I've had partners say I was unbelievable, unlike your statement it wasn't a compliment.

Cats were for and some of the trash talking was next level. After one game this guy puts on cologne. The other brother says that works better with soap and water.

It's kinda like being the Goat, it isn't a self annointed appellation. What you are describing is a scholar, academian or scholastic. However you are a mistress of rhetoric,logic and grammar which form the basis of a classic Greek education otherwise known as the Trivium. You aim so high that your comparison isn't likely to exist either. To use the vernacular. Yoos a Bad B!+¢π. I mean that with the utmost respect and affection. I had four years of Latin and three of Spanish in high school. Yet I had to look up this word. To be certain what you are saying. 100% You're my kind of crazy. I am an outsider amongst other outsiders. Astrologers think I am heretical. And my Tai Chi master used to call Martian. I also picked up the nickname Mr Neptune. A fellow Tarot card reader called me Pluto because I am really out there. Welcome to the club. Also you are an unconscious Magician. In my life time I have only met 3.

You resemble this quote Hey Geni ass Carl Jung never said that, I have said it before you need an editor to check your work. A one minute search showed your incompetence. https://www.all-about-psychology.com/thinking-is-difficult.html Why don't you look up what he said instead of believing internet memes. BTW I won't be reading your lame excuse.

We had the Winter Solstice so now the light of the world is coming back. Jesus was dead for three days and then he was risen. The light came back to the world. So on the winter sostice the sun appears to be stationary and then it starts moving. Which signals that the days are getting longer.

He is in a class by himself. As they used to say on Fat Albert and the Cosby kids.

Thanks for posting @Mel Hopkins. I rarely use gaggle. I prefer Startpage.com they don't sell your information plus it's a metasearch engine that returns unique pages. And while it may be powered by gaggle it doesn't empower gaggle.

Hahaha.Thanks Twin

@Mel Hopkins I am not trying to speak for you,but wouldn't you take that Black Man to stay?

I got two messages from the universe from passing cars. The first was just relax. The second had the number 71 on its licensed plate. 71 in my time marker system means understand the communication. @Troy @Mel Hopkins @Cynique

I found out that the Blacks weren't allowed to eat vanilla ice cream except on the Fourth of July. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2014/jul/04/black-people-vanilla-ice-cream-jim-crow-independence-day

@Cynique I have a saying I want to care less without becoming careless.

One of my goals is to be so open minded that I don't have a position that I feel the need to defend. One of my goals is to be so open minded that I don't have a position that I feel the need to defend.

I put a premium on critical thinking as at the end of the process that starts with curiosity and creativity. Imagination. Is more important than knowledge. Albert Einstein

I make a distinction among the following a person that is not open minded, intolerant, or non conceptual. It is the last two that I find difficult. I have had conversations with racists and felt heard. I have also had interactions with with people who consider themselves open minded. So it's not important what category a person is or group the belong to it's about their ability to listen to a different perspective without arrogance . In the last two years I have been looking very deeply at communication. And situations where it works and those that it doesn't. I now have a meta conversation to see if we can have a conversation. I have noticed the following interactions or reactions: receptivity; combative; resistance; revelatory. So a conversation cam start one way and end in any of the other ways. However I decide early on how much effort I want to expend.

I feel that curiosity and creativity are crucial. However without critical thinking how can you revaluate your options?

@ProfD what did you think of the article?

Open-mindedness involves being receptive to a wide variety of ideas, arguments, and information. Being open-minded is generally considered a positive quality. It is a necessary ability in order to think critically and rationally. This doesn’t mean that being open-minded is necessarily easy. Being open to new ideas and experiences can sometimes lead to confusion and cognitive dissonance when we learn new things that conflict with existing beliefs. Being able to change and revise outdated or incorrect beliefs is an important part of learning and personal growth. https://www.verywellmind.com/be-more-open-minded-4690673

The Dunning-Kruger effect is a type of cognitive bias in which people believe that they are smarter and more capable than they really are. Essentially, low ability people do not possess the skills needed to recognize their own incompetence. The combination of poor self-awareness and low cognitive ability leads them to overestimate their own capabilities.1 The term lends a scientific name and explanation to a problem that many people immediately recognize—that fools are blind to their own foolishness. As Charles Darwin wrote in his book The Descent of Man, "Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge." https://www.verywellmind.com/an-overview-of-the-dunning-kruger-effect-4160740 Incompetent people, the researchers found, are not only poor performers, they are also unable to accurately assess and recognize the quality of their own work. This is the reason why students who earn failing scores on exams sometimes feel that they deserved a much higher score. They overestimate their own knowledge and ability and are incapable of seeing the poorness of their performance. Low performers are unable to recognize the skill and competence levels of other people, which is part of the reason why they consistently view themselves as better, more capable, and more knowledgeable than others. "In many cases, incompetence does not leave people disoriented, perplexed, or cautious," wrote David Dunning in an article for Pacific Standard. "Instead, the incompetent are often blessed with an inappropriate confidence, buoyed by something that feels to them like knowledge." This effect can have a profound impact on what people believe, the decisions they make, and the actions they take. In one study, Dunning and Ehrlinger found that women performed equally to men on a science quiz, and yet women underestimated their performance because they believed they had less scientific reasoning ability than men. The researchers also found that as a result of this belief, these women were more likely to refuse to enter a science competition.3 Causes of the Dunning-Kruger Effect So what explains this psychological effect? Are some people simply too dense, to be blunt, to know how dim-witted they are? Dunning and Kruger suggest that this phenomenon stems from what they refer to as a "dual burden." People are not only incompetent; their incompetence robs them of the mental ability to realize just how inept they are. Incompetent people tend to: Overestimate their own skill levels Fail to recognize the genuine skill and expertise of other people Fail to recognize their own mistakes and lack of skill So is there anything that can minimize this phenomenon? Is there a point at which the incompetent actually recognize their own ineptitude? "We are all engines of misbelief," Dunning has suggested. While we are all prone to experiencing the Dunning-Kruger effect, learning more about how the mind works and the mistakes we are all susceptible to might be one step toward correcting such patterns.

You are an intellectual Alpha Dog but sometimes you wanna B!tch. And there is always some Butch @ss to feed the bear.

Can you elaborate on what you mean by detached and nonentity. Do you mean noone and an unlicensed psychiatrist.

You shouldn't be afraid, especially during Pride month.

It would appear that you are mistaken on the first count, and powerless in the second.

How about winners are grinners and losers are boozers. or Those who have an aversion to success. May find that some of their wants and needs aren't currently being met.

If your problems don't get fixed you are not important.
