I mean obviously not but you seem to understand why the freakonomics thing was stupid, what else do you want to know?

i guess one thing that really interests me in life is how people have reasonable & unreasonable fears (well i guess no 'fear' is reasonable but let's say people will manage risks based on perceived risk w/out a real sense of perspective) so what i was wondering was whether or not ppl realize how 'dangerous' drunk walking could be or if freakonomics dudes were just blowing that up for the sake of a hook into a partic. chapter of the book. Like, perceived risks vs. actual risks is something i wonder about a lot (like irrational fear of flying when people are more likely to die in a traffic accident -- sometimes received wisdom is actually wrong! and you don't need flawed statistical analysis to prove it)

the first time deej casually said "Mizay" to me like i was supposed to understand exactly what that name means was right after he declared "there's no way a dude like Lil Durk has as many actual youtube views as Bo Deal" and i was like okay man i don't have the right tunnel vision for this conversation

ha it's funny you brought this up cuz "you're more likely to die in a car crash than a plane crash" is biased in probably very similar ways that the drunk walking vs drunk driving was

yeah i mean hes not blowing my mind that 'mr smarm' wasn't a 'zing' that i used 'system 2' to come up w/ here that was kind of my point
but if he was just responding to the drunk driving v drunk walking thing then fair play

As for "The Artist" -- which wound up winning four Spirit Awards, including Best Feature -- Rogen quipped, "I thought we created the whole foreign film category to stop this shit from happening."

Which Oscar-nominated actors beat up their fellow nominees? Genuinely curious.
― robbery by sudden snatching (DJP), Sunday, 26 February 2012 16:25 (1 year ago) Permalink
haha fellow nominees, probably none, but there are still a lot of abusive men who've been nominated or won which i think was the more more important part there. even this year they have a guy (gary oldman) whose ex-wife accused of abusing her.
