the entire social media culture surely helps explode overconfidence issues.
smickles: i
think
that
there is more factors involved in ugly idiot women
mircea_popescu: It really is quite amazing how very unattractive women in America act like
they are hot shit.
There is no humility and no gentle nature, just loud and brash behavior
that makes you wonder if
they’re self-deluded or “faking it until
they make it,” even
though we all know
the only
thing
they’re making is
the end of a pint of Haagen Daaz.
They even have
the audacity
to repeatedly say “I’m hot” without a hint of irony. Why
smickles: mircea_popescu: i've seen several
that ask people
trivia and also ask
them
to rate
their confidence level in
their own answer as greater or less
than 90% confidence. most people, on most questions rated > 90% confidence on
the answer gave
the incorrect answer
mircea_popescu: One study found
that 93% of us
think we're above-average drivers. Another discovered
that 25% of high school seniors rated
themselves among
the
top 1% in
their ability
to get along well with others.
smickles: personally, i
think
the odds are much worse
than 1 in 10

the
time
to mirror it in readable engrish

mircea_popescu: not a
trickling stream of lukewarm cream, but a solid frozen chunk."
mircea_popescu: Where you get it in bits as hard as
tin in
the land where spunk is spunk-
mircea_popescu: back
to
the land of
the all-night stand-where
the nights are six months long.
mircea_popescu: "I’m going back
to
the frozen north, where
the pricks are hard and strong:
copumpkin: AND I AM HERE

they owe left in cash
mircea_popescu: anyway

that keep going "he owed 500k so he ran off with 500k" really make me chuckle.
rdponticelli: If pirate lost
that amount of money in other ponzi, he's even dumbest
than I would have expected...
