Morning logic...

Ever notice how many people there are out there that are just never wrong? Seems like it's prevalence is on the rise. This attitude goes hand-in-hand with such wonders as frivolous lawsuits, class warfare, lack of personal responsibility, etc.

Funny how no one ever stops to consider this:
  1. People who refuse to learn are idiots.
  2. People learn primarily from their mistakes.
  3. People are imperfect, thus they make mistakes.
  4. Thus, it's human nature to learn as you go.
However, for the people that can never do wrong:
  1. They must know it all already.
  2. Thus, they can't learn anything new.
  3. Thus, they are cretins and become more cretinous as time goes on.
Prison's full of innocent people, right? What about the presidential campaign?

One other thought: If people can do no wrong (and thus they know it all), why does it piss people off so much when you point our that they know it all?

WTF kind of BS is that?

The best way to handle mistakes is to:
  1. Be on the the lookout for them.
  2. When they occur, admit them, learn from them, and move on.
  3. Use what you learned to prevent the same mistake from happening again.
If you don't do this, the mistake will just repeat itself. Is that what you want?
