I'd be the first person to admit that when I make an assumption I usually assume that I'm correct.
Even if it contradicts reality.
I'm uncertain as to whether this is a flaw or feature of my personality. _________________ "Our products just aren't engineered for security."

So I assume then that for every assumption you make, you are actually making _two_ assumptions? _________________ Give a guy a gun, he thinks he's Superman. Give him two and he thinks he's God. - Superintendant Pang, Lashou shentan (a.k.a. Hard-Boiled)

So, you assume that FD assumes that when he assumes, he assumes he assumes he assumes correctly?  _________________ <Paolo|Work> anything that has to do with Java is by definition stupid

That's what I assume he assumes. _________________ My mind's slacking process has real-time priority.

You shouldn't make assumptions! It makes an "ass" out of "u" and "umption"! _________________ "Our products just aren't engineered for security."
