friendliness paradox

A theory when friendliness or hospitality and privacy don't go hand in hand

A perfect example of friendliness paradox is the collective culture: People from collective culture are friendly, but they're sneaking into other's businesses

TBC

Two types of disease:
1. A disease caused by Mycobacterium Tuberculosis. It can be healed by taking special antibiotic formulations for six months to a year, depending with disease severity. This disease could be prevented by doing BCG vaccinations, twice in a lifetime (once for childhood, repeated dose in adulthood)
2. A disease which degenerates Islamic faith: Tachayul/Takhayul (Superstitions), Bid'ah (Innovation----in a bad way), Churafat/Khurafat (Myths, false beliefs, questionable cause)

TBC is harmful, but it is curable and preventable

lathi card

Forcing other(s) to be consistent with what the other's said, either/both to attack the opponent(s) and/or evading allegation(s)

Also known as: tu quoque fallacy

Originated from traditional Javanese proverb: ajining dhiri ana ing lathi /ɑ•dʒee•neeng deer•ee o•no ing la•ti/ (your words determine your self esteem)

If you playing the Lathi card, you're losing the argument and no one can save you, not even yourself

Remember: two wrongs ain't make no right/two wrongs don't make a right

TED

Previously, this conference stands for Technology, Economy, and Design. However, this conference expanded into broad topics, such as politics or philosophies.

But underneath it all, it still a perfect place to circlejerk/committing intellectual masturbation

TED, ideas worth sharing....

...in theory

Monas

The portmanteau of Monumen Nasional (Indonesian National Monument), one of the most finest Indonesian landmark

Monas is a great landmark, however it's tainted by this shits:

1. Architectural design: it's too sexual and pornographic for public place (it resembles Lingga-Yoni/Dick and Pussy a.k.a. people fucking)
2. Deforestation which makes everyone uncomfortable
3. Abused for political or religious reasons, such as December 2nd a.k.a 212 or Christmas Celebration in Monas
4. Revitalisation hell

Whiplash complex

When you doing something and sacrifice everything, to the point you're losing your sanity and/or even harming yourself.

Taken from Whiplash movie, when Andrew Neumann is trying so hard to prove Mr. Fletcher wrong, even though it takes a toll on Andrew's own life

Hustle culture has a side effect: Whiplash complex

low effort post

Any post that dismissing any considerations, such as research, proper grammars, the serious tone of the post, demographics, etc.

TLDR, it's the "politically correct" way to say any posts that nobody cares, nobody asked and tends to derail any mindful discussions

List of low effort post:
1. Memes
2. Shitposts
3. GIFs
4. One liners
5. Bumpposting
6. Necroposting
7. Stickers (or emojis)
