I Hate Being Right and I Love Being Wrong

I don't want to sound cocky when I say I'm right about people. I've been able to read a few people's to an approximate point for the most part. However, I don't like it when I'm right about them. Sometimes, I wish people can just prove me wrong. :/

Human Syntax Never Seem Logical

We like to think of ourselves as logical entities. We are able to observe and experience and from those form of interaction we can come to a conclusion on what we need to do. However, logic always escape us in the most crucial of moments. In comparison to a simple if statement in a line a code, a decision is made within a fraction of a second in comparison to how we function. Take for example,

If (objA != objB){
objA = 1;
objB = 0;
}else{
objA == objB;
}

Though this is probably not the most accurate representation of what I can think of. I'm not that great in thinking in pseudocode. Well, I am, but not when using psuedocode to compare to human experiences.

What it means if objA does not equal to objB then they are different, they do not equal each other.

Take a human scenario of, if one is not happy with another what would the most logical thing to do, be? Simple, interaction with the other party is therefore minimize. However, humans also have the ability to fix issues internally without external syntax being added. However, if there is no solution what would be the next logical step be? Simple, you refer back to the first option you already have.

I've been exposed to a couple scenarios of such in the last couple of weeks. Human logic fails us at the most crucial moments in our life. Solutions in life are simple, we tend to make it hard for ourselves.

Cynicism

"Please do not be cynical. I hate cynicism. It's my least favorite quality. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."

-Conan O'Brien

After watching the final episode of The Tonight Show with Conan O'Brien, he just seem like the most genuine fellow on television. Despite his cynical demeanor he still believe in the most simple principle of hard work and being kind; something I've been told time and time again from professionals I've met. Watching him tearing up as he said his closing remarks just shows how much he cares for the work he does, it's a shame he was force to quit.

Here's to you Conan.

Adventures at a Best Buy

I was buying printer ink at my local Best Buy with my friend Teng. This is the happenings that occurred as the transaction was being made.

I approached the cashier.
Cashier: Do you have a Reward Zone Card?
Me: No.
Teng: You can sign up for one now.
Cashier: I wasn't going to ask, but you can.
Teng: It'll help you save money.
Cashier: It doesn't help you save money, you earn money.
*I'm paying for the item.
Teng: You're pretty.
*I glanced to see if she was, I wasn't paying attention earlier; she was.
*A brief silence
Cashier: Thanks.
Me: Teng, you're a creep.
*Cashier laughed
Me: Have a good one.
