Re:Westerners vs.the World: We are the weird ones by stretchwithme on Thursday August 26, 2010 @02:22AM (#1635235)
Everybody's weird when compared to everyone else. The only comparison you can do is with a mean or an average. Most will not be sitting at the mean.

Yes, we live so strangely. Thats why everybody is abandoning technology so they go back to digging for gourds.

Faster, better, cheaper, wealthier. Yeah its strange. And weird means bad, right? But wouldn't any improvement at all be unusual?

Bad, bad innovators!

And to think, for a second there, we were under the mistaken impression that to use one's mind and to succeed at it was the birthright of every human.
