or at least left the dragon. that could have helped, too. i am pretty sure it's the last one! i mean not a wardrobe, but a portal all the same. it's stuff that already happened so i guess it's a precaution so that it won't happen again, but you'd think they'd cut me some slack.
Nobody said portals were easy to navigate. Is it really fair to judge you for wandering off in another lifetime? I mean where do you draw the line between what is and isn't reasonable to hold over someone's head when they got a brand new spankin' life since it happened? Is there an equation based on personality and behavior similarities that can be used to calculate what we should worry about repeating?
it might be a little fair since the people who judge are people who saw it the first time. i think maybe if you are like at least 40% likely to repeat a dumbass mistake you may need to reconsider and have everyone else reconsider it, too.
No wonder! That makes way more sense! Here I thought someone was being real unforgiving for every memory you told them where you happened to mess up. The thing you might repeat should affect where that warning percentage stands. Even if I'm just 5% likely to kill someone I think a one in twenty chance for murder is pretty high for blowing it off.
i would agree with that, but that's also assuming people are going to tell us about the things they're remembering and most likely to do. would people always be that honest, you think?
True. Murderous types are often liars aren't they? So much for that idea. Can't blame people for wanting to keep embarrassing memories to themselves too. It would be ironic if not telling someone lead to them repeating an embarrassing action that could have been stopped if they warned others.
somehow i have a feeling that will happen to somebody but as long as it isn't me i think i can handle that. would it be better if people were more open about stuff? yeah, sure. is that going to happen? not likely. so i guess we just do the best with what we've got.
Oh well. We can only control ourselves. Same old story. We're only human. Wait. That doesn't apply to all of us does it? Retrospec took people from all kinds of planets. I don't know what expression to use now.
Definitely! Yeah! I don't mean to suggest that aliens aren't people. I guess all species make mistakes so the expression sort of works in a way. The point stands!
