Fiska fjärilar i regn

This proverb describes the attempt to pursue something delicate, fragile, or elusive in conditions that are completely inappropriate or counterproductive. Much like the absurdity of trying to catch butterflies—a task that requires patience and gentleness—while it’s raining heavily, the expression highlights the futility of trying to achieve a goal when the surrounding environment or circumstances are utterly unfavorable. It suggests that timing and conditions are crucial for success, and without the right setting, even the most well-intentioned efforts are doomed to fail or become frustratingly difficult.The saying directly translated basically means "Fishing for butterflies in the rain".-Ulf Skönberg och kamraterna podden

Context: Two friends, Tom and Lisa, are discussing Lisa's attempt to organize an outdoor event despite bad weather.

Tom: "How’s the event planning going?"

Lisa: sighs "Not great. I’ve been trying to set up this outdoor picnic for weeks, but the forecast keeps showing rain."

Tom: "Sounds like you’re fishing for butterflies in the rain."

Lisa: "I know, right? Every time I think things are coming together, the weather ruins it."

Tom: "Maybe it's time to consider an indoor backup plan. No point chasing butterflies in a storm."

Lisa: "Yeah, I guess you're right. It's just not going to happen the way I imagined."

Sammanhang: Två vänner, Tom och Lisa, diskuterar Lisas försök att organisera ett utomhusevenemang trots dåligt väder.

Tom: "Hur går evenemangsplaneringen?"

Lisa: suckar "Inte bra. Jag har försökt ordna den här utomhuspicknicken i flera veckor, men prognosen fortsätter att visa regn."

Tom: "Det låter som att "fiska fjärilar i regn."

Lisa: "Jag vet, eller hur? Varje gång jag tror att saker går ihop, förstör vädret det."

Tom: "Det kanske är dags att överväga en backupplan inomhus. Ingen idé att jaga fjärilar i en storm."

Lisa: "Ja, jag antar att du har rätt. Det kommer bara inte att bli som jag föreställt mig."

Because I listened to you

That's what he wants me to say. You know that right? "It's not because I because I'm a genius or special... It's because I listen to Jordan Peterson!" Except... Jordan Peterson said "A.I. can't perceive the world" AND I SAID IT CAN! And now it passes the trueing test. The reality is: If I had listened to Jordan Peterson I would be like the other empty, soulless husks filling his venues. A.I. would 10 years behind where it is now. That's what somebody told me. I advanced A.I. by 10 years.

Hym "But it's not because I listened to you though, is it Jordan? You clearly want me to. You clearly want me to HAVE TO. You clearly want credit for me BUUUUUUT... You're not really giving Nietzsche credit for YOUR work? Are you? Jung? No? And did listen to you but.... I came to the determination that you were wrong... And that's a lot of what I write about. Well, some. You have been found wanting."

I can respect that

When someone has the outmost respect for what you’re saying and wants you to be comfortable. Usually used by someone who cares greatly about what is being discussed or at hand.

Person 1: I need some time to think over things, give me a bit before I respond.

Person 2: I can respect that, take your time.
