Today, I was introduced to the Alan Watt’s philosophical concept of Prickles and Goo.

Prickly people are precise, rigorous, logical – they like everything chopped up and clear. Goo people like it vague, big picture, random, imprecise, incomplete and irrational…They always argue with each other but what they don’t realize is neither one of them can take their position without their opposition being there…Life is not prickles or goo, its gooey-prickles or prickly-goo.
