    No, I said something more like “if you make your preferences so limited that you discount 99.5% of your possibilities, you’re going to find yourself with very few options.” Which is, more or less, a truism.

    Sorry I hurt you.

      The more common viewpoint which actually deserves criticism is “I was born here and that makes it the best place so I would never travel or live anywhere else. I prefer exactly one 200 mile radius, forever”.

      This viewpoint is very common in the “99.5%” of the world I’m “missing out on”

        ? Yes, I suppose that would deserve criticism. There are innumerable common viewpoints about all kinds of things that probably deserve criticism, but I don’t think we have the space or time to litigate them all here…again, this is a comment thread responding to the original post…
