I have learned so much more about antiques by posting false statements (increasingly knowingly) about things I have found while out thrifting than I have asking for information or help.
If you ask for help, you're usually asking into the void.
If you make an incorrect statement, you get repeatedly bashed with facts and research.
So if I must... I shall.
- ryanjshaw 5y agoA similar idea works in real life when you're looking for something. If you say out loud "I can't find the whiteboard markers, they're not where they are supposed to be!", somebody will magically appear to remind you that you moved them to another meeting room earlier that morning.
