quote [ Repeat after me: calling something logic doesn’t make it so. Calling someone rational doesn’t make it so. Opinions from Youtube men are not facts. Getting mad about philosophers you haven’t read isn’t reason. Insulting your girlfriend because she questions your sudden political shift isn’t logic. ]
Got my mojo working, but – in a highly illogical shift of events – it won't work on you.

Spock is a fictional character. Without fail, anyone I've ever met that claimed to be rational and unemotional have in fact been emotionally stunted man-children. It's like they use the words logic and reason to hide their immaturity and weakness. They pretend emotion doesn't influence their decisions, they pretend they are superior by default, and they bully anyone who challenges that.

Shit, even Spock had emotions that influenced his decision making.

I guess the emotionally stunted can at least make a claim to being less (or differently) emotional?
But those guys are all arseholes. FACT. |

Sometimes, making decisions based on emotion is the logical thing to do.
