tragedy of the commons

The unfortunate predicament caused when a public resource, such as a natural resource like land or game, is consumed by everyone but maintained by no one.

Everyone feels they have the right to consume because they are part of the public, but no one feels it their responsibility to maintain it because they are not individually accountable.

Friend: "What the fuck did you think would happen, dumbass! Use your common sense!"

2.(conversation cont.) Dumbass: "What's common sense?"

Common Sense

Knowledge that is common only amongst those who have some...

It's common sense (c.s.)...

-Not to tailgate. (Not c.s. if you've never ran into someone else's trunk.)
-Not to lean over a rail. (Not c.s. if you haven't leaned over and busted your face before.)
-Not to feed the wild animals. (Not c.s. unless you're missing a hand or two.)

common sense

something most people don't have.
more of the world doesn't have common sense,
than people in the world that do have it.
it's something that should explain itself.
obviously.

common sense only tells you that you should know what common sense is.

Common Sense

Traditional: Traditional logic that will lead you and everyone else to the same conclusion and action

Politically: Involves preaching on graves and shoving dead children in your face to get their political policy to get passed. Traditional common sense is thrown out the window in favor of irrational emotional appeal

Traditional: Common sense dictates ff I stick my finger into the fire it will get burnt
Politically: ZOMG THINK OF ALL THE DEAD CHILDREN BAN EVERYTHING BECAUSE MUH FEELINZ IT IS COMMON SENSE REFORM. MOMS DEMAND COMMON SENSE REFORMS DEMANDS IT
