The reason men here can *fix* things, is the same reason that men can build airplanes and rockets and fly around the earth and to the moon.
The simple reason is that men who can "do stuff" pay attention to *detail*. Specifically, without paying attention to detail, nobody can build or fix anything.
Specifically, detail is required to *understand* how things work, where those who can't handle such detail are doomed in many endeavors in life.
Worse, men (like you appear to be) who can't handle detail, are doomed to make completely incorrect conclusions, since all you see is the top layer of everything which is complex.
Since you only see the top layer, you see nothing of the detail underneath, dooming you to ascribe causes to things which are just not the case.
In fact, you're forever doomed to make incorrect conclusions, simply because you (apparently) lack the ability to handle detail (which is required for comprehensive thought processes).
Um. OK. So do we all.
While you don't seem to be able to handle detail, you do seem to handle fear very well.
The only reason you added that otherwise meaningless statement above was to increase the fear, since *emotion* is what you feel given you are apparently unable to comprehend detail.
What you're doing with that statement above is what all politicians do when they want the masses to be mislead. You are working on pure emotion, hoping your audience is, like you, unable to comprehend your lack of detail.
There should be an analysis upcoming of what caused the tire to "shatter". In that analysis, I would expect detail from most men, but not from you. From you, all I expect is upcoming emotion.
Your complete and utter lack of detail makes your entire argument moot. What exactly caused your left-front tire to "shatter"?
You don't have a clue. Therefore, all you have is emotion.
Again, you'd make a great politician because you lack detail and yet, you ply emotion instead.
What I find amazing is that I have been responding to you, in line, where I have ascribed the ethics and tactics of a politician to YOU.
Me? I provide far too much detail and truth to be a politician.
That you use the word "blather" when detail was provided shows *exactly* how your mind works.
Engineering detail is "blather" to you. Hence, your only input is purely emotional.
Thank you for stating for yourself, exactly what I have surmised from your very words, which is that you are incapable of handling detail.
You should recognize this inability to handle detail for what it is, which is a disability I don't have. I have *plenty* of other disabilities mind you (e.g., I go far too deeply into detail for my own good), so it is cathartic for you to recognize that most of your technical conclusions will be wrong, since you are operating on sheer emotion.
As long as you know your limitations, you won't be a danger to society.
I know mine - which is that I spend far too much time and energy on things that are merely interesting in their myriad details.
This newsgroup seems to have *plenty* of political posts (for some odd reason), so you should be happy here, as am I as there are few, but existent engineering style posts also.
You are incapable of making that assessment because you lack the details that I have which is critical in assessing whether a mechanic actually performs the job correctly.
All you're operating on is intuitive emotion. I'm pretty sure you're a Myers-Briggs highly intuitive person.
That's fine - but you're also a highly Judgmental person, which, put together, makes all your *decisions* dangerous (but that's a topic for alt.psychology newsgroups).
Again, you operate on pure intuitive emotion, sans any valid facts. That means your opinions are based on absolutely nothing concrete. At best, you'll be 50% correct, although you'll be convinced that you are
100% correct since you are the one assessing yourself.
You do realize that you're operating, like a girl, on pure emotion, right? This is a thread about how to properly repair a tire. This newsgroup is apropos for such a discussion.
Your discussion is really apropos for a newsgroup titled more akin to men.who.wear.ladies.pink.panties or some such rot. :)
Exactly. Detail scares you.
You really may be one who is better off in the psychology groups since you seem to be *afraid* of detail, such that anyone who delves into detail scares you so much that you actually fall to the depths of depravity to stoop so low as to warn others that people may ask for detail on the automobile and home and science repair newsgroups.
Your use of "it" shows your depravity indeed. Therefore I discount you out of hand, for utter lack of detail.
You're the same kind of Myers-Briggs person who is highly intuitive and highly judgemental, who actually thinks cell phones cause accidents (without a shred of detailed reliable proof backing up your claims).
