On Eating That Marshmallow In the constitution of the rational being I can see no virtue that counters justice: but I do see the counter to pleasure – self-control. BOOK 8 – 39 Sometimes when I’m reading stuff, I’ll come across a little nugget that I find fascinating, something that I’ve never heard about before; like The Standford Marshmellow experiment. I’ll get mad-excited, then want to go and tell everyone about it, as if I’d discovered it myself. One of the little draw-backs of this, which I’ve found-out, many times, is that when you tell people about your major-findings, who are themselves a bit educated, or a bit cultured, they go, ‘yea, everyone knows about that’ and I end up feeling and looking like a bellend; even if the thing itself, like the Standford Marshemellow experiment, is worth getting mad-excited about.
