For example, in mathematics, as fascinating as the integers are, it would be shortsighted of me to assume that the properties of a particular integer must apply to all integers, and it would be logically reckless of me to assume/assert that such properties must apply to the uncountable set of real numbers. However, it appears human generalizations, especially those generalizations that are directed toward other people, have the unfortunate tendency of increasing exponentially into the realm of the uncountable and often at a rate of warp speed--perhaps warp 10 in the absence of sound logic, proof, and reason.
Looks like a divide-by-zero issue. Throw in some dirt. (That's the old FORTRAN programmer coming out in me).
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.
