When you find yourself in an -ism you’ve taken a wrong turn somewhere.

- ben_w 2y agoI have vague memories of a scene from the UK comedy show "The Thin Blue Line" where a bunch of bad -isms were followed by counter-examples of good -isms, but despite the episode itself being easy to find (the episode is called "Ism Ism Ism"), I can't easily find the scene within the episode.
- adbachman 2y agoAbsolutely! If it means you are unable to make any decisions or reach any conclusions which do not align with your -ism, then you're in a dead end.
- getnormality 2y agoAh, so your thing must be skepticism.
- pavlov 2y agoI find myself in Cubism and realize I must have taken a wrong turn somewhere, but perspective has collapsed all around me and the way out is blocked by fragments of guitar strings and noses of long-dead Parisian mistresses.
