So maybe you're one too, I'm kind of a nerd,

but one of the things I get kind of nerdy about

is kind of an amateur anthropologist who knows very little.

But I am interested in history and people and culture and all that sort of stuff.

And I keep running into the same thing.

You pick the era and you pick the part of the planet.

There are fashionable people who are wrong about significant stuff and they're very

stubborn about it.

But I've just gotten to the point where it's almost laughable.

It's like, the fashionable people are almost never right.

And I'm not referring to anything in modern society per se, but I think it's true.

They're very sure of themselves and they're very wrong in any given culture.

It's just over and over.

So let's say this happens to given culture. It's just over and over.

So let's say this happens to you. You're 22 and for your birthday your dad gives you a new BMW.

Do you, a, say wow wow thank you or do you be be decide you really wanted the

Jaguar and so as a temper tantrum you drive your BMW directly into the nearest river.

Huh.

Because someone took option B.
