For me, it may be that the toilet paper roll needs to have the open end away from the wall. I don’t want to reach under the roll to take a piece! That’s ludicrous!
That or my recent addiction to correcting people when they use “less” when they should use “fewer”
Pause long enough to go “that’s different”, then hand you the hot dog, because only one of those items is a taco, even if it’s not commonly called a taco.
Then it’s not a fucking taco. If it were a taco, it would be readily apparent what I meant. You have to parse my request and try to interpret what I could be meaning by taco as I’m using it in an incorrect way.
Language is meant to communicate meaning and if the language I use obfuscates my meaning it’s being used incorrectly. It isn’t clear that I meant hot dog when I said taco, hence your hypothetical pause.
So you’re WRONG, but I do appreciate your honesty, thank you let’s play again sometime
So if there were scrambled eggs and caviar on the table. You say pass the eggs and someone without hesitation hands over the caviar are they wrong?
Out of the two, does one look at caviar and truly think “eggs” first? Before eggs ?
They are a tie for me, because I think of them as salty fish eggs.
A sushi place had an egg roll (sushi, not egg rolls) and I thought it was the little fish eggs thing but was actually scrambled egg in a rectangle. My disappointment was immense.
Hm, I think I’d pass you the scrambled eggs first, but I may hesitate and or ask for clarification. This example is a little different because there is some element of ambiguity involved. The intent in the experiment is to create a situation with zero ambiguity other than the “wrong” answer. I think you’ve created a different situation, more akin to there being a tuna sub on the table along with the hot dog and asking for “the sandwich” which isn’t nearly as good a test for this purpose.
For your test, there’d have to be nothing egg-like besides the caviar. At least for it to be using the same methodology the test I created uses.
