I am simply asking if you are aware of paradigm paralysis. I am making no comment on your perception of yourself.


I'm not even going to answer that question.

I don't see how paradigm paralysis plays into this thread either.

Our friend wikipedia points out that in this case, its the inability to be open to a new point of view or something.

Technically, octobertiger is onto something. You'd be unable to keep a tally at all if your beliefs changed... as a belief change would invalidate a list. Hehe.

You know its easy to hit a target that isn't moving. I only give octobertiger 0.25 points. I'm keeping a tally also. I guess that means im with lost561 again. Megalomaniacs unite. Huzzah!

It clicked one day. I have empathy now. It has downsides i didn't expect. It's going somewhat poorly, since people tend to suck at new things. That's how you know it's true.

There are no targets and there is nothing to be hit.

October tiger uses agility! But its not effective. Only pretty/smexy people can use agility.

And LeLetch uses blatant fogging tactics, beacuse he smells conflict and he hates conflict. :wink:

I assure you, there is no conflict, my intentions are good and respectful, and if my posts aren't useful on this thread, then I shall discontinue them immediately.

I doubt that very much. However, if you makes you feel better, please. I assure you, it won't be the 'worst' thing to ever happen.

You can always delete it after you post. Might do you some good.

I was actually trying to help you, as you offer your help to others.

You look on the outside because you dread looking in on the inside. You're happier with surface judgements, because anything deeper is agony for you.

It is you who is pretending.

... lolwut. I mean. Yeah. Letch is peaceful. I just don't know what the topic is about. I can sortof fudge it tho. Lost561 vs Octobertiger: Physical attraction is everything, and later in the argument, almost everything, vs whatever octobertiger has left in the tank that hasn't been tried before. Today, we're trying that big word thing that means lost561 sure is one stubborn guy.

*claps hands* Back on topic. Physical attraction has the added benefit of making a strong/positive first impression. I will add that i saw a study somewhere that women generally decide whether you're friend-zoned in the first 5 minutes. Therefore, smiling, tiny bit of small-talk = everything. And technically smiling is physical #teeth.

Did you miss me lost561? *bats eyes*

Honestly, you see things for what they are. And you don't bait people with stupid arguments. I wish more people shared this kind of attitude.

Octobertiger claims to try and be wanting to help but he/she just enjoys baiting people into arguments with no substance.. Wtf does paradigm paralysis have to do with attraction?

I'm not falling for the trickery.

No, I look on the inside as well. Everybody judges on the outside first though.

Where is the trickery and where is the bait. There is none.

And I really didn't think there was an argument. Please tell me where I have disrespected you. I have nothing but respect for you.

Actually, no, that will do.

Attraction...there are many levels. To say there is one kind of attraction is simplistic. Attraction is, in nature, chemical confusion designed to hijack logical thinking and create relationships which leads to children. However, to say that this will always be an overriding faction in forming relationships is somewhat assuming that we are mere walking chemistry sets.

The trickery is that you're in a paradigm paralysis loop. That only works if your opinion is incorrect and you're unable to accept the new, correct theory.
SOMEBODY has paradigm paralysis, but we haven't established who that is. This circumvents the argument/debate entirely. An ingenoius tack.
Octobertiger is bailing. Read the last few posts. *high fives lost561*

All I have to say is that actions speak.

You say you have respect for me but you didn't display it in the comments you made.

You say you intend to be helpful but your comments are anything but that.

More often than not, people judge you by looks.

As you said yourself LeLetch, back on topic.
