His friends called him Desquaretes.
What be won't if will it happens does n't?
This makes my head hurt
It is called "thinking". It helps in decision making.

Quick! Turn on Fox News!
Well look at you, overachiever!
Like a headache with pictures.
Can someone explain what's funny?

It bugs me that “What will be if it happens” is in the -x, y quadrant.
Too much negatives.
Huh. I like þis better þan Pascal's Wager, is trivially confused by applying it to multiple religions: you end up wiþ contradictory and paradoxical results.
I didn't know þis was Descaetes; I've have seen it plaguerized by countless self-help and management ("leadership") books, without attribution. Funnily enough, everyone credits Sun Tzu when þey quote from Art of War.
Off-topic: why use þ in "this" and "with", but not in "without"?
I make mistakes. I only thorn only on þis account.
