This perfectly explains the effectiveness of "sleeping on it". By allowing yourself to take a step back, and forgetting the details, it allows you to actually make the choice easier. Not saying it'll be better, I don't know that, but easier.
Mountain dew contains excessive amounts of sodium, sugar, and caffeine. Each of these (especially sodium) take water to metabolize/offset, meaning drinking the mountain dew could mean death coming even sooner. The bagel, bites, on the other hand, were previously frozen, meaning the moisture in them is all on the top. Almost all food has moisture as almost all sugary drinks have calories.

I feel like more people should be teaching their children about the Abilene Paradox as a way to help them be comfortable with sharing how they truly feel. My family certainly fell victim to senseless decisions like this over the years and I had to learn the hard way that it's okay to be selfish in some cases.
, yes, our family of 5 had this problem years ago deciding where to eat out at, until I, as the father, decided that each person will take turns to be the authoritarian each week and make a decision that others will follow. Problem solved. It also teaches the weekly "authoritarian" to make a balanced decision.
my family's the complete opposite I've been trying to voice disagreement with literally everything they do and they just don't care and drag me along with their decisions that I never agreed to anyways
I have always wondered about this and it feels so good to finally have a logical answer, I've never understood why competitors were so close to each other, like, wtf? Now I get it, what a relief lol!

@@eyeballqueenofrats Also most of the time its reef sharks, aka even if a shark gets the octopus it wont kill it most of the time. Also even if it loses an arm it can regenerate with time. I completely agree with you, too.
Not saying you didn't mean it positively, but just in case, here's a little breakdown of what selfishness means in the context of decision making. If your family is very important to you and you want them to enjoy themselves more than whatever other alternatives you have, then it would be selfish to facilitate their enjoyment. Selfishness is a very misunderstood concept that is usually applied wrongly(?) in cases of egomania. Helping others is selfish more often than not. Being a teacher or donating to a charity is usually done because you value what you do. Not because you a ethically obligated. That's what teachers are. They are selfish. They teach others because they love doing that. I personally love teaching and have been a tutor many times without pay because I simply wanted to and found it extremely fun. People don't help others because they believe in the idea of helping others being the right ethical choice (most of the time). Helping others selflessly is idiotic because it has no rational referent in reality. It's an ethically fallacious decision because altruism as a leading ethic (sadly the leading ethic in most of the world) is fundamentally fallacious. It has no basis outside of faith (why is sacrificing values for others' sake the right choice? The answer is always "because it is" and not because there is an actual reason - there isn't). Always be rationally selfish. Always do what you value the most. If it's to play a video game or help a friend in need, ultimately the best choice is the selfish one. The one you value the most. And if you value your friends, helping them would usually take precedent and you will be extremely happy with your choice because the value gained is greater than the one from the video game. Sometimes it's the opposite. Introspect and refer back to past decisions to be able to make choices faster and see if they were indeed the right ones. As for the video, it deals with indecisions usually lead by perfectionist mindsets. If there is no clear cut choice and it would take too long to make a decision, just flip a coin or go with what's good enough. Read "The Paradox of Choice" for more on that topic. Great book that will help you a ton if you are a perfectionist or deal in pretty much any avenue - especially business of consumer goods and services. So go out there and be rationally selfish. It will take you far and make you happier than ever :]
@@SiMeGamer you're one of the more intelligent of the many commenters on youtube. that comment reads like something I would write, but no longer, having wasted too much time on the low intelligence demographic that is all too common these days.
@@SiMeGamer I believe the answer is not infact "because it is" but actually "because it maximises the happiness of those involved at large" you can look at the abilene paradox being a factor for a couple of reasons, either dishonesty or ignorance. They are either being dishonest for not answering what they truthfully want to do or they are being ignorant for assuming that they know the others want to go. Besides if they truly valued making others happy going because you made the assumption that everyone one wanted to go and youre making them happy by going would make you happy therefore everyone would be truly happy about going because everybody is making everybody happy and that's what they value. If each of them said "I don't want to go but I'll would like everyone else to be happy so I'll go if everyone wants to and be happy about it" then they wouldn't go. If you are selfish when considering your own wants but selfless about the final choice then that would maximise the overall happiness.
If you only have (dry) food available and no drinks and considering that it's easier to die of thirst than from starvation, I always thought it would be wiser to leave the food and drink your own urine. Salts are excreted through urine and if you continue to consume salts through food, the salt content in your urine will eventually become so concentrated that you will die of thirst just by drinking it. But if you don't eat any food, the salt content in your urine doesn't increase, which is why you would probably survive longer and not die of thirst, as if you tried to fight the much less acute death from starvation with food. Could any medical professional confirm or disprove my assumption?
My loins are sweating with love for both EDIT: I still don’t know what this is about but I’m glad I can have a “favorite vs favorite” as opposed to candidates today where it is “choose the lesser evil”
Definitely have fallen victim to the Abilene Paradox. I made some baguettes that were really good and offered the last one to someone else to be polite, saying, "I'll eat it if you dont." "Okay I guess I'll eat it," she said, and I could tell she didnt want it, she just didnt want it go to waste. If only she knew how much I wanted it, haha. Lose-lose for both of us :(
Sociologically, you're supposed to flip the coin, and while the coin is in the air, you will already know what you want, and no longer have to rely on the coin-flip.
Farmed animals also feel pain and it's cruel to hurt them. Pigs, for example, are gassed in a way that suffocates them while burning their eyes, throat, and mouth. They scream in pain and thrash about to eventually pass out. Then they have their throats slit. This is how we get bacon and pork. So maybe we should just eat more plant-based food instead.
@@tannerman46 a lot of your plant based foods are still alive when you eat them. They may not have pain receptors or brains but how can you definitively say they aren't suffering? Edit: Also, why advocate for the adoption of veganism or vegetarianism instead of more humane slaughterhouses?
I think the minimum grains of sand to make a heap is 4. By definition, a heap is "an untidy collection of objects placed haphazardly on top of each other." This requires at least 2 levels, one on top of the other. The top layer will have one element. The bottom needs to provide a stable foothold, which we all know is made of 3 contact points minimum. This setup will also provide a heapy conical shape So 4

Your drinking to eating ratio based on the average human metabolism and statistics gathered from SAS survival training activities is roughly 4.5/1, that is for every 4 and one half rations of water you should consume one ration of food.

And if you value your friends, helping them would usually take precedent and you will be extremely happy with your choice because the value gained is greater than the one from the video game. Sometimes it's the opposite. Introspect and refer back to past decisions to be able to make choices faster and see if they were indeed the right ones.
As for the video, it deals with indecisions usually lead by perfectionist mindsets. If there is no clear cut choice and it would take too long to make a decision, just flip a coin or go with what's good enough. Read "The Paradox of Choice" for more on that topic. Great book that will help you a ton if you are a perfectionist or deal in pretty much any avenue - especially business of consumer goods and services.
So go out there and be rationally selfish. It will take you far and make you happier than ever :]
@@SiMeGamer
love your reply
even though nothing in it wasnt allready on my mind, its still a great write-up of all aspects!
thanks
@@SiMeGamer you're one of the more intelligent of the many commenters on youtube. that comment reads like something I would write, but no longer, having wasted too much time on the low intelligence demographic that is all too common these days.
@@SiMeGamer I believe the answer is not infact "because it is" but actually "because it maximises the happiness of those involved at large" you can look at the abilene paradox being a factor for a couple of reasons, either dishonesty or ignorance. They are either being dishonest for not answering what they truthfully want to do or they are being ignorant for assuming that they know the others want to go. Besides if they truly valued making others happy going because you made the assumption that everyone one wanted to go and youre making them happy by going would make you happy therefore everyone would be truly happy about going because everybody is making everybody happy and that's what they value.
If each of them said "I don't want to go but I'll would like everyone else to be happy so I'll go if everyone wants to and be happy about it" then they wouldn't go. If you are selfish when considering your own wants but selfless about the final choice then that would maximise the overall happiness.
Wasn't sure if I should have liked or shared this video. So I just did both, don't regret.
Dang this video hit deep, thanks kevin.

The cult of pebbles has cheese. Is this even a question?
Yes. Which Cheese?
@@BuhBaBiBeBo any
@@aesthetic4270 I thought you were dead
If you have more than a thousand subscribers and want to not participate in a battle royal then yes
Implying the other one doesn’t have cheese as well? You see, this is how the cult got you.. I should pick up their strategies..
If you only have (dry) food available and no drinks and considering that it's easier to die of thirst than from starvation, I always thought it would be wiser to leave the food and drink your own urine. Salts are excreted through urine and if you continue to consume salts through food, the salt content in your urine will eventually become so concentrated that you will die of thirst just by drinking it. But if you don't eat any food, the salt content in your urine doesn't increase, which is why you would probably survive longer and not die of thirst, as if you tried to fight the much less acute death from starvation with food. Could any medical professional confirm or disprove my assumption?

My loins are sweating with love for both
EDIT: I still don’t know what this is about but I’m glad I can have a “favorite vs favorite” as opposed to candidates today where it is “choose the lesser evil”
Definitely have fallen victim to the Abilene Paradox. I made some baguettes that were really good and offered the last one to someone else to be polite, saying, "I'll eat it if you dont."
"Okay I guess I'll eat it," she said, and I could tell she didnt want it, she just didnt want it go to waste. If only she knew how much I wanted it, haha. Lose-lose for both of us :(
their is probably a paradox that says that I should exist, but here I am now...
My advice when faced with a decision: flip a coin and be right half the time, better odds than agonizing over it will get you.
I just choose based on alphabetical order.
Sociologically, you're supposed to flip the coin, and while the coin is in the air, you will already know what you want, and no longer have to rely on the coin-flip.
Im sorry, but why would you even acknowledge squid-torturing-girl?
extremist opinion? representative of the hyperconservative/hyperliberal or whatever party that's always present?
@@vedvod fair enough, yeah now i just thought about it
Farmed animals also feel pain and it's cruel to hurt them. Pigs, for example, are gassed in a way that suffocates them while burning their eyes, throat, and mouth. They scream in pain and thrash about to eventually pass out. Then they have their throats slit. This is how we get bacon and pork. So maybe we should just eat more plant-based food instead.
@@tannerman46 a lot of your plant based foods are still alive when you eat them. They may not have pain receptors or brains but how can you definitively say they aren't suffering?
Edit: Also, why advocate for the adoption of veganism or vegetarianism instead of more humane slaughterhouses?
@@reanetsemoleleki8219 do you actually care about the suffering of plants?

I think the minimum grains of sand to make a heap is 4.
By definition, a heap is "an untidy collection of objects placed haphazardly on top of each other."
This requires at least 2 levels, one on top of the other. The top layer will have one element. The bottom needs to provide a stable foothold, which we all know is made of 3 contact points minimum. This setup will also provide a heapy conical shape
So 4
you can make a heap with just 2 by that definition, a smaller grain of sand on top of a larger grain of sand

What is with Zach's obsession with Thunderdome-style death match events?
He’s looking for someone to finally end his streak
If that doesn't scream fun for whole family to you then I don't know what is
He joined the cult of jeff bandelun and also appreciates his love of the thunderdome
So thats why glow squid won over iceologer。
no, iceologer's loss was caused because of multiple rounds allowing moobloom and glow squid voters to team up to prevent a possible 2nd phantom. solution: passive and hostile mobs need seperate votes

From the amount of energy he put into this video, he is definiterly not hungry, or thirsty.
I'm just worried Zach would center his policy around the game CROC.
"I saw the little creatures in cages and I thought hey, that's not so bad".
The writers of this would be of great use to teachers in lesson planning; students would actually ENJOY school more and learn more as a result!! Keep up the amazing work you do guys!! 🇬🇧
2:51 sounds so weird out of context
One time I was at Wawa and I saw Zach, Tomar, and Jaxxi. I went over to say hi and shook their hands, but when I got into Tomar's grip he pulled me hard and threw me into Zach. Zach started screeching and then Jaxxi looked me in the eyes and Tomar saw it. Tomar started hitting her and Zach's screaming gave me goosepimples all over my body.
Overall cool guys.
We need a six star system. For too long now we've been using a 5 star system as a way of knowingly putting content creators, 'in their place,' as RUclips big wigs put it. Everyone gets 5 stars. 5 stars is a participation trophy in this millennial america. "Wow...thanks for clicking on the only option you had."
6 STARS however. Wow now that's something there isn't it? With 6 stars, a whole additional star over 5 that is, we could finally begin to both differentiate between and appreciate the REAL content creators and the layabouts. And we like showing our hardworking content creators just how much we appreciate them, yes?

"Eat or drink?!"
Ummm they're right in front of you, right? Why don't you just take both?
"Fighting to the death sounds bad. But I do like cheese"
Your drinking to eating ratio based on the average human metabolism and statistics gathered from SAS survival training activities is roughly 4.5/1, that is for every 4 and one half rations of water you should consume one ration of food. Use these numbers to determine your priority based on the last food or water ration you had taken.
Whang gang sounds appealing but I’m sorry, we’ve never had a goblin president before, and I’d like to see more representation in office, so I’m going with the cult of pebbles

Before this begins. You drink first starting with small sips. You can survive weeks with no food but only days without water.
That's the rule of 3... You can go;
3 minutes without air.
3 days without water.
3 weeks without food.
(Roughly) before it becomes life-threatening.
