Sometimes it seems like the world is composed of either Mr. Peabodys or Stimpson J. Cats.
People are either total techno geeks speaking their own language, or stupid halfwits that can't understand anything technical in the slightest and would just rather wallow around in their own barf.
When you try to bridge the gap and explain technical problems simply, from a layperson's perspective, the Stimpys can't understand you, and Peabody gets mad at you because your code is malformed.
Stimpy is too lazy to read what your written complaint is and too stupid to process it, whereas Peabody wants to pick apart the problems with it and scold you for doing something incorrectly (when it was probably Stimpy that made it wrong in the first place).
I think Google is Mr. Peabody, and eBay is Stimpy.
I'm just a pet owner who wants to have both cats and dogs, but they're not speaking to eachother right now.

Culture is cyclical and goes in waves and dips, and right now culture is dipping about as low as it can get. It's like everyone is master of some conceptual file cabinet or they wallow in their own belief that they know that they know what they know and no one can tell them that this is impossible.
There is a bright spot of hope in our new president and he appears to be the first person who can actually admit that they can be wrong or make a mistake, and this is exciting because maybe culture will move in a direction where it is possible to be human and make mistakes and actually admit that it is human to make errors.
These Mr. Peabodys and Stimpsons will non longer have to insulate themselves with conceptual file cabinets or false beliefs in their own stupid incorrigibility and perhaps we can all begin to become human again.
