2010. HAPPY NEW YEAR.

Normal Human vs. Petrolhead

Pterolhead are people who are fanatical of cars, a big fan of cars. The following is an experiment on how people, using a normal human being as a reference point, react to a certain.

 

Experiment 1.1

Subject: A Jaguar

Petrolhead: I like that car. Beautiful

Normal: I like the animal. I saw one in the zoo and it’s nice.

Conclusion

Mainstream normal human being would react to the actual meaning of the subject while the slightly not normal object, the petrolhead, would react different to the given subject. In this case, a petrolhead would think a Jaguar is a car, which is not the subject’s true, while the normal reference human would react correctly to the subject. Thus, in an event of a conversation when these two touched about the term jaguar:

Normal: I’ve a seen a Jaguar in the zoo.

Petrolhead: Wow, jaguars are normally own by rich guys and you seen one parking at the zoo parking lot. He must be very interested in animals otherwise rich guys won’t even be interested in animals.

Chicken-and-Egg Problem

A: I see that you are a rich guy. Saw you driving expensive cars.

B: Yes. I am a rich guy. I’m rich in my mind. My mind is rich with knowledge and intelligence, which can bring me to success and wealth. A rich mind, rich and every other places.

A: I’d prefer to be rich in material wealth, like money. Because not everybody is born with an intelligent mind. Even if you are intelligent, how many professors are millionaires? Instead, if i born rich with cash, i can buy all the rich minds in the world and make me rich in all aspects.

String of Bad Luck

A check-list of bad luck:

1. Lost my wallet
2. lost my cash
3. lost my identification card
4. lost my driving licence
5. lost my ATM card
6. lost my ID
7. Drove 400km on half-patched torn tires
8. Lost my car keys in a cave (and found it)

The first 6 items can be categorized as one. And all those are lost when i'm 400km away from my home. They said i should report to the cops and wait for my belongings to return, by any luck, in 7 to 10 days.

So for that 10 days, i had been walking and driving around the streets without any identification documents and driving recklessly without a driving licence. I even drove out during the holy hour, 3a.m., and drove pass some police check points. Thankfully, i have a good faith and the cops could see that. They take a look at my face and in the car and let me through. Or else, i'll spend a night in the lock-up, which is something i have yet to experience.

On point number 7, i was suppose to travel 400km northwards. I sent my car for maintanence 4 days prior. What seemed to be a minor maintanence became a major operation. My engine radiator cooling pipings are all leaking suddenly. So the system had to be fixed and it cost me time and i missed an appointment. Then, when the car finally start to move, i spotted a puncture. That was during the evening.

I managed to reach a tire shop just before it closes. It was found the the tires are worn out badly and too thin to be patched. For a last ditch attempt to get the car going, we made a risky move: patch the punctured tire from the inside. For the next 400km, i prayed that the tire will not puncture again mid-way.

Then, i got my tires changed upon reaching my destination. Then, i joined an expedition through a cave. I only keep my car key with me because it is not possible to carry lot's of stuff and climb through the cave. I checked my pocket after every distance i walked. Until one point, i lost the key. The entire troupe had to go back and search for the key. I safe this part to write in another posting, it's a pretty interesting experience.

Now the wave of bad luck has gone, i have some new experience. Let's hope bad luck doesn't get worse if ever there is a second wave...
