One of my personal cognitive biases is that I take bad feedback much more seriously than good feedback. It happens a lot when I play the violin- a note slightly out of tune might ruin a performance for me, even though the phrase and the meaning of the music was not interupted at all.
Same thing when I get a paper back- a few grammatical corrections here or there make me feel like an idiot, and somehow cancel out the fact that I came up with original ideas and argued them cogently.
So it goes with Babble. So many nice people, so many nice things. And yet...
bye babble. don't worry about me. Sorry I've been such a diva. Taking up too much space. It's not "all about me, you know".
