Why is God such a jerk?

He made too many zombie flicks in the bronze age.

No joke.  Read Ezekiel, chapter 37, first 10 verses or so.

Dude is SUCH a one-trick pony. He needs to go on sabbatical or something, refresh his creativity. Maybe collaborate with some dead authors.

I am taking my philosophy test and he uses the same wrong definition of "cognitive dissonance" in the test.

My rage gland is leaking, knowing that this buttbean is churning out 40-80 students PER TERM who will be walking around my planet thinking that cognitive dissonance is a coping mechanism.

You know what? This entire chapter is based in psychological concepts, and this guy can't write a test for shit.

I'm sure he's very nice.

Mesozoic Mister Nigel

I am at this point just going to go ahead and assume that philosophy and psychology just have unique vocabularies that happen to share many of the same words for totally different definitions. I think it will make the rest of the term easier on me.

My Marketing Principles work last week included cognitive dissonance to mean:

When you think you will only spend so much on a car, end up paying way more than your principles allow, and think about this while driving it home.

Dude, seriously:

QuoteJosé is a child who has always believed in Santa Claus. Upon being told that Santa Claus does not exist, which of the following is he LEAST LIKELY to do?
   
Find out more information from people who do not believe in Santa Claus.

Look for evidence that would confirm that Santa Claus exists.
   
Look over all his old books about Santa Claus.
   
Not listen to anyone who claims that Santa Claus does not exist.

That is significantly better than the way this guy is using the term, which is as a rationalizing tool to minimize discomfort, which is literally the opposite of the definition.

I'm up to two hours of cardio on the ski machine at the gym with max incline, and resistance. I burn 1550 calories per hour. My shoulders are getting more defined, and I can now do 5 reps on that dip machine with the max weight on it. I was only able to do 3 reps 5 months ago, and I haven't been doing any sort of weight lifting at all just cardio on the ski machine.

Mesozoic Mister Nigel

You burn as many calories in an hour as I eat in a day! That's incredible.

Fucking finally! A real god damned break!

Just snagged a renter on CL who wants to pay me six months rent upfront AND THEN make regular monthly payments. She has buttload of clients and works 7 days a week.

I am not screwed at all now!

:noodledance:

I can buy a van that isn't a piece of shit AND eat food for the forseeable future!
