I was wrong. Stan is not training the twins. In fact, he seems to be pretending not to notice the strange happenings in Gravity Falls, even though he has obviously been there to long and has far too many secrets to be oblivious. By far too many, I mean three;

1.)The many-three that we know of-secret rooms in the Mystery Shack.

2.)The glasses he is hiding from the twins, possibly everyone.

3.)He is obviously the author of the journals, based on facts that I have already demonstrated.

However, as I have stated many, many times, he is definitely the author. So something must have happened between when he wrote the Third Book and now. I had thought that Stan had stopped writing to leave room for the reader to record their own notes, but now I think he simply quit on recording them. I think it is because he didn't want Gideon to obtain the dangerous information, although it could just as well be someone else he wanted to keep away from. All we know for sure is that they can be dangerous if they get the journal and they are male. Stan most likely chose Dipper to go into the woods on the first episode because either he thinks the journal would be safe if Dipper happened to find it or that he actually did just chose Dipper at random. I'm going with the first option. Also, I am curious about the glasses that Stan is obviously hiding from Dipper and Mabel. He most likely misplaced them in the third secret room. And I just realized something that may be a coincidence. That we know of, there are three secret rooms in the Mystery Shack. And that we know of, there are three journals.
