The Ultimate Road Trip Playlist - 50 Best Road Trip Songs&|&The Jetpacker - StumbleUpon No road trip is complete without a playlist of songs that capture the spirit of traveling on the open road. So we’ve compiled a list of the 50 best road trip songs . In order to make this be-all end-all totally definitive list that all other lists look up to, the songs had to meet the following criteria: a.) encompass the excitement and freedom of road tripping b.) make the time pass faster c.) keep you awake without the assistance of questionably legal pills named “No Doze” d.) contain lyrics so singable that you’ll legitimately consider trying out for the next “American Idol” e.) keep you distracted long enough to make you forget you need to pee (which subsequently means stopping at a heinous rest stop where the bathroom stalls are tagged with death threats and truckers hit on you) f.) drown out the sound of your annoying friend who complains about a developing deep vein thrombosis from being crammed in the backseat (tough it up!) 50.

Dunning-Kruger Effect: Why You Doubt Your Strengths Bertrand Russel once said, “The trouble with the world is that the stupid are cocksure and the intelligent are full of doubt.” With High Existence being the the blog that it is, I think I can safely assume that the majority of you belong to the latter group. So I figured I would tell you why you tend to doubt your strengths so illogically despite being an intelligent, rational person. It’s called the Dunning-Kruger Effect, a cognitive bias in which “people reach erroneous conclusions and make unfortunate choices but their incompetence robs them of the metacognitive ability to realize it.” For all of you smarties currently doubting your ability to comprehend this effect, it means that competent people doubt their abilities while incompetent people overestimate their abilities. The intelligent falsely assume that others have equal understanding, which is why being smart, beautiful or talented can actually result in lower self-confidence. Here’s a good real world example. P.S.

Atheist Fundamentalists I am prothelsized to constantly by atheist friends, both on Facebook and in my life, things I never do – I am told that they are doing this as some form of protest for equality. Yet, these very same people take offense to anyone putting up anything religious on their Facebook page.I had an atheist friend say to me he was insulted and angry that religious people/colleagues no longer wanted to talk or debate with him – when his intent in his own words ‘was to tear them a new a-hole!’ Sounds like you need new ‘friends.’ And did it ever occur to you that all the atheists you know are in-your-face about their atheism because you don’t HEAR from the ones who aren’t? I have to disagree again. Further, while I might have a ‘belief system’, it can’t be compared to a ‘religious’ or ‘spriritual’ ‘belief system,’ which is something else entirely. “I don’t think all humans are bad. So you see, while the lengthy non-beliefs might be true statements, they are NOT part of my belief system.
