Weird Psych Lim, Part II
Sep. 22nd, 2010 07:31 pmSo, this evening,
mjperson and I went to Chipotle again before the Comet run. Some of you may remember the last time and the Great Confusion about how many tacos "tacos" is, and that the canonical answer is "three".
I can now order tacos, it turns out. But Mike can no longer order two tacos, because now he knows that he's paying for three tacos, and paying for three but only getting two is Wasteful.
"Can I have two tacos... argh, no, better make it three."
Then he eats two tacos, and picks unhappily at the third.
It amuses me that I break in exactly the opposite direction than he does, and it should surprise no one who knows the both of us that I break by Not Understanding and he breaks when his Reality Denial is Thwarted.
