the bus stop sunk cost fallacy

your scheduled bus did not show up. you’ve already waited 20 minutes. it’s over half a mile to a different line’s bus stop. do you leave, knowing that the bus you’re waiting for might show up as soon as you do? the next scheduled bus is 20 minutes out. it may also not show up. it’s so cold that you long since lost feeling in your extremities. you once again consider the merits of tracking down the president of the transit agency. for a chat. you’ve already waited 20 minutes.

i’m going to say something so brave and controversial on this gay sex blog and it is that the episode of New Girl where Nick and Jess get locked behind the iron curtain until they kiss but they WON’T because they are TOO IN LOVE and Nick is like ‘not like this’ and jess doesn’t know what he means and then at the very end of the episode he just GRABS her and KISSES THE SHIT OUT OF HER and then he says ‘I meant something like that’ and just WALKS OFF is one of the greatest romantic episode arcs on tv ever. fucking perfect no notes sometimes straight people do good stuff after all.
