Here’s a small part of a conversation I had with Shuntoo the other day. I don’t feel I have the energy to write the full conversation, but I just have to share a part of it.
Me: If you are hungry, I have a delicious cake in my fridge.
Shuntoo: And what if I am not hungry?
M: Well, then don’t eat it.
S: But would you still have the cake in your fridge?
M: Of course, what kind of a silly question is that?
S: Well, you said that IF I am hungry, you have a delicious cake in your fridge. I think that logically means that if I am not hungry, you don’t have it.
I felt like throwing the cake at his face. But he went on to explain why I, and not he, was being silly. And as I said earlier, I don’t feel I have the energy to write the whole conversation.
