On the Reception and Detection of Pseudo-Profound Bullshit
#10
RE: On the Reception and Detection of Pseudo-Profound Bullshit
I honestly think this is one of the most important studies. We've all been tricked into thinking something was deep then ten minutes later when the perpetrator got away going "Wait, what?" at some point in our lives. What if those are just the times we detected it? What if 99 percent of all the "deep" stuff you ever heard that you followed as words of wisdom in reality had more holes in it than a Nicole Brown Simpson novelty sponge? What if Opera isn't actually a genius guru?
Granted its unlikely but thats still some scary shit to consider.
