calimacMike Glyer tells an anecdote about going out for pizza. In this instance it was just a joke - the two outlets he was asked to choose between were, unknown to him, almost adjacent - but it illustrates something that really irritates me.
I hate it when people ask me to make a choice between two options I know nothing about, without providing me any basis on which to make that choice. This often comes up in much more serious contexts than going out for pizza, especially medical ones. And then when I ask for guidance, all I'm told is "It's your choice." I know it's my choice! I'm trying to gather information with which to make that choice!
