.”

Limitless (2011) Guess Who's Coming to Dinner? (1967) The 2011 film Limitless, gives both ends of the spectrum of the "No Job = No Sex" Alley equation, in a rather time-accelerated perspective. The "breakup scene" from the 2011 film Limitless, shown above left, where she says shes sick of being the bank for him (top) and gives him back his apartment keys (bottom) which seems to well-capture the "no job = no sex" equation.
Noted street philosophy (street physics) quote from the 1983 film Scarface, about money, power, and woman. |
Money → Power → Woman
The opposite end of the spectrum, is the 1967 film Guess Who's Coming to Dinner, wherein the lead male is specifically scripted to be an occupationally perfect male in ever way possible, racial difference aside, and wherein the daughter, of a leading American family, tells her mother: [6]"I fell in love with him in 20 minutes." and when queried about their possible premarital sexual activity replies: "We haven't. He wouldn't", which seems to well-capture what might be called the inverse Alley equation: Got JOB = Got Sex. |
"He's an important guy. Just the main points: Born Los Angeles, 1930... graduated maxima *** laude John Hopkins, '54... assistant professor, Yale Medical School, '55... three years professor, London School of Tropical Medicine... three years assistant director, World Health Organization... two textbooks and a list of monographs and medical society honors... as long as your arm."
"Joey, I want to ask you something. How deeply are you and John in... No, I have no right to ask. How deeply involved? Do you mean, have we been to bed together? I don't mind you asking me that. We haven't. He wouldn't. I don't think he was in doubt about my feelings, but he wouldn't."
“The [acts of a human] individual [occurs] in a manner to that in which energy is transferred from gas molecule to gas molecule by collisions. Through transfer of goods or services (or welfare), every family has someone with an annual income. One might argue that through many transactions money tends to get randomly distributed but, through some unclear constraints which are due to training, motivation, risk-taking, inheritance, intimidation etc., some people obtain [more money].”

“For a finite sized flow system to persist in time (live or survive), its configuration must evolve (change in time) in such a way that it provides easier and easier access to the currents that flow through it.”
“Everything—from biological life to inanimate systems—generates shape and structure and evolves in a sequence of ever-improving designs in order to facilitate.”
