Taking things for granted is a human vice. A particularity that unites us and makes us special. For example, we believe in stubborn inertia that shaving makes hair grow stronger, that Frankenstein is the name of the monster, that camels carry water in their humps and that onomatopoeias, which guide us through life with their funny linguistic imitation, are The same for everyone.
ERROR! Shaving has no effect on hair growth, Frankenstein is the name of the doctor who gave life to the monster, camels only reserve lipid nutrients in their gibbons and onomatopoeias are from a father or mother depending on the country you visit or language you master Lets go see it.
