Ok. myth-wise. I believe that the idea of good people and bad people are a myth. There's no such great divide in human character. There is only people! And people are people, simple as that, we cannot describe them as good or bad, but rather, as individuals, with their strengths and weaknesses. For instance, one of my strength is that I have an analytical mind. I was born with it. I didn't do anything to get this way. It's my natural instinct to think deep thoughts and connect complicated, technical ideas together to perform a task. On the downside, I am an introvert. Being an introvert, which is the reason why I am so self-absorbed and makes me appear that I don't care about other people. Truth of the matter, I deeply care about other people. I just don't show it the same way an extrovert would. Now, knowing this a few years back, I worked on my empathy, on showing empathy, genuine empathy.
My point is, I've been labeled a "bad guy" because I'm an introvert, because I always have my wall up. I let no one in. I don't think I'm a good guy or bad guy, I was just born this way man. I don't know. Any thoughts? I'm tired.
Damn I still write like a 3rd grader. lolz

Sooooooooooo, you see good and bad people as myths? To me, it sounds a little more on perception based on what you've written. Describe what a myth means to you.
But damn, hahaha, I was looking for something simple. I just read an analysis about life haha.
What's holding you down right now?

Another myth people keep telling me until this day is the idea of getting cancer when eating foods that was microwaved in a plastic container. Attention Cambodians: You will NOT get cancer after eating pahok that was microwaved in your tupperware!

precisely, believe. good and bad people don't exist, I refuse to judge people that way, its inaccurate and yes, it based on perception of the individual. My perception is that everyone is good and bad and everything in between.
....and all of your feelings and judgments about them are based on their actions? Good or bad, you'll either cut ties or continue a relationship with them? What if what you think about the person is somewhat wrong? When you find this out, do you beat yourself down and put yourself in a rut, thinking of how fucked up a person you are? Do you reevaluate your life and tally all the wrongs you've done and try to look forward to the future in hopes you can make amends? Or do you just let things be and allow time to progress? Are we in a therapy session? HAHA

I take being wrong seriously. I'm seldom wrong. dont' like it. makes me feel stupid.
I take this thing were talking about quite seriously bro. 100 time more seriously than writing skills or money.
I made it my life to learn how to judge someone and get it right. Being wrong is just a part of the learning process. Im' gonna get it wrong. I did get it wrong. I was wrong about many people in my past. I vowed to never get it wrong again. I don't play when it comes to human character. I put a lot of effort and energy into it.
crazy thing, I know you do the same

You sound like a Personality Type A kind of person. I get your repetition of the word, "wrong." There's a good chance you are a perfectionist by nature. One bump on the road will cause a havoc. Most people would like to be in your shoes and accept they're seldomly wrong.
You're right, I do the same. The difference is that I've found so many wrongs in my life than I could count everyone's fingers and toes on this site. I'm still wrong at many aspects today. The only thing I got for me is logic...computers, a job, and sports.

I would say that if there's not scientific data, then yes.
But I do strongly believe most people fall under this category.
I think the true context of this was to suggest that most people are stupid and lazy. lolz
Hahaha you got a point there. I say so myself, that some people have a brain but don't use it.
Seriously I don't even know how they come up with the percentage. How do they measure our brain usage?
