A. One night before a farmer killed his chicken, he fed it and said unconsciously: Eat up, this is your last meal!
The next day, he found the chicken lying dead with a note: I've already taken rat poison, you can't eat me now, my mother isn't someone to be messed with either.
Once your opponent knows about your decision, they will make a decision that is most beneficial to them. —— Nash Equilibrium Theory
Therefore, confidentiality and information security are very important.

B. The fish said: I keep my eyes open all the time so that you will always be in my sight!
The water said: I keep flowing endlessly so that I can embrace you forever!!
The pot said: You're both almost cooked, and you're still talking nonsense!!!
When the constraints change, the original gains suddenly turn into costs. If life is on the stove, the cost is naturally high.

C. Why do men like new things and get tired of old ones?
There is a famous Gossen's Law in economics that can explain this —— the satisfaction brought by repeated enjoyment of the same thing will continuously decrease; the satisfaction obtained from the first and second times of the same enjoyment is the greatest.

D. Who gets hurt more easily in a relationship, men or women?
Being hurt means investing too much but gaining too little, which results in losses. The main reason for a company's loss should be its lack of competitiveness. If there is not enough absolute advantage, then try to discover your own advantages. For example, Chinese enterprises selling textiles to European and American countries is naturally easy, but if they insist on selling cars to Europe and America, they will definitely get hurt.
If one can disregard losses, then they probably won't get hurt. Of course, it's difficult to reach such a realm, only some of our state-owned enterprises can achieve it.

E. Why can't there be polygamy or polyandry?
Polygamy or polyandry would disrupt market equilibrium. Some handsome and rich bachelors might form a market monopoly, just like telecommunications and railways, and people would constantly curse them. In mild cases, it could cause endocrine disorders, and in severe cases, it could lead to social disharmony.
Monogamy has already formed a Pareto Optimal.

F. On an airplane,
The crow said to the flight attendant: Bring me a glass of water!
The pig heard it and imitated: Bring me a glass of water too!
The flight attendant threw the pig and the crow out of the cabin,
The crow laughed at the pig: Foolish, right? I can fly!
External factors are constraint conditions, and personal ability is also a constraint condition, often more important. Therefore, what others can succeed in, may not necessarily be something you can succeed in.

G. A chimpanzee accidentally stepped on the feces left by a gibbon, and the gibbon gently and carefully helped her clean it off.
Later, they fell in love, and when others asked how they got together, the chimpanzee sighed and said: Gibbon poop! It's all because of the gibbon poop!
Path dependence in economics refers to the fact that your current choice is determined by your previous choice, and if you want to change the path, the cost will be so high that you don't want to change.
