I’m a rational, reasonable, logical man. Hardly ever absurd.
So, when a Bank of Canada deputy governor warned Canadians recently not to be spooked by “irrational fear” over the economy [full news article], I wondered, are you talking to me? Are you talking to me?
I checked my handy-dandy Concise Oxford Dictionary.
“Irrational - adj. unreasonable, illogical, absurd: not endowed with reason.”
I breathed a sigh of relief.
That doesn’t sound like me at all, especially as I think about the state of the Canadian or global economy.
I felt even better after comparing deputy governor Pierre Duguay’s photo with the most recent one of me.
Honestly. Who looks the more fearful? The banker or the biker?

Are you filled with irrational fear? Why or why not?
