If you can't make a single sincere counter-argument to your own belief, your stance is driven by emotion rather than logic
  • Because it's not reasonable, the person is. A person can be reasonable without holding all reasonable beliefs. I'm willing to bet you have misconceptions about the concept of simultaneity that would not hold up if you learned the math behind special relativity, but it doesn't make you unreasonable because you haven't learned the niche weird stuff that happens near the speed of light. just assume that things happen in a certain order because that's what it seems like and don't worry that they can happen in a different order for someone in a different inertial frame of reference.

  • Yes, you've got it. And it is hand waving bullshit that I absolutely do not agree with, but if you can't incorporate the fact that it's a real thing that a reasonable person can believe then you are under-thinking it.

  • If something did exist outside of nature, there's no reason you should be able to know about it. Rules of logic wouldn't necessarily apply and it is not something you could reliably apply statistics to.

    Get the ketchup.
  • It tastes a little like butterscotch, but it also definitely tastes like the instant Mac and cheese that comes from the powder. Like it starts out tasting only like butterscotch, but the cheese slowly builds up in your mouth until that's all you can taste.

    Everywhere i've worked, there's always some guy that looks vaguely like Thom York. What weird work quirks have you experienced across jobs?
  • My last 3 jobs the company got bought out while I was working there. I've really only had one (non-internship) job where the company didn't get bought and that was a door to door sales job for one summer in high school

  • "A Silent Voice" (anime movie) is my go-to when I want to feel profound emotions, even if it's crying about the fact that all my friends are hundreds of miles away or dead now and I apparently forgot how to make new ones.

    My arm was getting tired, so I decided to over-engineer my coffee grinder. It already runs on a standard screwdriver bit hex, so I was actually pretty surprised that nobody else beat me to it. !
