I never know what to post about on here, but I always come up with something eventually.
That statement is only true for moderate values of never, and high values of always.
It's the same principle as 2+2=4 except for exceptionally high values of 2.
And yet that is how I always speak. It is so easy to talk like that. Using words that are very extreme in ways that are not.
This is somewhat ironic though. Have you ever seen those questionnaires that have options Always/Almost Always/Sometimes/Almost Never/Never or 1 is Horrible and 10 is Amazing, or some such thing? Those I rarely will put down the extreme answers, I always stick to something more moderate. For some reason putting "I always brush my teeth twice a day" on paper seems more inaccurate than if I just said it. Because it is only true for moderately high values of always.
I hope you all read my blog every week!
