Always look for the simplest sollution

I left the white corridor and turned left. I was hungry and I wanted to get rid of this feeling immediately. Togerther with Natalia we passed another school corridor and stopped by the kiosk. I can't remember what I wanted to buy. I do remember that two guys we serving us. They started to behave just as my student does - "What does it mean that wood is uncountable? It can't be a substance. It has knags. Knags in wood. You can count knags!" One of them must've said something that really annoyed me because I gave him a lecture on Occam's razor theory to prove that one shoudn't be a pseudo-philosopher. They both looked at me as if I had been mad. But it is true! When you hear hoof-beat, what comes to your mind is a horse not a zebra! I was upset that I couldn't just stay calm. I was upset I made a fool of myself. Again.
