No, I do not agree. Common sense is a basic, it is sometimes so basic that I am not familiar with certain terms. I do not play, my way of thinking is beyond. I think different, let me explain, I shall simplify : If you were walking past an old lady waiting public transport, to wit Bus/coach and she says "excuse me, do you know what time it is" ? Knowing your way of thinking and assuming you were wearing a watch, (that was not broken and set at the correct time, in your locus zone) you would most likely answer her request kindly and correctly. But I think differently, to the same question I would reply, "yes I do. It is an abstract fundamental concept, a category of sense, if you will, involving the recognition of an idea of before and after, past, present and future.. regarded theoretically as having a beginning and an end, as something limited by the duration of the external universe, as contrasted with eternity. However, not withstanding here-tofore, I surmise that your original misconstrued query relates not to the metaphyscial concept of time per say, but rather to its mode of computing, ie its reckoning, in the chronographical sense." at this juncture I would offer some advice to help her "specifically your question could be precise as follows... A-hem (Am I in possession of knowledge relating to the present particular hour of the day and, If relevant, the fraction thereof, as reckoned in this given latitude? )

"While it is theoretically possible to direct a quadruped of the genus equus to a nearby source of liquid refreshment, it does not necessarily follow that one can coerce said equestrian to imbibe."
-an old excersise of mine in making something simple into something ridiculous.

I am pleased that some one is able to bring themself to a disipline which allows them a 2nd degree belt.

The reality is if you are not willing to use the profeciency it is worth nothing. A person who has no training will win the battle, because he/she has no rules.

Not really. When caught off guard the tendency is always to freeze. Training takes over at those moments. This is true of pilots as well - and musicians.

There is a word for that sort of behavior. I don't use that kind of language in public.

It's an attempt to introduce a 4chan meme, don't ask me why.

The meme can be amusing if one has enough command of the language to pull if off. And is, you know, actually funny.
