"All Generalizations are bad"
-R.H. Grenier
This is one of my favorite quotes. It sums up a lot of notions about generalizations....and I like the play on words. I think that sometimes generalizations are OK, for example: I generally use commas like confetti. It doesn't mean that I, always, use, a lot, of, commas, (Side note: I turned in my final paper in class and really tried hard to not use too many commas and to use them properly, but then I got it back and there were so many commas that I needed to use! I think I am getting the hang of it though!). But lumping people into one way of being is not the way to use generalization. For myself I know that this is hard to catch in some instances when it would be easier to generalize...But I think that I am getting better at this more than I am for my comma usage!
Here are some random finds for you to enjoy :-)
I just might have to make these!
Wow...are you kidding me?
