Whatever the doubtful counterpart to wishful thinking is, a great example would be conjuring up the perfect hyena to make the perfect bite without otherwise crushing the bone. "Withering skepticism" maybe?

It's obvious though. Should they also note who it is that knows it to be the oldest, along with when and where they knew this? Just in case? Did you get burned on an exam over this or something? It's silly to be so exact about thi

I know we're not supposed to bitch about UX, but could anyone get past 1/2 way? My totally-not flagship Android crashes trying to read this in Firefox. I was hooked but never got to the conclusion.
