Quote: I'd Rather People Think I Think They're Dumb, Than Confirm It.

The title is just a shorter version for easy consumption. The following extended quote explains just a little more:

"I'd rather people think I think they're dumb, than to confirm I think they are."

This came up when I was trying to explain something. I either had to assume they didn't know something "basic", or ask them if they knew of the said something that was "common knowledge".

A way to combat this: http://xkcd.com/1053/

Question = Questions + Statements; Answer = 2 * Answer

Every time a question is asked, a statement is also being made. A lot of times, when a question is asked, it is actually another question that is really asked. And, another question (in addition) is always answered.

Think about it.
