Selection Bias - its everywhere...

This is a new term that we learnt this term, and by Jove! Its omnipresent... Take the following examples from daily life -
1. "Yaar pehle kya maza aata tha job/ghar/college".. Dude you can't see the future, and present (bcoz of the statement's context is sad) so past can ONLY be good...

2. "Yaar confused.. people say X major is not that beneficial... I am ok with current Y major".. Well if all the people you asked 'X' about were all frust with X so how can they??

Amazing concept!!
