Great read. This is something you come to assimilate as you get older -- unless you are very wise, very young. Or perhaps it's cultural. But it something you are aware of from very early on. And so, so many folk fight it. To put a geek twist on it, this behaviour always reminds me of kipple; the concept coined by Philip K Dick. I remember first reading about it -- in Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? -- and being quite struck by the idea. There's the First Law of Kipple... 'Kipple drives out nonkipple.' http://www.43folders.com/2007/12/12/dick-kipple http://www.43folders.com/2007/12/12/dick-kipple
