The problem is centuries and millennia are but fragments of time compared to the entire life of the universe...so it's kind of like the ant analogy of a colony in San Fran looking for one in Paris, but only looking from…
He writes like he's trying to evoke JFK, when in reality he evokes Richard Nixon.
More like a padawan mind trick...pretty transparent, if you ask me. You're right, "brothers and sisters" had me rolling my eyes as soon as I read it. Not to mention all those articles saying he sold his shares of Zynga…
You'd be surprised by how passionate waiters can be about their jobs. None of these claims are universal, and not everyone can be passionate about their jobs. I agree that society needs garbage men (and garbage men…
Why apply free market tactics to a service that is almost certainly necessary for everyone in their lifetimes? If anything, I feel like that would make things more expensive because this is a resource that people can…
Serious question - can you negotiate your hospital bill like insurance companies can?
I did the "attractive women" thing (took a hit for the team, for science) and that was absolutely true. The odd thing was, the first random girl I clicked on was this girl I kinda had a crush on in college (all my…
And we get to enjoy the pleasant tunes of Leona Lewis.
It's funny that you say all of this, because I think it's completely true. I've never tried mushrooms, LSD, or any sort of hallucinogen beyond MDMA. MDMA alone changed my life, but what followed was how I utilized that…
I was just thinking about this recently. Our generation is so fucked. Tuition rising, fewer jobs, recession, social security not going to be there when we get older, the first true tax increase for every American…
Oh they've promoted it. They shut down all pictures on OkCupid for the day to promote the new app. People are PISSED. Hah.
How do you know that that's what special blend is? I haven't been able to find anything conclusive from OkC regarding that.
What? Are you generalizing to an entire gender?
You'd be surprised. In the course of 4 years at university, I somehow never once crossed paths with my roommate, despite the fact that I knew all of her friends and our school is incredibly small.
Okay but obviously we know that's not a real picture, but instead a hyperbole of a photo. Still proves your point, I suppose. It's fun meeting people in real life then finding them on Facebook and seeing their complete…
Yeah. Attractive people are fairly consistently approached or hit on or treated differently or what have you every day in real life. Remove the approach anxiety that the other 90% who DON'T approach these people but…
I believe this is a very, very wide net. They send it out to the upper 50% is what I've heard.
That actually exists already. It's called LikeBright, and it hooks up to your Facebook, pulls mutual friends, and has you vet them for each person, basically asking "would you see these two people dating?" And if you…
Great point. As someone who has been studying psychology for a while now, you're completely right that people tend to diverge into one of two paths. On the one side you have people like Skinner who become completely…
