56. i am using basic game theory and logic that goes back to "the art of war" and beyond
Edited on Thu Apr-01-10 04:47 PM by paulsby
and many others here are ignoring it

it is a common conceit here that people on the other side of the ideological fence are necessarily idiots and/or not clever, with the occasional exception

it's hubris that so often leads to downfall. hubris is a word from the greeks and this sort of arrogance goes back to their days and before

like i said, some people NEVER learn from history. they just engage in a circle jerk of arrogance that makes them FEEL good, instead of thinking critically and giving the opposition credit

underestimating the opposition is one of the grossest errors a general can make in war.

the godfather knew it, sun tsu knew it, but the ignorati here do not

occam's razor works here too.

niggardly is an obscure word. a word that was the subject of a quite celebrated PC speech case.

and i'm supposed to assume that the sign maker WASN'T referencing it, when he used this obscure "SAT" word in his sign? riiiiiiiiight
