My problem

I find the insinuation that I am using others (solely) for the purpose of my own aggrandizement both condescending and insult and I feel as though I'm being used for the aggrandizement of others in a manner that is both retaliatory and spiteful in reference to various slights (perceived or otherwise) for the purpose of some kind of "hoisted by my own petard" type, conceptual, punishment.

That's my problem.

My problem with determinism

Is how it's supposed existence is demonstrated, right? They usually use this binary prompt-response scenario. Like "Think of a city. Now did you pick the the specific city or was it random?" And I think that's the wrong way to conceptualize it.

Hym "So, my problem with determinism (at least in this example of determinism) is that although I don't choose the specific city, I still activate the 'mode' that searches for city and I can choose not to do it and prevent a city from coming to mind OR I can misfire. It's like a hat with with slips of paper in it and, on the slips of paper, are the names of cities. Now, you can prompt me to think of 'city.' I can choose to reach into the hat. And only then do I get a random city. But what I DON'T get is 'Nissan' or 'helicopter' or 'banana' or 'dog.' I activate the mode that searches for city and I reach into the hat. See, as I have it conceptualized, thought exists in this nebulous, un-articulated format. So, to get language I need to activate some kind of process. And prompt response ISN'T THE SAME as what I'm doing when I'm monologing. I'm running that nebulous, un-articulated thought-matter through a lexicon that corresponds with my native language. But I am that which activates modes. I can can turn it on or off like a switch. It can also misfire while I'm not paying attention. So, yeah... I think it's a failure to properly conceptualize and a failure to compartmentalize."

not my problem

A phrase indicating that one doesn’t care about someone’s problem, and feels no responsibility to help fix it. Often used to disguise the fact that while it’s not your problem, it *is* your *fault*.

example 1 (disguising fault):
“Your slanderous article has ruined my good name! I demand that you retract it.”
“Not my problem.”

example 2 (not one’s fault):
Right as I was leaving the building after quitting my sysadmin job, I heard the servers go down again. I didn’t turn back. It was not my problem any more.

not my problem

A really annoying string of words that people use when they don't want to admit responsibility for anything.

Sheila: "You used all the gas in my car! How do you expect me to get to work?!"
Jared: "Not my problem."
