Why would you immediately assume such a negative scenario?
- batmansbelt 13y agoInverse Hanlan's Razor.
- bryang 13y agoHanlon's Razor is something I've never heard before - but it's a philosophy that I've tried to stick to in my life. It's so great to be able to put an "official" term to something you know but can't associate with a title!
- oh_sigh 13y agoHow is that a negative scenario? Not wanting to have a conversation isn't a crime.
- avree 13y agoAre you serious? You don't see how immediately assuming that he's faking a serious disability in order to avoid normal conversation and eavesdrop is a negative scenario?
- njharman 13y agoNothing in the description indicates driver was faking serious disability.Why did you assume that?
- avree 13y agoDo you see the comment I am replying to? The user said " I thought initially he was doing it to avoid conversation with passengers and to hopefully over hear some juicy valley gossip. " "it" refers to "being deaf."
- njharman 13y agoit refers to "Without saying a word, the driver passed me his iPhone."
- debt 13y agoThere are some strange people our here in the valley. I thought maybe he was one. Either way, the thought crossed my mind and I posted it here because there's also some strange people on HN that I thought could relate.
