Mistackes? Bah, I certainly don’t make them. I am blessed to be a
perfect being, void of blemishing inadequacies. I laugh at the tepid,
drooping face of chance and her failing aroma. She doesn’t touch me! I
don’t smell her! Mwuahaha!
You hastily assume that I am wrong and that I must have made at least
one mistake in my life. Maybe, you might think, I am insane. I assure
you: a feeble mind like yours would come to such a thought.
Paradoxically and subsequently, beyond all energies of a world in which
the sun most positively revolves around (because I, along with China, am
the center of the universe), I am consummate. I am a god. The
erroneous events that you blunderingly coin “mistakes” are simply
purposeful actions taken so that you may deem me human and I may easily
assimilate into your meager culture.
For instance, just a moment ago when I was casting polyacrylimide
gels in lab, you think that I forgot to degas the solution before adding
the hardening substrates. However, you brutes are incorrect! I
intentionally neglected this step because I enjoy being in lab during
the summer and wanted to spend a few more trite hours in slaving
captivity.
Similarly, earlier this week, you think I broke a couple of
graduated cylinders because I was carrying too many objects at one time
and they slipped through my hands. Again, you brutes are in the wrong!
I forcefully threw these worthless pieces of pyrex glass at the ground
for they did not measure out 50 mL to my satisfaction.
The automobile that I use as a means of translocation was flooded
the other day because I ignored to shut the windows during a powerful
thunderstorm. You think this a mistake? I assure twas not! I take
pleasure in blow-drying my car and airing it out for a full week. I
bask in the glory of wet seats and moldy upholstery.
Although I am indeed perfect, I did come from human parents. Both
natively speak Vietnamese. As a child, I refused to learn such an
abominable language, for English is the one true language of a god! To
this day you may term me as “confused” when relatives come over and
speak in their native tongues. Howbeit, I remain resolved in my
approval of English as the best language ever.
For one more example of my perfection, I draw upon the scar upon my
elbow. I was riding down a steep hill on a bicycle of which I refused
to replace the brakes of. You immediately bear the idea that a
reckless, young, and hasty teenager smashed into a neighbor’s mailbox,
obliterating the box and his arm. Yet, again, you are incorrect! I
plainly rode the un-tuned, broken bike to get rid of such an ugly
mailing apparatus. I was noble enough to sacrifice my arm to save the
neighborhood from this eyesore.
Ending my prompt, I reiterate that I have never made a mistacke in
my entire life because:
Humans make mistakes.
I don’t make mistakes.
Thus, I am a god. QED
“Humans make mistakes.
I don’t make mistakes.”
This statement does not imply you are a god, it simply implies you aren’t human.
Statement:
- If I am human, then I make mistakes.
Contrapositive (logically equivalent to above statement)
- If I do NOT make mistakes, then I am NOT human.
Thus, you are not human. You could be a dog, cat, chair, lizard, toilet, etc, not necessarily a god.

Yes, your logic is correct, sir. However, I was writing on the satirical approach that my logic WOULD be flawed even though I was supposing that I was perfect; thereby paradoxically (and hopefully humorously) asserting that I am indeed flawed and DO make mistakes.
But thanks for reading and picking up on this! You are better at catching fallacies than most people!

I did find your article humorous and I do understand the context of the statement. I am glad you didn’t misconstrue my criticism as me trying to be a jerk. That was certainly not the intent.

I hope that the awkwardness of me finding this blog through your facebook does not conflict with the cool factor. Nonetheless, after reading about your godly experiences, it made me laugh. Another acheivement you could add to the list was when you remembered to leave your wallet in your backpack before leaving. (Wink) Who needs that thing anyway.
