Which means that most people aren't really listening at all. They're actually thinking about what their response will be.

i like it. it's kinda deep. makes me think about how people get into arguments so easy without even clearly interpreting the other person side.

You must be bored. To reply you have to listen and to listen you might want to reply.

You must be married too.

In most cases people hear about 40% of what is said to them.  Then as noted the rest of the time they are formulating their reply. 

My own observations derive that this may well apply to the written word in many circumstances as is most aptly demonstrated within the walls of this emporium of roasted ground beans and cured porcine delights.

Right now I'm reading Thinking Fast and Slow which is describing the natures of heuristic (fast) and analytic (slow) thinking.

Example of fast thinking (paraphrased):

Steve is a quiet man, keeps to himself and is very well organized. Is Steve a librarian or a farmer?

Example of a slow thinking

17 x 24


Heuristic thinking will more times than not arrive at the conclusion Steve is a librarian. Yet farmers are typically quiet men who keep to themselves and are well organized. Fast thinking does not take into account that there are actually more men farmers than men librarians.


Unless you are a whiz at math, it will take you quite a bit more time to come to the conclusion of what 17 x 24 is.


Conclusion: Bapu is a heuristic poster.
